Teleportation bug?

[Argumantive]

Used a teleport scroll today, which in turn failed the attempt on a nat 20 concentration roll vs dc of 23 (was teleporting from soubar to the FAI, the roll was 37 when con stat is 17). the 5% of Error is a nat 1 roll I assume.

Does it work as intended, or did it malfunction?

[Endelyon]

It's working as intended. Regular teleport has a 5% chance of failure even when you pass the check, and this 1d20 is rolled silently so occasionally it will seem like your teleport should have succeeded but still failed.

Greater Teleport alternatively does not have this chance to automatically fail.

As per Endelyon; happens to the best of us from time to time. You just gotta wait your hour and try again (unless cooldowns are actually bugged like i was informed recently, but I can't be bothered wasting another 850gp to test that).

[Argumantive]

Thanks for the clarification, and the cooldowns seem bugged, I can just keep teleporting around with the scrolls I use Oo

[Endelyon]

We had another report of that as well. We'll look into getting it fixed. In the mean time feel free to teleport around at your heart's desire but don't get your hopes up that it will stay that way in the long run.

Would it be worth it to consider, instead of a flat 30 minute or 1 RL hour cooldown, that successive Teleports WITHIN that timeframe, gain increasingly difficult DCs?

Thus, there is a risk vs reward option for those wanting to blow their coin wad trying to utilize multiple teleports.

[Glowfire]

I would rather see a 30 mins cooldown than 1 hour, if a cooldown is necessary. 1 hour can feel like a long time while patiently waiting somewhere.

That awkward moment when you curse your foes, grab the damsel, and with a dashing display teleport away... 5 foot away...
