Remove Gold Cost from Archmage Teleport/Greater Teleport Spell-like Abilities

Unread post by kitteninablender »

Pretty straightforward.

Archmage abilities are true spell-like abilities. Which means they should eschew materials.

I know Teleport doesn't have a material component in PnP, but, I feel like removing the material component from an Archmage's Teleportation SLA's would actually make these SLA's worth taking, and considering at most would be 3x a day I hardly consider them abusable.

Thoughts?

Me: *Teleports 500 miles for 2000gp*

Friend: *Caravans 500 miles for 50gp and arrives at the same time*

Me: "Er...."

Teleport is not the problem here.

For me, when you have to run 10 mins between cities is the most immersive, but I can see how that isn't everyone's idea of fun. It would suck if you could only squeeze in 20 mins to play and your friends were on the other side of Faerun.

If there were no caravans and the distances were indeed greater then the cost of Teleport might be justifiable.

So I support this suggestion AND the removal of cost for all teleportation :D
