Dimension Door

Tips

 * There is no XP penalty since the adventure is not exited.
 * There is no waiting time (unlike recalling) although there may be a loading screen if you are far enough from the quest entrance.
 * The teleport cannot be interrupted by monster attacks (Some crowd control effects can still stop you).
 * Monsters, players, and projectiles are not blocked by the dimension door, but only players may use it. Dead players and monsters cannot use it.
 * You can select yourself (F1) to cast the door right in front of you.
 * Similar to most persistent spells, dimension door disappears if the caster move out of range, dies or leaves the instance while it is up.
 * However unlike other persistent spells which instantly dissipate, Dimension Doors will linger for 6 seconds after the caster leaves the area. It will however instantly disappear if he dies.

This spell offers a unique benefit often valuable in quests and it is frequently requested from arcane casters. Situations where dimension door is useful include:


 * Escaping a battle which has turned unfavorable to the party.
 * Reaccessing certain part of the quest which otherwise has become inaccessible.
 * Saving time so that you don't have to walk back to the entrance, e.g. to clear another dungeon wing.

Some quests, however, block off the entrance from the rest of the quest after certain conditions are met. It would be inadvisable to cast Dimension Door after the rest of the quest has been made inaccessible from the starting point as players who use it would become trapped. Quests where the entrance can trap Dimension Door users include:
 * A Vision of Destruction
 * The Shroud

Dimension door scrolls cannot be bought in shops (but are commonly found in random treasure). Therefore, it is recommended that wizards select this spell during level-up.
