    What I find most frustrating is that you can't manuever whislt falling.
    I keep trying to land on the airship dock or the top of the bank but it just won't let you move far laterally.

    PS definitely nice pic. As said above you should submit it for screenie of the week.

    Happens to me at least once a week. It's mildly annoying, but I have ended up with a Loading Screen of Death when trying to teleport out again before. :P

    This used to happen to me every time I jumped off the front (or maybe the back) of my guildship. I haven't tried jumping off the front (or back) of the ship in a while, but jumping off the side lands me in house D instead of the marketplace.

    On a lvl 20 monk and I had slow fall turned on.

    I took screenshots - nice aerial view of the marketplace. I thought that where I landed (marketplace/house D) was caused by the guildship moving out of range before I touched the water under it. Just a hypothesis... After U9, I seem to always end up in house D. I keep forgetting to try jumping off the front of the ship (or the back of the ship) to see if I can get back to the marketplace. Just not that high on my to-do list.

    I do, however, like to tell ship invitee noobs to jump off if they don't know about the navigator and I'm not onboard to show them. Feeds that tiny chaotic evil streak in me

    One of my favorite memories in this game was jumping out of VoN 6 and using the Royal Guard Mask just before you die-- and getting this misfire. It was like rubberbanding a 1000 feet straight up, and then featherfalling down. I think that't the only way to featherfall all the way down to the maket from VoN 6.

    i used to get a kick out of doing this in a full plate wearing wizard. then i found out teleport isnt affected by armour and the buzz wore off. now i just teleport without feather fall to at least make it a little exciting.

    5%?? wow! I must have terrible dice luck then.
    I get this 1 out of every 5 times I teleport or so.
    At first, I thought it was a bug. Then after reading the Oops screen, I realized it must be a built in feature. Kinda funny the first time, because you're like.. what the ???!!??

    Or just cast teleport 2nd time, or just have more than 100HP.
    I like quite like it, the look of town on full details from the sky is just great, and you can see flying airships etc.

    I honestly think it would be more amusing if you ended up in a random location on a failed teleport, but that's just me.

    I'd love this. Roll random map, then roll random coordinates. Hit teleport, suddenly dragons. Or maybe Horoth's bedroom. Either way, it'd be fun.

    It's fun when you try to teleport to the market, and the teleport fails.

    The fun part is failing again when trying to teleport whiling falling at rock speed after the first teleport failure.

    You'll be fine! Just jump up right before you hit the ground.

    Thats how I slip on my feather falling boots when I find myself suddenly falling and I can do it without looking at my keyboard with one hand. (easy enough since keys on same hand )

    From reading this I see many of you that must not know that the DDO store sells a wand of Teleport. So take the damage is about the most lame statement here, Since a level 1 player can buy the wand. As for the Opps it happens often with the wand..

    Love the feature but would like to see it expanded. Add a few extra wrong destinations.

    Deep underwater in the harbour.
    Stuck in a tomb in Deleras Graveyard (public instance) smash the door to get out.
    Korthos Island explorer.

    You get the idea.
