Is misty step bugged?

[tm0Lif3]

Why it needs movement to cast misty step? i don't get it? it seems that it has to run to that target area only it can misty step?

That or your path to the point you want to go to is out of sight and you need to move a bit to get there. AFAIK it's working as intended post patch 3, was using it last night.

Works fine post patch.

That large white circle when you are casting it is the max distance. If it shows the movement indicator it means you are out of range.

You also have to be able to basically see the target landing point. So if you don't see the small white circle where you want to go, it means you cannot see the landing point.

Misty Step is mostly useless to me anyway. My character can jump anywhere they can misty step to, and without automatically splitting the party.

About the only way to reliably transport the party is to make sure at least two members have Dimension Door...

Oh yeah, bonus points for Dimension Door being impossible to cast if you don't bring someone with you. But then I guess that is just Misty Step.

There are several items/skills in game that prevents you from being teleported with dimensions door.

Also mistystep doesn't provoke attacks of opertunity nor does it cost movement (unlike jump) and you can teleport to areas you cant jump through.

It's a different spell for different occasions, if you don't like it simply don't use it.

@OP: the spell requires line of sight, that is most likely why it says you are out of movement

Ye, i noticed that weird stuff before patch. Jumped into lava to pick stuff, but couldn't go back with Misty step for some reason. Had to use dimension door.

Interesting.

The boss ended up in the lava for me as well. Found the sweet spot on the ledge and jumped in on top of him with high hp character in turn-based mode. Looted him, then Misty Step to high ledge directly behind the jump off point. Worked fine. :)

I'm more annoyed because I used Misty step previously to get through some closed doors. Misty step is almost entirely useless if it's not able to be used to go somewhere you "Can't see" after the newest patch I can't even use burrow to go behind the hidden wall of Wyrms gate temple. Bloody bites, I'm digging a hole and I can with my camera see the other side why can't I select it as a place to burrow to at the least with my druid. It sucks even more so cuz I used it in act 2 to get past a "Certain arcane lock"
And I'm now worried that that is "Fixed"
As that would very much bite

You are not supposed to use that to get through closed solid doors, though.
