Teleport on Console

Anyone felt underwhelming to tele with controller, i felt the range was a bit too short and more often than not, hit into walls to realize that i need to keep adjusting the stick to the right direction to tele.

Anyone got better tips to make tele more manageable with controller?

Don’t tele too quickly unless in danger. Tele, pause for a second, tele again. The pause gives you time to adjust your direction, if needed.

What I hate the most is blizzard very inaccurate with controller.

Yeah, unless you got a clear path that little pause helps a lot to keep the direction under control and not tele extra or into the unknown. But it has surprised me with some impressive jumps over gaps, saved me entire dungeon floors in ball runs.

If you wanna tele right next to an enemy for the Merc position them In the corners of your screen.

what do you mean?
Can you elaborate?

you always tele to the edge of your screen. So if you want to accurately teleport to a point, you can line up the corner of your screen to an enemy or whatever else. It comes in handy if you have a mercenary that you want to use to kill an element immune enemy with.

I actually wanted to tele to find way to next exit like doing Mephisto run

Then just go left of the way point

Hmm teleport works really good for me actually.

yes, i know, but it just felt very wonky when teleporting… range is short and not sure why i always keep teleporting to the same spot due to walls. Maybe i am just bad at it.

Are you pointing the stick all the way on your controller when teleporting? Because my range is long.

You mean tilting the stick all the to the max? i think i am, let me try again and see…

That is what I mean yes.

i dun have this issues with controller .maybe i rmb the maps designed , so i can switch analog before i tele next …
the only big problem is stair case . something block walk/running path , (especially in arcane sanctuary ) toon look stupid hahahaha, it will stand in front of stone/urn/ left n right ( the AI dunno move left / right maybe .
mouse is better

Yes, this is a problem to the point that people are reluctant to use the skill. I think a problem here is that even on PC, Blizzard was always weird in that it did NOT cause much damage to “ground zero” so to speak, but more around it. So you could aim it kind of off-center to your target and it’d work better.

But now with console, it always tries to target the highlighted monster.

What would help for everyone, PC and console alike, would be to change up how the Blizzard damage is distributed, so that it deals most in the center, and then thinning out radially.

Thinking of this, it may even be a bug that makes it deal damage in the opposite effect from the intended. Diablo 2 is actually full of stuff like this so it wouldn’t surprise me.

This is a good suggestion that would help the blizzard skill, but having played a fissure druid through normal, the auto targeting leaves a ton to be desired. I just wish they would leave in the auto-target, while allowing minute changes via right joystick. I mean, think about first-person shooters. At this point it’s almost assumed that left sick is movement and right stick is aim.

I hope auto target can be disable, so if it’s disable, the skill will be casted probably a fix distance from the direction you are facing, then i will play around with that to make my cast more accurate, rather than being all random casted, especially the traps.
