Controlled Blink is a level 8 Translocations spell which warps you to a nearby open space of your choice in your LOS. The space must be somewhere visible, not deep water or lava, and cannot be behind a translucent wall. Controlled Blink behaves much like a scroll of blinking. While carrying the Orb of Zot, Controlled Blink functions like a plain, uncontrolled Blink.
Tips & Tricks
- For stabbers, it can be very useful to know the noise grid of this spell. The "@" character is the position where you land after blinking, and the "§" characters are cells where the noise will be heard.
