Spell dance dimension door ability question.


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

"At 9th level, the spell dancer may instead take a swift action to use dimension door as a spell-like ability once during a spelldance."

The wording of this gave me the impression that this is a once per day ability, especially since it references another ability in the same paragraph as being once per spelldance, and that a 9th level spell dancer that could have 10 dimension doors in a day seemed a little op. Could I get a clarification on this?

Thanks

There is nothing in the wording that would limit it to once per day. I don't see it as being more powerful then a teleportation wizard's shift ability. The distance is greater, but there is the limitation of once per spelldance.

Don't forget to take dimensional agility. You now still have all your other actions besides swift.

That seems to be the consensus. Must be my MTG days. They put it in the singular of once during a spelldance, instead of once during each spelldance. Confusing wording to me
