In the description of the skill it says that you're supposed to end up behind the target, but when there's no room behind the target you end up on a random free spot close to the target.

On some other skills like Teleport you can't teleport someone that's effected by things like Fortification and you just get red text saying "Invalid Target"

How about doing that to the Scoundrel's Backlash skill when there's no room at the same elevation in the back stab indicator cone behind the target to make it true to the description and to prevent this from happening..

Red Prince started the Backlash attack where the red circle is, as you can see there's no room around the target anywhere, but where he was standing. And instead of it ending where he was standing when the skill was used, he ended up on the higher platform behind the target and being unable to make any meele attack due to elevation difference.

The fortify spell description does says that fortified targets cannot be teleported, but i think you wish that the teleport skill had this in the description too.

No, that's not what I said..

I suggested that the Backlash skill be changed so that it won't work unless you can actually get into a back stab position, meaning if you can't get into a position to do a back stab on it then you will just get "Invalid Target" when you point at the target. This to prevent what happened there on that screenshot and for the skill to be more true to the description.

It does say in the description..
"Jump over the enemy, landing behind their back and backstabbing them for [X] physical damage."

If the backside of the enemy isn't clear then you can even end up in front of the enemy, which doesn't even make sense with that description and getting backstabbing.
