I wouldn't worry about slotting them untill later. At level 25, you likely have a better power to slot. However, if you hover all the time, might want to put an additional slot in it for more speed.|

Some of it really comes down to your build.

Do you have to improve it? No. 100 yds in an eyeblink is a nice speed. Endurance redux will do you better long-term.|

Do you WANT to improve it? Eventually, yes. Places like the Shard are just hella ridiculous to TP around at 100 yds a hop.
I 3-slotted mine and TP around 164 yds a hop. Coupled with one Endurance IO, and I've got an awesome ability to TP pretty much anywhere on a combat field, PVP or PVE, and have a good amount of "runaway" speed when being chased. Coupled with Hover for endurance recovery while I hover in mid-air, and all told it's a great thing.

You can go to the Shard and pick up the Fly Pack and use it for short bursts of extra speed.
Or, buy the GvE edition and get the jump pack which will give your Hover near flight-cap speeds for 30 seconds at a time.

Have they fixed that? Since otherwise, if you're attacked/attack someone in PVP, you're suppressed. For everyone else, it means "you're slower," for teleport it means "No travel power for you."

i think he means pursuit in PvE. In PvP teleport is still effectively worthless since there's currently no way to suppress teleport's range without suppressing the range on all powers, so it's simply disabled whenever you attack or get attacked.|

Also, i have a few characters who use the Teleport and Hover combo. Hover's endurance consumption is trivial, and not worth slotting for in my opinion, but since i tend to use Hover in combat i generally three-slot it for flight speed in addition to any other procs i fit into it.
My typical slotting in Teleport is 1 range and 1 endurance.
Clarification: Hover is nearly useless in PvP as an escape power, but it is an excellent alpha strike power.

No, still working that way. But usually, when I TP into a hot zone, things die. |

At least they used to... it's been a few months... rusty... *urk*Having that extra 60 yds in combat is still VERY handy however. Yes, Suppression kicks in, but it also kicks out. The trick is knowing how to work around that, I suppose.

I have a couple always-flying characters. 3 Fly enhancements in Hover and 1 Fly enhancement in Swift puts me up at a nice pace. Not quite as fast as Sprint, but faster than Swift with 1 Run enhancement. And faster than the majority of enemies in the game |
