You gain the ability to enter a tree and move from inside it to inside another tree of the same kind within 500 feet. Both trees must be living and at least the same size as you. You must use 5 feet of movement to enter a tree. You instantly know the location of all other trees of the same kind within 500 feet and, as part of the move used to enter the tree, can either pass into one of those trees or step out of the tree you’re in. You appear in a spot of your choice within 5 feet of the destination tree, using another 5 feet of movement. If you have no movement left, you appear within 5 feet of the tree you entered.
You can use this transportation ability only once on each of your turns. You must end each turn outside a tree.
This is no different from the 2014 version why did they make a new one??
They removed the reference to rounds to use turns instead, which is more in line with combat mechanics, I guess.
I think they did this for most, if not all the spells in the basic rules and PHB of 2014. There are also some spells like the Summoning spells from Tasha, but it is not all of the Tasha spells. Regardless, not all these spells changed much from editions, especially a lot of the basic blasting spells, such as Burning Hands, which I think the only difference is a flavor text bit about the somatic component of the spell.
