How about letting us use Time Skip on Escorts?

Make it do no damage, but still cause the time out, for friendlies. Then we can put Escorts in the corner while we clean things up.

I'll see if I have time to look into this. I worry that removing the escort from the game will mess with the quest logic though.

Wouldn't the big issue be people leaving the zone with escorts timeskipped? Unless timeskipping uses the same logic as entering a portal. Otherwise most the quest logic should be tied to level load/spawning and death, right?

Oh I missed the zero damage part.

Time Skip looks like it currently works on escorts. But it's a violent spell. Like throwing a stone across water. I don't see why it should be less violent for friendly targets.

Chronomancers have a few other ways of moving escorts around, both currently and in 1.3.

Not sure they really need a free pass.
