you cannot go to the world map with runic/infusion saturation afaik
Umm... my experience testifies to the countrary. My last TW avoided like 20 patrols with a simple 4 step method of:
1# shield up
2# temporal wake (or whatever it's called) anywhere near center of the map, preferably stunning some mage on the way
3# if i see exit - dimension step away. if i do not see it, dim nearby predicted location
4# movement infusion to get straight to the place
5# wild infusion/relentless persuit to clear any affects
6# off we go to the map, saturation effects not barring it in any way.
7# voila, no more patrol.

It used to be that the saturations would stop you leaving the level till we begged DarkGod to change it. These days it's much easier to get out of ambushes with movement infusions or invisibility runes.
