The Crimson Binome
Hero
Why are you assuming that anyone would see a Mirror Image, and respond by making normal attacks against it? Isn't that playing right into their plan?
I always figured that this spell, much like any source of Disadvantage, works primarily by disincentivizing the enemy from attacking you in the first place. The ogre isn't going to risk wasting a big swing on something it probably can't hit, but the kobolds who have numbers on their side will spend their attacks because they're contributing toward the goal of making you hittable.
