The illusionist is my favorite spellcaster, always has been. I have discovered through the years that the other problem with playing one is having a GM that understands the art of using illusion spells to achieve results. I have had some really great GM's through the years, and I have had some crappy ones that immediately have your foes find away around your spells. That being said, I agree with Malin Genie. The best way to go about it is to redefine the spell lists, or to change the schools of spells such as the Prismatics, to make them Illusions. It's really just a cosmetic approach. If you really wanted to make it like the 1E Illusionist, you just take the illusion spells away from the other wizards and give the Illusionist his own class-based spell list.</p></blockquote><p></p>
