[QUOTE="Zenon, post: 102425, member: 352"] Let's put it here so everyone can see what we're looking at: There are several ways around this spell, however, disbelief is not an option. You stated the rogue was in "battle", so striking an image succesfully (only needing to make a melee touch hit for the AC needed) will automatically dispell the image struck. You can do this with melee, thrown or ranged weapons. However, the best bet for your rogue probably would have been to shut his eyes and let his Listen skill guide him to the targets. Granted, it's not perfect, but it can be done. For wizards and sorcerers it's a little easier, dump a magic missile barrage into the mirror images, one missile per image (and the caster may be included in there). When the missile hits and it's an image, it goes away automatically. If one actually happens to randomly hit the caster, he won't go away and you just pinpointed him for your friends until he gets to move/go on his round again and can mix himself back up with the images. Also a Dispel Magic will take care of it, as will the images entering a Minor or Major Globe of Invulnerability or Antimagic Shell. I know the mage info has no bearing on what your rogue could do. Also, remember that there are some creatures who are immune to figments (Duegar (grey dwarf)? Barghest? I can't remember, I was just looking at it last night....) so mirror image would have no effect on them. They'll be able to "see the real you". [/QUOTE]
