[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 1984279, member: 2011"] Thanks for the quote. I really have no problem with this for Blur. I have a big problem with it for Displacement. What this is saying is that the [b]real mirror image[/b] is two feet away from the [b]displaced mirror image[/b] and cannot be seen. Hence, the real image is invisible and cannot be seen (just like the caster) and a displaced image of it is two feet away (just like the caster). This is not a visual effect on top of the caster like Invisibility or Blur. This is an illusionary effect moved two feet away. Unlike Invisibility or Blur, the Mirror Image is not just emulating the visual effect on top of the caster. It is also emulating an illusion two feet away. That sounds like it is way beyond the abilities of the description of Mirror Image. IMO. In this case, the magic of Displacement is applying directly to the images, as opposed to the Blur and Invisibility cases where the magic of Mirror Image is emulating the visual effect of those spells. In any case, WotC ruled as they did. It does not follow the targeting rules of spells, but c'est la guerre. [/QUOTE]
