What, are you going to constantly pit the party (starting at level 3 for wizards) against dispel-magic capable enemies with area-attack spells, necessarily at least 2 of them in the NPC enemy group?It's a 2nd level spell.  Yet it requires the GM to jump through many hoops to create an enemy that is capable of doing damage to the mirror imaged PC without wasting 2-3 rounds running around, attacking, dispelling 1-2 figments a round, etc.  One 2nd level spell should not cause such ridiculous pain ( on the part of the GM).</blockquote>
