[QUOTE="Murrdox, post: 866434, member: 10131"] [b]Re: Re: Great Cleave or Whirlwind Attack vs. Mirror Image[/b] As could I.... Either you get to make an attack against ALL the images, or you only get ONE attack from your whirlwind, and you still have to decide which image to direct your attack towards. I think the key issue here is whether or not the images all count as separate targets or not. A) If the Images are NOT all separate targets, then you have ONE target, with 1d4+1 per level SUB-Targets - of which you must choose one when you direct your attack towards the MAIN target. Only one of the sub-targets is actually the wizard. In this case, you get ONE whirlwind attack at the main target, and you must decide which sub-target to direct the attack at. B) On the other hand, if the images ARE separate targets, then as long as they are all within 5' of you, you can take an attack against each one. I would rule B. I allow my players to split the missles of a magic missle spell to attack different images of a Mirror Image (Okay, I have 3 missles, and I see 5 wizards... I send my magic missles at Image #1, #2, and #3), which means each image is a target. As quoted before, the images count as "foes" and this would seem to indicate that they do count as targets, since you can cleave off them. [/QUOTE]
