Message: <blockquote data-quote="Damror" data-source="post: 55243" data-attributes="member: 572">Unless you have evasion, of course (which I do). In that case all the images would leap out of the way of an AoE spell, just like the caster does (provided he makes his Ref save). Right??  I've also got the spell Shield, which provideds +3 bonus to Ref saves against attacks that affect an area. So it's a good bet that I'll be evading most AoE spells.  You're right though, AoE spells are something I hadn't considered. Given the fact that I've got evasion and good Ref saves though, I think it's not very likely to occur. True seeing is probably the bigger threat still, because it negates both spells. I can't think of any other tactic or ability that would do that (besides tremor sense and blind sight). I suppose dispel magic would work too. Gas attacks and enchantment spells would get past it too.   Hmm. it does have a few holes in it, which means it's balanced. But I can block several of those holes. flying would negate tremor sense. Silence would minimize blind sight.  Evasion limits AoE spells. There isn't much I can do about dispel magic though, or gas attacks. My Will saves are also my worst. Enchantments are my character's achilles' heel. As I advance in sorcerer they will get better though, but even at high levels, they are not great. Thanks for the comments everyone. I'm glad to know the mirror image/displacement combo will work. Added to my other combos, this will make my character a virtual one-man-army. My DM already hates it, and he hasn't seen anything yet. Wait till I start doing 17-46 points of damage per single, non-critical, flanking attack with a +36 total attack bonus on my first attack. Not to mention my 34+ AC augmented by the displacement/mirror image tactic. Oh, and I'll be hasted too..... ... and that's just at 10th level (approximately). By the time he's 15th he'll be even more ridiculous. Right now though, he's only 7th level, so I have to wait....   Are there any other comments on the mirror image/displacement combo???</blockquote>
