[QUOTE="mojoutd, post: 4043691, member: 37410"] Okay, 2 Questions. 1. How many players can stand in a five foot square. I know you can move through friendly space, but In terms of a situation. How many players can technically fit into a five foot square. I was under the impression it would be ONE, exactly. 2 Secondly, when mirror image is cast, one of my players, says to me, He centers all his images around him inside the Five foot square. I immediately lost it. And here's why. 1. Mirror Image functions like this. When you cast it it creates SEVERAL Dupilcates of yourself. They all then do the same thing as you,, move the same way, so that when people lookor your enemies try to hit you, they don't know which one is you. The Writing on the spell is vague, but I'm fairly sure that the images don't do different stuff. They all move in exact the same way as you. The spell says something that Images can move through each other. But why would they move through each other? You take a step left, and at the same timeevery other image takes a step left. I mean it would be plumb retarded to place an image standing in an opposite direction as you, since it does the same thing as you? The villian would immediately know that image wasn't you? In summation, the Spell works because the images mimic everything you do. It confuses the Enemy because each one of the images COULD be you. What is the purpose of blending them around you? Especially if you are situated in one five foot square, along with your images. What's to keep your enemy from Targeting the Five foot square that every image seems to be standing in? I mean, do you see the stupidity of placing them all in one five foot swuare? all that would create is a blob of images in one area, and wouldn't confuse the enemy at all. He would simply focus his attack dead center and be able to target you? Right? Basically, is the player abusing the Spell? I believe him to be. The problem is the language on the spell is Vague, cause it says something like, Each image must be within 5 foot of the caster or another image. I really need an answer about this. [/QUOTE]
