[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1847932, member: 478"] Here's a "house rule" I am using, which might be interesting for you: When using Detect Magic to identify an illusion spell you must first pass the Will save to disbelieve against that spell (as if interacting with the illusion), and only if you succeed your attempt to identify the school of the spell will give you the correct reading. If you fail, you will detect another school, which has been determined by the caster during the casting of the illusion spell. This could maybe also be done for Spellcraft attempts to identify illusion spells cast during combat. Let them make the save in advance as part of the illusion. Otherwise, it's kinda hard to use Shadow Evocation against opposing spellcasters, for example, since they can substitute an incredibly easy (often automatic) Spellcraft check for their Will save.
