[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 3505445, member: 2011"] If you say so. Personally, I do not think you have quoted a single rule that supports your POV. There is no such thing as "appear as someone with an image distorted enough to have a miss chance" from a RAW perspective in the rules. There are game effects (miss chance) and whether that game effect is on a specific object, creature, or effect. Period. If Mirror Image stated "Any visual spell effects on the caster are also duplicated on the images. For example: Blur ...". But, Mirror Image has no such RAW text. There is no "Blurred" Condition in the game which is a visual concealment effect that occurs under some specific conditions. Blur is a spell. If the spell is on the target, it/he is blurred and gains the effect. If the spell is not on the target, it/he does not. It is not on the Mirror Image images and they are illegal targets for the spell, hence, by definition they do not gain the effects of the Blur spell. There is no such contradiction. This is a total logical fallacy. Your sentence here is the semantic equivalent of "If I hit the target, I can distinguish him from his images. Since Mirror Images states that I cannot distinguish him from his images, I cannot hit him." This is semantical game playing with the words. There is no RAW text that states that if the caster is displaced, the images also must be displaced. Without such RAW text, you are not quoting rules. You are making them up such as in your statement quoted here. [/QUOTE]
