HOB SPARK: An illusion that fools the target into taking mental damage.
Creatures are easily fooled, but players with high intelligence and
mental saves are not.
COLOUR SPRAY: Now greatly dependent on afflictive savebreak.
PRISMATIC SPRAY: Targets all nearby non-groupmates, similar to fireball.
DUPLICATE: Maximum number depends on caster level, similar to zombies.
MAGIC MISSILE: No longer available to illusionists. Invokers gain this
instead of burning hands.
For more details, refer to 'help '.

Will someone please explain the logic behind switching out burning hands for magic missile? I'm really having some trouble with that one. |

You know instead of an illusionist throwing illusionary missles, he now uses the the school of evocation to make burning hands. I am sure it made sense to atleast one crazy person.

Illusionists didnt gain burning hands.. they gained hob spark. Nobody has burning hands anymore. |

Hob spark: Cool. Wonder how well it does against the giants - I'd hope well, illusionists being the master of mental and all. Makes sense to have something like this assuming its reasonably strong for that use.
Colour spray: Whatever. I took to using magic missile over it anyway. I'd only use it now if I happened to have huge aff savebreak (why is the requirement very high for this one instead of just low/moderate?), and I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to get it just for this. I guess I will have to play around with shocking grasp or something.
Prismatic spray: Same shitty two round lag, but the use (area) is different now, so..
Duplicate: 2 allowed now at level 41 instead of the old 3. At that level 2 is probably sufficient, though I'd hope its 3 by the time you hit the range of the 50's out there at the least.
Magic missile: Aw. Too fun.. But the spell just screams invoker. No brainer. Sadly though invokers won't get much leeway to use it with no dupes and such helping them. |

ungimp colour spray, as it is now their only viable direct damage magic spell. Hob doesnt work vs players, mm and shock are gone. they cant fight back anymore. |
