It's crazy already, I know, but, shouldn't the mirror images "mirror" the caster.

Six images appear, total of seven figures.

This is the tricky part. I've got two ideas here.

Either A) All seven fire, one hits at full strength. The other hits at 1/10, even lower, or just none at all, but still...scares the crap out of your opponent. If it hit, it hit, and they all smile, but only calculate the damage for one of them or however you decide.

B) The six fire their missiles to right in front of the caster, who then casts his beam, creating a mega missile!...which does perhaps 1.5 or 1.25 times the normal damage.

No, and no. This will just create unneccesary spam and how does a mirror cast anything? It is just a phantom.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

/cry

world of warcraft scattered my brain. mirror images mirror the caster. makes sense to me. you have a mirror in front of you and you cast magic missile, does your image in the mirror not at least look like it's casting it?

also, these ideas were just glorious looking in my head. six mages surrounding a seventh shooting a large magic missile into the air as fireworks at a festival or wedding.

Dude, emote / pemote.

Ailee shoots a dozen magic missiles into the air.

Ailee's magic missiles collide in the air and explode into multi-colored sparkles and rain to the ground!


Even add custom color coding and whatnot, it's a pretty common place thing to do as far as things like that go.

EDIT: remembering the topic, could be like...

Ailee and her images circle up and launch a dozen missiles into the air.
