I allready know that they are unable to cast spell-triggers and contingencies and such ... But i thought i saw Dundee write once or twice that he let his PI cast another PI. Can a PI cast PI ?
Im asking 'cause it never works when I try it .. the PI cast PI, but nothing happens ...

Thx for any replies [img]graemlins/happydance.gif[/img]

I can confirm a PI illusion can cast Simulacrum or Mislead, but my memory is fuzzy on whether a PII can cast another PII. One thing though, when a PII casts any of these, the resulted clone has no equipment.

Ah well .. thanks to Alson my sorcerer managed to get out 15 Fallen planetars and something like 12 abi-dalzim horrid wilthings ... per round offcourse ...

Hmmmm... taking my fully maxed and equipped Sorcerer, he will be able to, in the frame of one Time Stop, cast the following( inclusive of ToB spells and abilities),

Assuming I am fighting a Dragon.

6 Magic Missiles, 8 Melf's Acid Arrows, 7 Flame Arrows, 1 Greater Malison, 6 Spider Spawns, 1 Spell Immunity:Divination, 6 Feebleminds, 1 True Sight, 1 Protection from Magical Weapons, 4 Ruby Rays of Reversal, 3 Finger of Deaths, 2 Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wiltings, 4 Summon Planetars, 1 Spell Sequencer( 3 Flame Arrows), 1 Spell Trigger( 3 Lower Resistances), and 1 Chain Contingency( 3 Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wiltings)

All for the price of one Project Image illusion... ...

Using Alson's technique, remove the CC-Bomb and multiply the rest four times over a period of 4 consecutive Time Stops.

I can actually cast more, but no point casting redundant spells.

It can't.

Nope it cant :(
Sheesj, it just took me 25 -wish- spells to finally get the rest-option ... the last 5 wishes were with 25 wisdom ( max stats-wish) ...
Talk about bad luck :(

I use Project Image to spam 6 Wishes. Effective for mass contract signings.

Alson 09-29-2002 02:02 PM

Indeed...
Cast PI, swig a Potion of Insight (if needed) then have it cast all it's six wishes and another two from the two Wishes scrolls in-game.
If you have a fighter-heavy party, be sure to pick to "Mass Improved Haste".
If you're doing this while combat, a little x2 TS+IA can't hurt you.

*** Cheese Alert ***

The Hardiness stacking bug was fixed by Baldurdash, right?

Wrong!! :D
Only partially!

Choose the Mass Hardiness option three times (you'll have a good chance with your eight Djinnis and 18 WIS :D ) to make your whole party immune to physical damage!

Full Plate is for whimps! Behold!! My Armor-of-Cheese! :D

This is assuming of course, that you get the options in the first place. There are so many choices that you cannot really depend on it 100%.

Alson 09-29-2002 02:20 PM

Then, by all means, do not be afraid to cast another Project Image! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I'm sure that with 18 WIS and 16 Djinnis, we'll get x3 Hardiness.

I always did. :D
