I've heard that project image is better. Can someone tell me why? From what I know the two spells are the same except for that you can move around and cast spells with simurcularcum, which you cannot with project image. So how is it really?
p.s: did i spell simurcularcum right? (the white 8level mage spell that makes copy of you) |

Simulcrum produces a clone at approx 60% of the casters level, which reduces the number of spells he is able to cast, as well as his fighting ability.
You can cast restoration on a simulcrum to restore the lost levels. However, project image allows you to a) circumvent the summons limit and b) cast all spells at no 'cost' to you while the original character is uninjured... So if you hide your character away somewhere sensible and/or make him invisible...

Neither of them is superior to the other - they're just different.
A general overview.... Project Image and Simulacrum in General:

Just to clarify, what Alson meant was that Simulacrum is not affected by Dispel Magic or Remove Magic. True Sight will still get rid of it.

Hmmmm? Was I witnessing Mislead clones then? Or maybe they were Project Image clones... If the Spell References says they are not affected by True Sight, then I guess I will have to trust them on this one.
By the way, the direct link is this one, Click Here. ADD] Although if I want to be a pendant, Death Spell will definitely kill any clones. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [ 05-07-2003, 03:11 AM: Message edited by: Dundee Slaytern ] |
