For the love of God, please buff illusionmold! It's great for RP and has amazing potential, but as one of the higher spells, its utility is drastically reduced by the fact that you can only make, at most, maybe two lines of illusions!

And that's coming off a character with the appropriate fields maxed out. It's very disheartening to have this great illusion planned out, only to have it fail - or to be doing your illusions, and not be able to make them persistent, or imote their disappearing.

I'll bump this too. The way I see Illusionmold, it's little more than Fechoing. And as this is a top tier spell, I'd have thought it could have done something more.

It'd be nice to make it a bit lower level of a skill too IMHO.

Can't believe I never commented on this. Air in general suffers from a real dearth of great spells - Illusionmold being its capstone ability definitely makes it worse. Cool idea for a spell, incredibly powerful, but should be buffed a lot.

Maybe something like instead of line limits, you
1) can emote as many echoes sans-names as you want during a short duration but
2) there's a chance people will recognize them as illusions (Wisdom roll?)

Yah, it doesn't help that air's best spells were Vortex and Whisperreap. It used to be the most OP element.

I made a suggestion of making illusionmold a timed buff or(in the least) putting how much negative essence you have left. This way you can plan what your illusion will do, instead of getting half way through and find out you have no more essence.

I think a timed buff is reasonable. I agree it's stupid complex atm.

I'm going to have to also agree that it needs improvement. It's just too unpredictable in my opinion.
