Read again Pril...GROUP phantom heal.

I'd be for it, just to watch an entire party die after a fight is over. *cackle*

Umm, no.

If you want to see illus get spell help, fix the existing illus spells that are broken.

Would be nice if the illusionary heal would be overwritten if a real heal comes your way.

Maybe if they made it a component based spell.

still trying to figure out why they nerfed tranquility all those years ago.. a spell that actually allowed groups to use some strategy for once rather than just load up on invokers and nuke the shit out of everything.

Probably cuz it was too darn effective. They had to either adjust glitterdust/sunray/all blinds in general or tranquility; they chose the latter. A lot of caster mob AI hinges on being engaged in combat as well - disengage them and they have to target you all over again - spam tranquility and you've got most of the mobs in near paralysis till the illusionist runs out. Fixing mob AI to get around it probably would have been better, but seems to be a hornet's nest to try to improve.

The thing about tranquility is that if used incorrectly it hurt more than it helped. There was a fair amount of strategy involved.. which can't really be said for the standard procedure of keep tank alive til the room is fully nuked. I wouldn't have minded seeing it failable.. possibly have each mob in the room have its own individual save chance. But I really don't see why it was nerfed altogether.

The same can be said of any spell, Corth, even blind. Like if you're luring a mob, the last thing you want to do is blind it.
