  Several illusory duplicates of you pop into being, making it difficult for enemies to know which target to attack. The figments stay near you and disappear when struck.
  Mirror image, Greater creates 1d4 images plus one image per three Caster Levels (maximum eight images total). TThese figments remain in your space and move with you, mimicking your movements, sounds, and actions exactly.
  Whenever you are attacked or are the target of an affected spell (see below), there is a possibility that the attack targets one of your images instead. If the attack is a hit, roll randomly to see whether the selected target is real or a figment. If it is a figment, the figment is destroyed. If the attack misses by 5 or less, one of your figments is destroyed by the near miss. Area attacks and unaffected spells (see below) affect you normally and do not destroy any of your figments, though they do seem to react normally to them (such as looking like they’re burned or dead after being hit by a fireball).
  As an immediate action, this spell can be used in response to an attack or spell to attempt to avoid its effects. In order to do so, it must be cast before the attack or spell is resolved, meaning it must be declared before any attack rolls are made or before a spell is fully cast (You can determine a spell's identity before it is cast with a successful Spellcraft check, but any choices made for it, including who/where it is targetting, are not known until after it finishes casting).
  Each round on your turn, one additional image is created, to a maximum of 8 images. This effect lasts for the duration of the spell.
  If all images are destroyed, the spell ends.
  Spells that are affected by mirror image includes any spell with a touch attack and any ray or projectile spell that does not affect an area. Some examples are provided below
 
  • Scorching Ray would be affected as it requires a ranged touch attack
  • Magic Missile would be affected as it is a projectile spell that does not target an area
  • Charm Person would not be affected as it does not require an attack roll and is not a projectile
  • Cure Light Wounds would be affected as it requires a ranged touch attack
  • Mass Cure Light Wounds would not be affected as it does not require an attack roll and is not a projectile
  • Fireball would not be affected as it affects an area

  An attacker must be able to see the images to be fooled. If you are invisible or an attacker shuts his or her eyes, the spell has no effect. (Being unable to see carries the same penalties as being Blinded.)
  Creatures with extraordinary senses that do not rely on vision, such as Blindsight, Blindsense, and Scent, can distinguish between you and your images when within range of the sense.
