Mar 21, 2009 6:47:12 I've been wondering, how would you implement dream magic in 4th edition? I know some of it can be covered with divination rituals and some with flavor, but are there ideas for how it could be used in combat?

Although... I recall that my initial impression of the Illusionist was that I wouldn't be allowing any within spitting distance of my campaign; I haven't gone back with the benefit of experience to see if they still seem so horribly untested.
