Acutally it is not a PVP only tactic. What you do is send one person out to
attract the attention of a really nasty creature and attack it. They then
run back to the ambush site and then the Enchaters all attack. The only use
for the Minor illusion spell in this case is to play in character.. it very
well know that when you attack a monster and run it will hunt you down. So
you can use this tactic to attack creatures that con red and be pretty sure
that you will live.

Yes you are right about invisibility working also but I like the minor
illusion since the decoy character can spot the ambush location. If they
get twisted around. It would be bad if he ran to the wrong area :-(

As I said in the original post yes it would be a group of 6 enchanters.
Actually I believe that the Enchanters are more powerful thatn they are
givin credit for and when you have 6 Enchaters each with an animation spell
and all the others nice effects I believe that they would come out ahead.

I have tested this tactic with a few other enchanters and I must admit that
it worked rather well. and it was very fun to listen to people in Toxxulia
Forest speak about the trees that attacked..

The best thing about playing as an enchanter is that you have to combine
your spells in different ways to truely bring out the power of this class/
