Mirage Arcane Is Ridiculous In D&D

Imagine making an illusion so large it basically covers an entire town. Then, imagine being able to make everything within that illusion tangible and being able to alter it at will. Welcome to the wonderful world of Mirage Arcane in D&D 5e!

Jermy Crawford said this in a tweet
“The mirage arcane spell gives you tremendous latitude in how you make the affected terrain look and feel. The altered terrain can even hurt someone. You could drown in the spell’s illusory lake, for example, or fall off an illusory cliff. #DnD”
And that opens up some real nightmare fuel stuff especially for school of illusion wizards.

And the craziest part is, you can instantly change anything you want within mirage arcane in an instant thanks to illusion wizard
"You guys were fighting my wizard? Not underneath this mountain I just dropped on you."

If an illusion wizard can move the illusion (which seems to be the concensus), then your flying city can now actually fly around the world... I love this spell ^^

Yup, this spell basically makes you god within a one square mile area if you're a high level divination wizard

Here's the best way to use Mirage Arcane as an Illusionist Wizard. If you know you'll be in an area for awhile, cast the spell and make the illusion dormant (It's not changing anything, it's just there), or a small speck somewhere that you can move with you as you walk if you are worried about people detecting the magic.
When you need the spell, simply use your Illusionist ability to "Activate" the spell. Guards chasing you? Use your action to make a real stone wall down this alley way. Want to get somewhere restricted? Use your action to make a tunnel through the ground to where you want to go.
The craziest part of this spell? You can single handedly defeat an army. Summon a lake of lava under them and wipe them out. Mirage Arcane is what Weird should have been. It's absolutely one of the most broken spells in the game that completely slips under everyone's radar.

I thought of condensing the spell into something smaller, but I never thought about having illusion be condensed into something you'd literally carry with you. This is brilliant. You basically get to carry a reality warping bomb with you wherever you go for 10 days

Huh, of all the people I expected to be a wizard in DnD, Monkey D Luffy was on the bottom part of that list, but here we are, can't wait to run a muscle wizard with rubber properties!

YOOOOOOOOO, I was hoping someone would see the inspo for the design. Thank you very much for that

Sometimes I sign up for a free trial of something and then forget to un-sub. I can't imagine having to re-cast a spell or a hundred thousand people plummet to their death. "Oh damn, is it Friday?"
