Talk:Pain Illusion/@comment-26517627-20150710080518

This is forgetting basic rules of illusion. A victim can be damaged or even die if they believe in the illusion enough. Pain illusion would therefore be limited by the fact that those with sufficient willpower could break it.

Also it would be vulnerable to anyone with the ability to manipulate illusions. Or the ability to see or know the truth.

Its still an effective form of mental torture provided the victim doesn't know its an illusion.
