Around Azeroth: Out of many, one
Isari of Immortalis on The Sha'tar (EU-A) writes, "We cloned our guild leader Zelcandor about 25 times with Potions of Illusion and confused the hell out of the people in the Stormwind Trade District for a minute and a half. You may wish to include the following tip for others who want to try this: you can use a potion of illusion to copy a player character, but someone else cannot copy that same player character. So what people need to do is have the first person copy someone's player character, and then have the second person copy that person, and so on and so forth. It works on practically anything."

First thought upon seeing this image:

On second thoughts, lets not go to the Auction House.
Tis a silly place.

Surely there is an issue with this logic due to replicative failure.
It would seem likely that at some nth copy, the character "cloned" comes out as a female gnome.

The revelation arrived at by exhaustive examination of all available data on the subject would be that humans would not regress to gnomes, but that humans are actually the result of that nth copy, possibly from crude experimentation upon orc peons. After all, one has only to remember that gnomes were created by the Titans and their present form is due to a curse of the flesh. Human males, on the other hand, have a chin that could open a can of beans and hands that largely resemble oven mitts with no real understanding of how they came to Azeroth to begin with. Freaks, I say.

Actually, if you illusion enough degrees away from the original source, you turn into Kevin Bacon.

If a player for example uses the stuff from Archaeology to turn into a naga you can copy that player with the potion and someone else can use the potion near you till you have a whole army of Naga :D Druids can use a potion and then use flightform for flying around while transformed.
There's a couple more screenshots on our site: http://immortalisguild.com/

Speaking of Potions of Illusion, it also works on people who /dance with the Brazier of Dancing Flames (Midsummer Fire Festival reward). Find a small fiery draenei dancer, pop the potion, and then you can run around and cast as a small fiery draenei.

The potions don't work right on NPCs like ysera :(
Isari Jun 18th 2011 8:56PM
As far as I can tell from testing, it only works on player characters.

Sometimes the potion doesn't make you a copy of your target and turns you into other things. I've used it to copy guild members during instance runs and sometimes have been changed to opposing faction forms or various NPC forms.

Using the potion of illusion twice, with a bear tank as the source, allowed our paladin to go invisible.
