No, they don’t need to be buffed. What I would suggest is that the f1-f4 illusion shatter skills not go through CD if you don’t have any illusions up. Maybe I just need to train my reaction timing better, but I find myself often using a shatter skill before the illusion/s is up, and then I have to use one I didn’t intend. This is mostly a problem for faster/larger fights, where I’m trying to get the illusion to shatter on the enemy before it dies.
