She could use her Hallucinations to prevent Weiss from wrecking her with slashes (because Weiss rarely goes all out with Dust, even though that's the only thing she's any good for).

But, take into account 1 thing: Summoning. Using her Semblance on multiple beings at the same time was very difficult for Emerald in a non-combat situation. Now, doing that in a combat situation with both targets focusing on her? More difficult. And that's only assuming her hallucinations would even work on the Summons to begin with.

If they don't, Weiss can wreck her with and without hallucinations because regardless of what she sees or doesn't see, she can just Summon Knight after Knight (or something smaller), while Emerald's energy and Aura would be gradually decreased between fighting the Summons and keeping Weiss "under control".

So in the end, if Weiss can't win via beatdown she can win via atrition-and-then-beatdown.
