WoW: WotLK: Mage: Mirror Image

Skill Mastery: Mirror Image

The above link, from WoW Insider, is taste combination of "eep" and "zoink" imo. I can't...I won't even let myself think of what sort of havoc that could possibly make in a BG. However, I did let m'self snicker at the notion of what a multi-boxer might view this skill as.

A 5-boxer + Mirror Image (even with the 3 min cool/30 sec usefulness) = 20 mages
Hell, a dual-boxer + Mirror Image = 8 mages

Thoughts?

WowHead wants to be your friend too. Have a look here. It's a level 80 spell.



Unfortunately it was nerfed before it hit the live servers =(

Not being a mage what did it end up as?



The effect didn't change a whole lot, but the damage they do is much lower. In the full 30 second duration, they can't kill a single lvl 80 mob now, let alone four lvl 70 ones plus a lvl 80 elite. On the plus side, the green 'Mirror Image' text was removed, so it can actually work as a distraction in PvP. The main use in PvE is as a Fade, as you don't get aggro while the images are up.
