Hi all.
I just got my Mirror Images spell. I love running through dungeons with them, oh so cute.
But they don’t last long, have a two minute cooldown, and don’t seem to do much damage.
Is there any way to make them stay with me longer? And do more damage? And lower the cooldown?
Guess I’m asking how can I make my Mirror Images better?
Short Answer: No.
The spell was changed to be almost exclusively a defensive cooldown.
I don’t think it is possible to increase the duration of Mirror Image. You can lower the cooldown of Mirror Image using the Night Fae covenant ability called Shifting Power. It is possible for Mirror Images to do more damage and be a more exciting ability, but only in Torghast. It’s a lot of fun obtaining the Highly-Polished Hand Mirror Anima power and stacking the Sapphire Prism Anima power in Torghast.
I really wish the behavior of Mirror Images caused by Highly-Polished Hand Mirror was baseline. Mirror Images should use the same school of spells of your specialization and confuse players by moving around like an actual player. It’s a real shame that Blizzard chooses to take interesting abilities like Mirror Images and turn it into something extremely boring for non-gimmick game play.

No… unfortunately not.
They’re actually a defense cooldown rather than meant for DPS. So you really only want to cast them if you’re taking a lot of damage.
Mirror Images are just decoys to draw enemy attention away from you. But they die fast.
In Modern wow, mirror images is just a defensive. It’s use to mitigate incoming damage and to lose aggro. It’s no longer a dps cd.
