[[ImageFile:WizSpectral-spectralblade-blade2zoom.jpg|thumb|left450px|250px|[[Mirror Image]]s casting Spectral BladeZombies get harvested in a zoomed in view from a graveyard.]]
This skill was the default left click attack at the [[BlizzCon 2008]] build, and also used heavily in the [[BlizzCon 2009]] demo and it worked quite nicely. It was a [[melee]]+spell, hitting anything up close with all 3 slashes, but extending the slashes far enough that targets out of melee range would be hit by one or perhaps two of the attacks. Each slash could also strike multiple targets, making this one potentially quite damaging against multiple, close-range enemies.
This spell was tweaked since the [[Spectral Blade (BlizzCon 2008)|BlizzCon 2008 version]], when it did 1-6 damage per hit, but hit 1-3 times. That allowed a huge spread of damage, from 1-18, and the team must have found it worked better to keep this low level skill a bit more predictable in damage range.
