In order to avoid close combat as much as possible, the Wizard can create duplicates of herself, who will also aggressively attack opponents.

==~~Skillrune~~ Skill Rune Effects==

The following is a very quick summary. See the [[Mirror Image rune effects]] page for a more thorough description of rune effects, or any of the individual rune pages for numbers, screenshots, blue quotes, and much more.

==Synergies==

~~Mirror Image benefits from the~~ The following [[Wizard passives]]provide a benefit to Mirror Image, runed or not: ~~None added yet.~~{{Passive skills header}}{{Wizard Passive Illusionist}}{{Wizard Passive Critical Mass}}

<blockquote>''I didn’t use this one very often during play, since the Wizard was powerful enough to slaughter most attackers without needing the assistance, but the few times I did Mirror Image, against big mobs, it worked marvelously. The mirror doesn’t last for very long, usually dying to the monster onslaught, but it didn’t have to. The Wizard has a number of nice AoE spells, even at low levels, and all the MI had to do was provide a focal point for the [[Fallen]] or [[Dark Cultist]]s to swarm around to turn them into fish in a barrel for [[Arcane Orb]]s.</blockquote>

Mirror Image was still listed at [[BlizzCon 2010]], but it wasn't one of the Wizard's starting skills. Skill tiers were removed for the [[July 2011 Press Event]], allowing skills to unlock steadily from levels 1 to 30. Consequently, all skill levels were adjusted and Mirror Image became a level 15 skill.

===Beta===

~~Skill tiers were removed shortly before the [[beta]] started in September 2011, and~~ {{Beta skill notes}} Mirror Image ~~became a level 15 skill.
