Skill Design[edit | edit source]

Boosts the number and damage of magic missiles. It's not known how this spell interacts with the basic magic missile spell. That one seems to set the base damage, which this one enhances.

Skill Rank Table[edit | edit source]

Rank 1: One additional missile, 8% more damage.

Only Rank 1 is currently known.

Synergies[edit | edit source]

Magic Missile

This skill only effects Magic Missile.

Skill Rune Effects[edit | edit source]

None known.

Development[edit | edit source]

Improved Magic Missile was first shown at BlizzCon 2008 when the Wizard was unveiled. It was removed sometime prior to BlizzCon 2009, and has been replaced by Magic Missile itself increasing efficiency with added skill ranks.
