How it works

Mirror Image is built from 3 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Mirror Image.
  2. Effect 2 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Mirror Image.
  3. Effect 3 is Trigger Spell (effect type 64). It triggers Mirror Image.

What it does

Mirror Image is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). It also casts Mirror Image (record #160389).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the current retail game build. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
