Tayga.3192 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 An attempt to make all GMs worth taking.Infinite Horizon: When you gain Mirage Cloak, your clones also gain it and use their respective ambush skills.Elusive Mind: When you gain Mirage Cloak, your clones also gain it. You remove a condition for every clone you have (player is also counted).Dune Cloak: When you gain Mirage Cloak, your clones also gain it. No idea what its effect would be.With only one dodge, GMs are very underwhelming so I just wanted to make a discussion for this concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm.3120 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 More like ... instead of IH baseline all GM gives them avade and only 1 allows ambush...? May be... idk, only if it would be just a decoy and not a DPS boost because its hard to balance for them, lol.And on paper (even with 1 evade idk) this might be too strong.If picking up mirror affect EM this would make mirage immune to condis (on paper with desert distortion or something), So only on evade probs.DC, on paper again, would steal too many boons. I would make it only for mesmer and steal 2 boons, 1 feels underwhelming and meh beacuse boonspam is still common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought IH should be baseline because its basically the entire "theme" of the mirage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadox.7834 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 This is unnecessary, IH and EM are already very good. Dune cloak could use some change though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curunen.8729 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 DC needs a visual effect change also - the current one gives me eye/headache, the pop is really annoying.I think whatever the gameplay, the visual effect of clones evading and ambushing with the player should have been the foundation of mirage and should have been minor for all mirage builds.Damage can be shifted around etc, but personally I feel the spec loses its flavour without these visuals.
