Mirror Arrow is a bow attack skill that fires an arrow, dealing damage and summoning a clone when it reaches its destination. The clone is a minion that uses the player's bow and quiver.

Skill functions and interactions

The skill happens in three stages:

  1. The player fires an arrow into the air. This is a regular attack animation and can get slowed or interrupted by monsters.
  2. A delay of about 0.3 seconds, during which the player is free to act normally. They can move or use another skill. They can continue to take damage at their current position[1].
  3. A clone is spawned at the landing arrow's location.

The length of the first stage is affected by anything that affects regular attacks - weapon base speed, attack speed modifiers etc. The length of the second stage is affected both by bonuses to projectile speed and by global bonuses to attack speed, but not by the weapon's base speed[2][3]. The delay is unaffected by distance travelled.

The delay of the first two stages can be reduced by linking Faster Attacks SupportFaster Attacks SupportAttack, Support
