Reflecting Mist is a currency item that can be used to Reflect rare rings or amulets.
Reflecting an item causes it to become mirrored, increases each of its modifiers' modifier magnitudes by a random percentage, and modifiers are randomly distributed as positive or negative between the two copies. The modifiers are heavily skewed against a fully negative/positive result regardless of the maximum number of modifiers on the item.
Influenced, Synthesised, Veiled, Corrupted, Mirrored, or Unique rings and amulets cannot be Reflected this way.
Fractured items can be Reflected.

The modifier multiplier magnitude is randomly chosen between 1.5x to 2.1x for eachdisputed, see Discussion modifier, in 0.05 increments.

Quality and enchantment modifiers are preserved upon Reflecting.

Inverted modifiers
Certain modifiers cannot have negative versions, and instead have a thematically similar modifier that can only be obtained through Reflecting a modifier[2]. For a full list, see List of inverted modifiers.
Inverted added damage modifiers provide added damage to hits against you instead.
Inverted added damage to attack modifiers provide added damage to attacks against you instead.
Inverted leech modifiers causes enemies to gain leech against you instead.
Shock nearby Enemies for # Seconds when you Focus turns into Shock yourself for # Seconds when you Focus
Miscellaneous interactions
The global modifier -#% to maximum Energy Shield on reflected rings and amulets can only subtract from other sources of global maximum Energy Shield; it will not remove base Energy Shield from equipped armour items or energy shield from conversion from life (GhostwritheGhostwrithe Silken VestEnergy Shield: (130-238) Movement Speed: -3%Requires Level 11, 37 Int+(100-200) to maximum Energy Shield +(50-100) to maximum Life +50% to Chaos Resistance 50% of Maximum Life Converted to Energy ShieldFaith springs abundant at the edge of death., Presence of ChayulaPresence of Chayula Onyx AmuletRequires Level 60+(10-16) to all Attributes30% increased Rarity of Items found +60% to Chaos Resistance Cannot be Stunned 20% of Maximum Life Converted to Energy ShieldThe dreamer stirs, the world trembles.).[3]
Life loss modifiers (inverted Life Regen) cannot be converted into ES loss via Zealot's Oath or Pious Path as loss is fundamentally different from regen.
Recoup does not have an inverted version and instead shows a negative recoup value; it is affected by modifiers to recoup (e.g. Life Recoup Effects instead occur over 3 seconds from Recovery Mastery but functions as % loss over 4 seconds by default. It is not affected by modifiers to recovery rate.
Strategy
Most modifiers simply convert a positive value into a negative one.
Minimum Charge modifiers such as +1 to Minimum Frenzy Charges Reflect into -1 to Minimum Frenzy Charges, which functionally have no downsides as long as you do not have other sources of Minimum Charges.
Some negative mod can be beneficial.
