Description

Attacks with magically made copies of your weapon in a melee range in front of you.

Damage dealt is physical and the skill improves attack speed, but the skill itself always has the fastest animation?

Crushing blow does apply, unlike Echoing Strike.

Usage removes wielded weapon's durability, unlike Echoing Strike, so you should be using high damage, slow, non-ethereal weapons, preferably with high crushing blow and use it in Uber Tristram and Colossal Summit.

Can be used to make Runewords:

As of the time writing this, Mirrored Blades does not depreciate your weapon's durability. As such it is ideal to use it with Ethereal Weapons.

Unlike Echoing Strike that cannot apply Crushing Blow and Open Wounds, this ability is treated like a single target Zeal.

According to Ginger Gaming Mentor, it appears that Mirrored Blades does indeed require Attack Rating despite not showing AR in the character screen.

A fun thing about this skill is that, despite its name, it can be used with missile weapons. It works like Multiple Shot, even including the click distance-firing arc mechanic.

However, using this skill with a throwing weapon (javelins, throwing axes, throwing knives, etc.) only executes the melee version of the attack.

Finally, Mirrored Blades is rendered unavailable if you equip a throwing potion. The devs truly hate potion builds.

The Warlock can use Mirrored Blades with Bows/Crossbows to "multishot" just like an Amazon.

Except Mirrored Blades allows every single arrow to hit the same target unlike Multiple Shot. This shotgun effect multiplies the damage immensely against single targets.

Mirrored Blades fires Arrows/ Bolts as if it were a regular attack but with enhanced damage and attack speed from the skill. This means all the special properties from the weapon gets transfered to each individual arrow.

If a bow has Fires Magic Arrows, every single arrow will be magic. The same for Fires Explosive Bolts.

As of patch 3.2:
Blizzard wrote:
  • Fixed an issue where Mirrored Blades did not display attack rating on the character screen.
  • Fixed an issue where the tooltip did not display the granted attack rating bonus.
  • Fixed an issue where the skill would not repeatedly cast when the button was held down on controller.
  • Fixed issue where the first missile when using Mirrored Blades with a bow or crossbow was getting the modified damage meant only for mirrors.

With Mist runeword, this skill is incredibly dangerous and it allows you to clear high density of monsters because of 5 projectiles from Mirrored Blades.

Coooley makes this video to show how absurdly powerful of a combination of Mist runeword and high level Mirrored Blades to melt even p8 monsters.

Without 75% Block, it can melt even PvP players too.
