Playstyle

Mirage Prime is the primed variant of Mirage — same kit fantasy with Prime stats and polarities. Mirage’s sleight of hand complements her might. Built around Hall Of Mirrors, Sleight Of Hand, Eclipse.

Passive

Sliding lasts duration% longer and acrobatic maneuvers are a percentage faster.

When to Pick

  • You want Mirage’s kit with Prime polarities / stats.
  • You want a mobile dps toolkit and Mirage’s fantasy matches the mission.
  • Your squad is missing what Mirage brings — especially Hall Of Mirrors.

Kit Overview

  • Ability kit matches Mirage — open the base ability pages for deep dives.
  • Hall Of Mirrors (Ability 1): Mirage creates an entourage of doppelgangers to confuse and distract the enemy.
  • Sleight Of Hand (Ability 2): Booby trap nearby objects while conjuring an irresistible jewel that bursts with radial blind when touched in darkness, or a radial explosion in light.
  • Eclipse (Ability 3): (TAP) Temporarily reduce the damage Mirage takes from enemies.

Abilities & Augments

Ability Priority

  1. 1
    Hall Of Mirrors

    Mirage creates an entourage of doppelgangers to confuse and distract the enemy.

  2. 2
    Sleight Of Hand

    Booby trap nearby objects while conjuring an irresistible jewel that bursts with radial blind when touched in darkness, or a radial explosion in light.

  3. 3
    Eclipse

    (TAP) Temporarily reduce the damage Mirage takes from enemies.

  4. 4
    Prism

    Fires an energy prism that shoots lasers in all directions.

Helminth / Subsume

  • Hall Of Mirrors is often the Helminth sacrifice if your build never needs Ability 1 and you’d rather import a strip, buff, or survival tool.
  • Keep Sleight Of Hand and later abilities when they define Mirage’s identity.
  • Never subsume the ability that enables the rest of the kit’s energy or survival loop.

Mod Scaling

Strength

Raises damage and effect potency across Mirage’s Strength-scaling abilities.

Duration

Extends channeled / timed effects — often comfort on Mirage if the kit leans on buffs or zones.

Range

Helps radius / targeting tools. Dump it if Mirage is mostly self-buff or exalted weapons.

Efficiency

Keeps ability uptime comfortable, especially on longer Steel Path missions.

Priority

Match the priority to your main ability — Strength or Duration first for most kits, then Efficiency, then Range.
