Re: Mirage is weak

@Forgotten_Frank1 What do you suggest they do to buff him a bit more??

Personally I would just like his Ult. to last longer or allow you to run faster while invisible to make that great escape or sneak up on players fast.

  • The fundamental issue with mirage on console is the built in aim assist still detects him while cloaked....and its infuriating when you use it to escape only to get nailed by a shot perfectly.

    The decoys...situationally useful as they're meant to be...nothing wrong there, and not much else that can really be done with them.

    @MandatoryIDtag I've seen a pretty good buff for his tactical on forums where his tactical spawns two clones on random sides that mirror his movements. He can then send them out individually to bamaboozle like before. I agree the aim assist really screws over his ult. I wonder if the devs could disable it just for when he's invisible (though this might make his ult too strong on console tbh).
  • I think they have to completly rework his ultimate. Maybe giving him something to really tricl his enemies, actually his decoyes stay still making your enemy know that you’re invisible, so they will try to hear your footsteps better they can. Why don’t we make him goes cloak but giving him the chance of cast 5 decoys pressing L1 staying cloak, this will make him harder to play but certainly stronger. About the passive, i’ve proposed a lot of ideas, mu favorite is this : when a mirage’s decoy git hit by an enemy mirage goes cloak for a second, also he get a small cooldown reduction on his L1; this will help him chaining decoys and doing tricky things. Try to image, you’ll understand.

    That’s true, when he activate the ult, aim assist still focus him, helping enemies get you. Also all the decoys you release, sometimes cover your sight... that’s why I’m saying that his ultimate have to be reworked. Maybe just removing his invisibility but making him release some decoys that shoot fake shots in the direction you where aiming at, qwill be a stupid useful way to help him become the “trickmaster”, but making him weaker, i think...
