Mirage changes in Apex Legends

Mirage's decoys now switch weapons when Mirage does and put away melee weapons properly.

Tac & Ult: decoys now swap weapons when you do and also properly holster melee weapons

Mirage's ultimate now creates one more decoy.

Number of decoys created during Ult 5 → 6

TipOne extra decoy gives enemies one more fake to track - lean into creating chaos during close-range ult.

Mirage's passive now also cloaks while healing and enters cloak faster, with a short cooldown once the cloak ends; the new Boozle-Eye and Renaissance Man upgrades replace Battpack and More Me.

Now You See Me…: Now also cloaks when using a healing consumable item: Cloak is removed by damage, ability use, or dropping the heal action

• Now You See Me…
• Now also cloaks when using a healing consumable item
• Cloak is removed by damage, ability use, or dropping the heal action
• Cloak has a 5 sec cooldown that begins after exiting the cloaked state
• Entering cloak now only takes 1s (was 1.5s)
• After a revive, Mirage now has increased speed while cloaked
• Upgrades: Level 2
• Battpack: removed
• More Me: removed
• NEW Boozle-Eye: Bamboozles now also scan the target who shot the clone
• NEW Renaissance Man: gain access to all other Classes’ world interactions: Assault Bins, Care Package scans, Survey Beacons, and Ring Consoles: Mirage and his team will ONLY gain EVO for these interactions if the squad also has a member of that class

Mirage's ultimate no longer shows health bars that give away the real Mirage, and Battpack replaces Miracle Worker at Level 2, adding a battery per stack and showing battery counts in Death Boxes.

• Life of the Party: health bars no longer show during Ultimate to give away the real Mirage
• Upgrades: Level 2
• Miracle Worker: removed
• NEW Battpack: in addition to the extra battery per stack, this upgrade now also shows battery counts in Death Boxes
• Shockwave: Level 2
• Miracle Worker: Revive allies with 75HP regen.
• Battpack
• +1 Battery per stack
• See Battery Count in Death Boxes.

TipTake Battpack at level two now that Miracle Worker is gone: it stacks an extra battery and reads battery counts in death boxes, so make Mirage the one who loots boxes for the squad's shields.

Quads replaces Duos, with 15 teams of four, better loot including kitted Blue and Purple weapons, more Replicators, and Legend abilities updated to support a fourth squad member.

• Replacing Duos Playlist for S21.1

• Loba’s Ultimate has UI to support a fourth player

Mirage is now a Support legend instead of a Skirmisher.

Class changed from Skirmisher to Support

Mirage and the revived ally now stay cloaked briefly after a revive until a weapon is drawn, and decoys only bamboozle on bullets or melee, warning the enemy but marking them longer.

Passive - Now you see me…: Mirage and his ally now remain cloaked after a revive for 3s

• Passive - Now you see me…
• Mirage and his ally now remain cloaked after a revive for 3s
• Weapons remain stowed while cloaked

• Enemies who are bamboozled now receive notification on their screen
• Bamboozle icon marker now tracks the Bamboozled player’s movement
• Bamboozle icon marker duration 2.5s → 3.5s

TipUse decoys more aggressively knowing they won't trigger from grenades or abilities; enemies still know they're fooled but the tracker lasts longer.

Mirage's decoys now show up in Valk's skydive scan and are picked up by Seer's Heart Seeker.

• Mirage Decoys will now be scanned by Valk when skydiving.
• Mirage Decoys will now be picked up by Seer’s Heart Seeker.

In Arenas, Horizon's Gravity Lift and Mirage's Psyche Out each start with one fewer charge, and Bloodhound gets one fewer free scan during Beast of the Hunt.

• Horizon's Gravity Lift starting charges 2 → 1
• Mirage's Psyche Out starting charges 3 → 2
• Bloodhound's free scans while in Beast of the Hunt 3 → 2

TipYour early Arenas rounds shift without burst ability spam - adjust economy and rotations around single charges.

Mirage's decoys from both Psyche Out and Life of the Party now have a set amount of health.

Psyche Out/Life of the Party: Decoys now have 45 health

Mirage's decoys now last 60 seconds and can be taken over to copy Mirage's moves, the ultimate sends out a team of mimicking decoys, and Mirage cloaks while reviving or using a respawn beacon, as does the teammate.

Tactical: Psyche Out: Decoys now last for 60 seconds.

• Tactical: Psyche Out
• Pressing the character utility action button allows Mirage to gain control of his decoy.
• When controlling the decoy, it will mimic Mirage’s every move.
• Decoys now last for 60 seconds.
• Releasing another decoy will remove the previous decoy.

• Cooldown 60 seconds.
• Now You See Me... (Passive): Now You See Me…: In addition to cloaking when downed, Mirage also cloaks while using a respawn beacon and reviving a teammate (the teammate is also cloaked).
• Mirage’s “You got Bamboozled” line will now trigger when you bamboozle an enemy, instead of when you release a decoy.

Mirage can now end the Vanishing Act cloak early, though there is a short delay when dropping out of it.

Vanishing Act: Mirage can now cancel out of his ultimate cloak early.
