Other Mirage augments

Hall of Malevolence modifies Hall of Mirrors, Prism Guard modifies Prism, and Total Eclipse modifies Eclipse; their listed effects concern those abilities rather than Sleight of Hand.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • Uses a standard mod slot.
  • The listed effect modifies Sleight of Hand by converting pickups into mines.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Confusing this Sleight of Hand augment with augments for Mirage’s other abilities.
  • Treating the listed mine damage or Status Chance as values for Mirage’s other abilities.
