Mirage has been in the game since day one as an unlockable character, though at first, the bamboozling legend wasn\u2019t quite as useful as he is now. That said, since his Season 5 rework, Mirage has become arguably a top-tier Legend in the game, and his Ultimate ability \u2013 Life of the Party \u2013 truly lives up to his Holographic Trickster moniker. Life of the Party lets Mirage throw out six decoys completely identical to himself that also mimic his movements after granting the user one second of invisibility. Obviously, it\u2019s great for throwing off enemies \u2013 but if it gets used against you, how can you distinguish the real Mirage from his decoys? There are several tricks you can use to identify the real Mirage, including this very handy Bloodhound trick that points him out among his decoys, but here are some things you can do if your team doesn\u2019t have a Bloodhound. The list, compiled by lionsroar89, says to look out for these hints: The Mirage is actively trying to escape \u2013 This is a fairly obvious one, here. If one of the Mirage clones is trying to escape, they\u2019re probably the real one, as the others traverse around the area with no real end goal. &#8211; They are looking right at you \u2013 If Mirage uses his Ultimate, and then one of them is looking right at you, you\u2019ve probably found the real one. &#8211; Using gas or explosives \u2013 If a Mirage is actively trying to avoid things that will cause them damage, it\u2019s likely the real one. &#8211; Just shoot them \u2013 Perhaps the most obvious of them all, just shooting at the clones until you deal damage to one is a safe bet\u2026 but means you\u2019ll be lower on ammunition and much more likely to invite enemy gunfire. &#8211; Listen to them \u2013 If you\u2019re standing near the real Mirage, you\u2019ll hear them walking around. If you\u2019re next to one, and they\u2019re silent, it\u2019s a decoy. &#8211; So, there you have it. They\u2019re fairly simple tips but will grant you a little extra room to plan your actions next time you face off against a Mirage using his ultimate. If you\u2019re still not fully clued up on Mirage\u2019s rework, we\u2019ve written up a helpful guide that will let you know exactly what changed with him, and explain why he\u2019s now a top-tier Legend in the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to spot real Mirage from the decoys in Apex Legends Respawn EntertainmentMirage has become an incredibly popular and helpful Legend in the Apex Games since his introduction to the title, with the ability to dupe opponents with his holographic tricks.
