[edit] Notes
- If you use Arcane Mimicry on an ally that has more than one elite skill, you get the first elite skill from the left in their skillbar.
- Team builds involving mutual mimicry generally require players to have their Arcane Mimicry be at right of their own elite skill to avoid unwanted copied elite skills.
- If used on an ally without an elite skill or with an elite form, Arcane Mimicry will just recharge.
- If you get a maintained enchantment with Arcane Mimicry, you can continue maintaining it after Arcane Mimicry ends.
- If used to copy a spell, either Signet of Illusions or Symbols of Inspiration can be used to improve the power of a copied spell which is dependent upon an attribute in which the caster has not invested very many points.
- The recharge starts after the copy effect ends. Thus, items that reduce recharge time will not work with Arcane Mimicry if it copies a skill.
If a hero uses this skill to copy a maintained enchantment (and then uses it), the hero will cancel the enchantment when Arcane Mimicry ends.
