In the Mesmer Skill video put out by ArenaNet over a year ago the Mirrors are light colored and ghostly looking. Why was this changed to mimic the player themselves?
Just found this interesting.
the fight at 1:02 suggests to me that the clones were ghostly looking only to you, the enemy sees the full copy of you
probably like it is now to help you quickly distinguish between clones and phantasms?
Supposedly in the beta clones used to deal damage and there was less of a distinction between clones and phants, so that could explain it a bit.
