Tips & Tricks

  • As always with Injury Mirror, it is a good idea to avoid potential self-harm and delay direct or long-lasting attacks (examples of the latter being poison and clouds) until after the status ends. Regularly checking in tiles for the status icon or in console with x over the monster is important to avoid significant damage.
