If you havent done the 3 quests of ascendance this isnt for you.
If you have, and are a healing monk. I have a few suggestions.

1. load up your skill for smiting. have banish, smite and any other smiting skill you have loaded. Next load distortion the mesmer spell that is cheap to cast, 5 energy and effective 75% dodge chance over 5 seconds.
2. Fill the rest of the slot with junk that cant help your mirror or hurt you.

ok.. it took me 21 times to beat my mirror but this is the technique i used.

1. get ready to step on the 3rd run to enter the mesa, cast distortion and step on it and skip any scene. Target and cast your 3 or more smite skills, immediately cast distortion until one resets or you take damage then recast distortion until you can get a smite up..

When I ascended I had 2 hit points. It works but I have seen a lot of healing monks fail.

Hope this helps

Wouldnt it also work if you changed one attribute to Domination Magic and backfire him? If you got 24 ref. points elft it should work also....I mean he's a computer, he'll keep on casting spells once he's backfired, if he backfires you, you dont have to...

I used retribution and reversal of fortune then attacked with my wimpy wand and timed it so my wand hit him once after he cast reversal then I would cast reversal for his hit. The net is everytime we exchange reversals I heal 33 hps and he heals 6, it took a while but when he died I had full health. You do need to make sure you have the stats to heal back the full amount of his attacks...

If you're looking for an easy/cheesy win, just use retribution and healing breeze, he won't use healing breeze this takes less than a minute to beat it...

Guys - you're making it too hard on yourselves.

If you don't care about the bonus all you have to do is bring boon and empathy.

Boon yourself and then cast emp on him. Strafe sideways back and forth at max distance to avoid his arrows and he'll kill himself. With boon you can just keep recasting the instant enchantment to give yourself 70-100 hp every cast.

It takes about 7 or 8 minutes, but if you pumped up your illusion for the fight he'd probably only last about 2.

I have to agree with Taranis. Anyone with a mesmer main or secondary should just refund into domination and load up with backfire and useless mesmer spells. The mirror will cast himself to death really quick...usually a 5-10 second fight depending on what other spells you have equiped.

good to see some other chinese player here, I dont think Mo/Me fight mirror is any different from Mo/N. just passed it this morning.

I followed some guide of this forum. use 3 enchantments. before that, the mirror used an axe, a bow to quickly damage me and kill me. after I adjusted the spells I use against him, he only uses a staff.

I did it by loading up Domination/Smite, putting backfire, empathy, power spike, energy burn, bane signet, heal area on my guy.

Right when I went in, I target mirror and cast backfire/energy burn/banesignet on him. by this time he was ready to start healing, so I interrupted with power spike (after my 4th or 5th try, if he gets that heal area off, I was done for) and that was pretty much it, he was done for in about 15 seconds.

A Mo/* could beat its mirror simply by using 2 skills and having Divine Favor. How thats possible someone already mentioned Divine Boon along with Balthazar's Spirit. Cast it on yourself before the fight and then hit him with your staff recasting boon whenever you need a heal. Shouldn't last more than 5 mins (my staff was doing 8 dmg)
