Max Mirrored Target first

I have some new insight that maxing mirrored target first could produce more damage.
you could have more dodge chance. This increases the likeliness of activating shadow meld.
Shadow Meld gives 15 attk and 100% crit chance. this increases your damage output substantially.

I didn't do the math but I'm just wondering if this would be viable in skill build.

it would go something like
1. 1sp into all attacking skills
2. 9 into blade fury (to hit 6 instead of 5)
3. Max Duel wield expert (for more base damage)
4. Max sharpness (for more crit damage and crit chance)
5. Max Toxic venom (for more overall damage output)
6. Max thorns (for no knock back and more damage)
7. Max Final cut (for more overall damage [the buff])
8. Max Mirrored target (for more shadow meld proc chance and less taxing on potions)
9. Max Blade Fury
10. Max Phantom Blow
11. Max Maple Warrior
12. Max Sudden Raid

EDIT: right now, most people would max blade fury first but after training in time temple for some time, i rarely use blade fury and use FA or BS more.

I think you'd hit the avoid cap without mirrored target? I didn't notice much difference before and after I got it. That was back when I had 100% dodge rate. Now the cap is even lower.
