Modifier : Mirror
Works on: Meshes, Polys
3ds Max Description : The Mirror modifier provides a parametric method of mirroring an object or a sub-object selection. You can apply the Mirror modifier to any type of geometry, and you can animate the mirror effect by animating the modifier’s gizmo.

My 2 Cents :Mirror modifier allows for procedural mirroring of objects. As a one time operation i do not find to be that great (i rather use symmetry modifier). That being said, if stacked, the mirror modifier can then be used as almost a procedural radial array. Like most modifiers, Mirror can be applied to sub-objects which again takes advantage of 3ds Max’s procedural and/or parametric modeling capabilities.
