Doppelgangers are enemies encountered in Legends of Aranna inside the Tower of Kmethekt.

Doppelgangers themselves have no attack. When they sight an enemy, they immediately transform into a copy of him/her and engage with the weapons that the target has.

Strategy against Doppelgangers[]

The main strength of a Doppelganger is using it's opponents weapons against them and their own relatively high health. Doppelgangers are capable of mimicking the appearance but not the capabilities of their targets armor or clothing.

They will only transform once and will assume this new form until they are killed. Their high speed and high health make them difficult to outrun which can make them deadly to lone adventurers.

Trivia[]

  • Doppelgangers cannot use magic spells when transforming. It is unknown if this is a bug, or was coded as a balancing issue. A Doppelganger that constantly uses "heal" upon itself would be practically invincible due to the default script giving it infinite mana - although it would also not be capable of attacking either.
  • Doppelgangers are almost exactly the same as real life doppelgangers found in earth mythology. Both types are associated with evil and/or misfortune.
