It could have no personality, and never speak a word - it could just copy the powers of its target, then use them to attack.
Ooh, like Super Adaptoid or Amazo. That could be pretty sweet.

Regardless, I'm curious to see what they mean by Dark Mirror enemies from the Issue 17 overview.

In my opinion, no. The overview describes a single enemy who you encounter in both the story arcs in Levels 20-30 and the Positron TF. Which I'll remind you is a TEAM exercise. Therefore, a replicated version of you seems unlikely.


Bad Voodoo by @Beyond Reach. Arc ID #373659. Level 20-24. Mr. Bocor has fallen victim to a group of hooded vigilantes who have been plaguing Port Oakes, interfering with illegal operations and pacifying villain's powers. He demands that revenge is taken on these miscreants and his powers are returned! You look like just the villain for the job. Challenging.

Wouldn't it be sick if they pulled a random villain from each member of a team and created a counter-strick force.

Unless everyone on the team gets duplicated. That could be brutal; the more well balanced the team, the more dangerous the enemy would be.

I would love to face a team of ourselves. At least costume/primary/secondary combos would be enough. Not sure if it's possible code wise, but still would be nice. I'm assuming stupid AI might make things less harsh.

Would make for a fun 8 man scrapper TF. "Ok, everyone fight themselves. Whoever dies first pays for the beer."
