It is Mirror Spirit.
Surprise twist.

As a result, society has shifted in a horrible direction... where nearly the entire human race has become nothing more than a bunch of Net Trolls. These trolls come to Primal Earth, and attack us while pretending to be from Praetorian Earth. Their goal is to get us to counter attack (hence the events of Going Rogue) and cause a massive (flame) war. But why? What are their goals? Do they have some Nemesis-like master plan? Do they intend to let us fight it out and then destroy both Primal and Praetorian Earths while we're at our weakest. No. Nothing that grand. They did it for the lulz. |
I can solo this map, you can't solo that map, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Oh man the ideas are just flowin! Dual Blades slap chop guy! XD
My guess is that they're building a "nested" group with AT specific subgroups inside it. The system identifies your AT and then spawns the "anti-AT" subgroup for you that is specifically built to be difficult for that AT.
For instance, if you play a blaster, the subgroup will have high defense against ranged damage. If you're a Scrapper, they constantly move out of range and plink at you. If you're a tank, they do heavy damage and have high resists.

I'm on board with this. If it's the Praetorian version of anyone else, it better be explained thoroughly.

The new foe will appear in the revamped Posi TF which ends up in the dam in Faultline... where Primal Mirror Spirit is! 3. The new foe will appear in level 20-30 missions, and Primal Mirror Spirit is in a level 15-25 zone! |

You're forgetting this is some sort of "high society" game that doesn't do "campy" things . . . regardless of how fun they could be.|

(Devs, for fun ideas, see: Pandas Vs Rikti)
Obviously, your character will be constantly followed around by a large mirror which makes your bum look big in your new costume.
