Mine had Dual Pistols and just sort of stood there changing ammo. I didn't even notice when he died. Since my in-character personality wouldn't have noticed, either, it worked out quite theatrically. 
Ice Armor. The arc just gets more awesome with every mission.
A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!
Mine had kinetics and thermal, so all he really did was buff and debuff... which i didnt really mind :P
I have no idea what powers my Bots/Traps clone had, because all he did was run up to Ajax and dance.

Q: How do you wreck an Abrams?
A: You crash into another one.
My DM/DA Brute's clone was a Plant/Thorn Dom (which is interesting since I actually have one of those). Carrion Creepers FTW! Although I'm dreading 8x Creepers on my Plant Dom...

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...

Making the A.I. that bad on purpose is just fantastic. MMOs are always smoke and mirrors, but the developers were freaking Zatanna with this one.
Pretty sure mine was a stalker. Stayed invisible, stayed in melee. Looked like my MM - at least like his outline.
Radiation emission/pain domination. 
It was an easy fight.

My best guess for this would be that since I was way back away from the fight, the clone thought he had been abandoned and re-captured, and that he just had the wrong emote tagged for that scenario.

Well done. |
Mine was a Crab spider with dual pistols and pain domination. I now demand that my Crab Spider be able to pack heat alongside his back lasers.

For my claw/sr brute, it was trick arrow/ela... Something. It only used the electric aura from that set but it used those trick arrow powers better then some players I've seen. Not only did it survive ajax, it had full health the whole time. (I think my hitting him with focus and shockwave may have had something to do with that.) I even stayed for the ambushes because everytime one spawned, they got stunned and all I had to do was pick them off. Its good to know that its random. I wonder what it will be next time.

My elec/dark stalker became a thugs/ poison???? mastermind. She had some pistol attacks, anenforcer, an arsonist, and a bruiser. I think it was poison, but it might have been thermal. Something greenish (I wasn't too close).
Mine was an Energy Melee/ Shield Brute. Surprisingly, this worked really well alongside my DB/WP brute.
Heh, I wasn't expecting that. Almost exited the mission thinking something had gone wrong.

My Crab Spider's FC was an Elec Melee/Shield something. Lacked the Crab backpack of my character though. Clone's survivability was pretty crap actually, died before I could take down the second device. Ajax seemed much more interested in it than me.
My Thugs/Dark Miasma MM got a Katana/Willpower Scrapper for a 'clone'. Despite the extremely flawed nature of my clone, it was extremely good at distracting Ajax and surviving any stray Wyvern while I destroyed the devices. My clone didn't die until just after Ajax did.
My clone wasn't particularly useful at killing Ajax, but very useful as a distraction. Perhaps Ajax didn't realize who was who!

My mind/psi dom's flawed clone was a SS(I think)/Elec brute. He managed to distract Ajax quite nicely.
My Arachnos Soldier when I played it on test was a thugs/Dark miasma...the damn thing did better than I did!
As soon as the last device dropped she debuffed Ajax every which way from sunday and took him out like a punk before I could even run back!
She moped up the Wyvern ambush too.
Seriously scientists...I said a FLAWED clone...not one that does a better job at kicking backside than I do!
My Mercs/TA MM found herself cloned as a Plant/Rad. Ajax didn't stand a chance - she practically killed him by herself as soon as the psychic things were down.

Nice to know I wasn't the only one who was put to shame by their supposedly flawed clone...
My merc/dark was some kind of claws/ninja stalker.
In the Arena of Logic, I fight unarmed.
My Mace/Inv Brute's clone turned out to be Umbral Blast/Storm.
A pretty awesome sounding combo, but he got pwned by Ajax.

What was your Flawed Clone in the last mission?
I ran it yesterday with my Claws/Nin Stalker and his Flawed Clone had Energy Melee and Dark Miasma. He managed to hold his own against Ajax while I destroyed the devices. After I had destroyed the last one, he had Ajax down to 25% health by the time I got into the fray.
On test I ran it with my Ninjas/Dark MM and his had Energy Blast and Radiation Emission. He also held his own against Ajax, but went down just as I destroyed the last device.
