Illusionists and Doppelganger technology

Now that the Doppelganger technology exists to clone player characters...

Would it be possible for Illusion Control characters to be able to summon phantom versions of themselves as Phantom Army and Phantasm? Seeing three phantom versions of yourself with fire/ice swords and another version firing energy bolts from the sky would be pretty fantastic!

i think the phantasm is fine as it is, but using doppelganger tech for the PA would definitely be cool

The Devs have commented on it. They will not change the basic appearance of PA or Phantasm. However at some point in the future they might consider possibly giving players the option of using dopplegangers.

Maybe.

I don't want Phantom Army or Phantasm powers to change (well... maybe... Phantasm could add Power Blast in addition to Power Bolt and Energy Torrent for a more coherent attack chain), but I definitely want the doppelgangers option!

Do you remember where the Devs commented on it? I'd like to see it for myself. :3

That would be too cool if PA could look like me. I like them now, but that would be really cool.

I don't think it's a good Idea, however they should create a new power set for controllors or MM useing that idea. like the muitiple man making copy of himself.

Actually, I was thinking of it as alternative animations, like some melee powersets, only on a sort of different scale. This way, you can keep the old anonymous phantoms or have ones which appear just like you do - only as phantoms.
