The stand and glare at you. Their defense shoots through the roof and then they start debuffing you...
and then there is screaming... horrible screaming...
City of Heroes was my first MMO, & my favorite computer game.

I helped a Sonic/Storm Corr with a Demons/Dark Mastermind. It degenerated into Pinball.
The good news is that I didn't have to do it on my Demons/Dark Mastermind!
I haven't tried it myself, but I've got to imagine that 8x Electric control could be rather difficult. Even with enough break free's to cancel out the sleep, 8-stacked Static Field and Conductive Aura should probably floor your endurance in about 3 seconds or less.

The impending chaos of 8 grav/stone doms was too much. They spawned, all hit Power Boost, and it was game over for everyone.

Well done. |
Debuffers like /dark or /storm are the hardest, I had to corner pull to take out my ds/dark clones but my ds/pain clones were easybeats.
I too was very dissapointed with stalkers. I thought I would be in a world of scary pain but all they did was stand around me spamming the first 2 attacks, I didn't have to lift a finger to survive them they couldn't touch me.
Y'know, when I started this thread, I was mostly considering theoretical issues running solo. I had no idea that so many people had already tried these sets o' doom.

Q: How do you wreck an Abrams?
A: You crash into another one.
I'm sure any Mastermind set would be hell!

Not as much as you'd think, depending on the secondary. NPC Masterminds don't get the benefit of Bodyguard, and the pets croak when then Clone dies. Just sit by the door, and send in your own pets targeted on one specific Clone. Clone goes down fairly easy, as long as you didn't bump them up to Boss status. Retreat to shed agro from the others. Repeat.|

Only died the once from the initial swarm, and even then I was able to wipe two of them before it happened.

I was an idiot. But a stubborn idiot.
Bots/Traps.
Set to allow Bosses when solo.
Took me a tray and a half of purples, and about 5 or 6 faceplants, but I got it eventually.
Which one of my toons *don't* I want to try it on, solo? My Widow. 8 Smoke Grenades ruin anybody's day (duo'd it on my Crab against clones of a friends Widow, I couldn't see a bleedin' thing for half the fight, even with yellows and Tactics...)

The way I deal with my Thugs/Dark clone is to get the clone's aggro on myself (Darkest Night etc. hit me), and then send my pets to smack my clone around. For bonus points, I can still use Darkest Night, Tar Patch, and Shadow Fall without worrying about accuracy issues, and I just have to stay out of my henchmen's way in order to keep their accuracy up.
I will admit, though, I did use Demonic Aura and an awaken while getting Army of Me on my Thugs/Dark solo.

I doubt that's the case. We've got a couple folks in this thread talking about seeing their doppelgangers use powers higher than the mission level. Something I can confirm after seeing the Spider pets on the Posi run I took my Wolf Spider on.|

I'm thinking if Thugs/Dark was going to have access to fluffy, then they'd have it at any level you'd face them at.

When I tried it with my Mercs/TA MM, I had a split second to go "oh CRAP" as the hail of debuffing arrows and gunfire came my way. Not a pleasant experience.
So I tried it with my bots/dark MM... an unfortunately similar experience. So next time I will take several friends in with me.
