So we ran the Posi TF-the one where you fight the team of clones!

Yea, we got to the end, we were all ready to jump in-enter cut scene. Team leader was the bad guy. ok....

Cut scene passes, we think its a bug. We enter the room in cityhall.... yea, only the "cloned" team leader is present. What happened to the entire cloned team?!

Is this a bug? I couldnt find patch notes for this.

I believe some of the new powersets are giving the dopplegangers trouble. It's a bug, definitely.

Did anyone disconnect trying to load into that mission? I've seen where the disconnected person's clone is replaced by an additional clone of someone else on the team.


Edit:
I just reread the OP. Are you saying that there was just a single clone (the team leader's) and none of the rest of the team's clones were present? If so, wow, I'm stumped. I've seen cases where someone logged off (not quit) early in the TF and never came back, but they were still represented by a clone (again a duplicate of someone else's clone).


Teams are the number one killer of soloists.

Slightly related, I had heard recently that some of the clones in that mish are able to use Tier 9 powers. Is that correct?

(My understanding was that this was the case for clones of characters with newer power sets like Time or Beam Rifle.)

Twice on my BS/Regen I've gotten to this mission to find 6 correct dopplegangers, 1 random person with two dopplegangers, and none for me.

My main has actually not yet fought herself on this mission, and is currently a villain so can't keep trying.

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

I had a run last month on a full team of 8; we got 8 clones of the team leader and none of the rest of the party. Unfortunately the team lead was Ill/Time so things got interesting with 8 sets of Phantom Army and all the slows and holds flying. I can't remember offhand if they summoned Phantasms or not but it was a real challenge since most of the team were in Posi level range of 11-16. As I recall we loaded up on insps and worked on single pulling them to clear the thing.

Ouch.

I did a Posi recently, where 3 of the people were Time. The clones were remarkably good at locking us down; we also had to pull individuals to get them cleared out.


I find your lack of signature disturbing.

I can say with certainty that I've seen Simulacra using both Chrono Shift and Overcharge, yes.

Had this happen to us the other day, unfortunately the team leader was a bubbler. 8x Dispersion Fields and no psychics on our side. It was quite impossible our first try, came back with everyone stacking yellows and they went down eventually.
