Doppelganger XP problem?

I'm planning out an AE arc where a few of the boss fights are against Doppelgangers. I've noticed however that when defeated the Dopps aren't dropping any rewards. no influence, no XP, no inspirations, no Tickets, nothing. Is there some special trick i'm supposed to use when using Dopps that allows them to drop rewards?

There's nothing you can do. Dopplegangers don't give rewards.

Not sure they've ever awarded anything. I could see a few things that make them problematic.

1) They only come in Boss flavor, so would only apply to Boss Encounters.
2) Woulda been easy to make a weak AT + powerset combo on second account.
3) Coulda ran mission with second account vs 87 Easy Boss Encounters and let your main account rake in the rewards.

I really feel that anyone who appreciates a well-written and designed story / action arc isn't going to mind this limitation too much.

Ah, I see. They would be easy to abuse then.

As someone who plays this game for the stories, both ingame and in my mind, I agree.

I'd play an engaging story even if it didn't give a single thing other than the experience, that's actual tangible experience, not the point kind.
