I don't believe they're supposed to have powers higher level than yours. The patch on the beta server actually fixes the bug for a lot of powersets/ATs that aren't Kheldeans.

Now, are these WAI? I assume the first one is a bug, but is it a known bug? And do dopplegangers in general have access to powers greater than your current level? |

1) Your double will have any powers available to your powerset, whether you have them yourself or not. I don't know why it changed to a Warden. |

2) Since the arc caps at level 30, it's possible that they will have access to powers up to 5 levels above that just like a player who is exemped. I can't say for sure though.
The first one is WAI. My double had Shockwave (Sonic Blast Shockwave, not Claws) and my blaster has NEVER had that power.
I don't know if the second is WAI, but I suspect it probably is.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I knew that the power selections could vary. I wasn't surprised so much by the White Dwarf, just the odd skin.|

I find your lack of signature disturbing.

I've seen the "Kheldian Warden doppelganger" in the Positron TF too.
My friend's PB's doppelganger turned into a Longbow Warden when she used the rez power. Seems there's something strange going on with Peacebringer code.

All my characters
Doesn't mention Peacebringers, but from the beta server:
Doppelgangers
Fixed a bug that would cause doppelgangers that use Soldiers of Arachnos, Time Manipulation, Beam Rifle, Street Justice, Titan Weapons, Staff Fighting, Beast Mastery or Darkness Control powers to use powers outside of their intended level ranges.
The Longbow Warden thing also happens with Stone Armor doppelgangers and AE critters. I was testing an AE miss with a Stone armor dude. He looked normal, turned into granite, I killed him, then a Longbow Warden popped out. Dangdest thing, I had to remove Granite from him to prevent the headache.
-STEELE =)
Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)
