Doppelganger

Doppelganger (formerly known as Mirror Self) is the final foe before Ascension, and needs to be defeated in order to proceed in the game.

The doppelganger equips the same skills the player equips when facing it, which is one of the keys of defeating it. It has 12 rank in every attribute. It is always armed with an Eternal Bow and a Chaos Axe, both of max damage, and will switch weapons if the player it is facing comes in melee range or moves away again.

After defeating the Doppelganger, the player acquires 50,000 experience points and is teleported to Dragon's Lair. Also, if the Doppelganger is defeated in under 50 seconds, the player is awarded 1000 additional experience points.

On a side note, the origin of the word is German, where "DoppelgÃ¤nger" (note that it's Ã¤, not a) literally means "double walker", i.e. a look-alike. Traditionally, in role-playing games that have creatures called dopplegangers, they are evil beings that can take on the shape of others.
