Doppelganger (formerly known as Mirror Self) is the final foe before Ascension, faced during the Augury Rock Mission, and needs to be defeated in order to proceed in the game.
Both Male and Female Doppelganger are wearing a modified version of Warrior Wyvern armor, colored completely jet black. They do not wear a helm, and their faces are aflame, seemingly made of lava.
Characters that go up against their Doppelganger will see the following differences:
- The Doppelganger equips the same skills as the player has when facing it, which is one of the keys of defeating it. However, Rangers that face the Doppelganger should note that animal companions are NOT duplicated.
- It has 12 rank in every attribute except for martial weapon masteries where it has 0 rank.
- It is always armed with a Chaos Axe or a Tormented Spear, and will switch weapons depending on whether the player is in melee range or further away. Note that it can use any melee attack skills with its axe, even those tied to other melee weapon masteries. It uses its spear for both spear and bow attack skills.
- It formerly also wielded an Eternal Bow and held a black Flame Artifact when wielding it's Chaos Axe.
After defeating the Doppelganger, the player acquires 50,000 experience points (only if not already ascended in any of the 3 campaigns) and is teleported to Dragon's Lair. Also, if the Doppelganger is defeated in under 10 minutes, the player is awarded 1,000 additional experience points; this counts as the bonus for the mission (needed for the Protector of Tyria title).

[edit] Notes
- The Doppleganger has 480 Health and 40 Energy in normal mode; 680 Health and 50 Energy in Hard Mode.
- There is a conditional 50,000 experience bonus, awarded once per character, regardless of which campaign they are from. It is only available for first time ascension or equivalent. So, if any character (Prophecies native or not) has completed either of the two ascension equivalents (the Canthan mission Nahpui Quarter OR the Elonian quest Hunted!) before completing the Augury Rock mission, that character will NOT receive the 50,000 experience points for defeating the Doppleganger, only the 1,000 experience for completing the bonus.
- Although it wields an axe, the Doppelganger can use sword, hammer, dagger and scythe attack skills, and it can perform a dagger-based dual attack with the axe.
- When wielding a spear, it can use both spear and bow attack skills. However, when in melee range, it will switch to the axe, and be unable to use ranged weapon attack skills.
- See also Doppelganger on Wikipedia.
- The Doppelganger can use Winds and Vampirism, but no other PvE-only skills.
- The Doppleganger has been observed to drop Monk Tomes in Hard Mode.
- The Doppleganger is not human, and will not contract disease from you or spread it back.
- The Doppelganger's Chaos Axe deals Lightning damage with a damage range of 17-42.
- The Doppelganger's Tormented Spear deals Piercing damage with a damage range of 17-32.
