This is how I goof off waitng for favor of the gods...observe the 1337ness. 18 seconds flat...

...No war stories ppl, just screens

As you can see from the second screen it wasnt more than 1 second after the first if you look closely at the skill recharge, (etc) for those that know your skills.

In particular the Blue NRG bar (to kill all arguements wayyyy in advanced).

There is nothing stupid about it... the dopple ganger is meant to teach you about your characters weakness, and how to exploit it. In a real life level, if we know our weaknesses, when can move to better it and better ourselfs as a whole.

"Duking it out" is primitive to say the least.

Warrior I just hit straight out killed him.
Ranger I had him cast spirits, and then killed him while he was busy.
And on my E/Mo, I just nuked him.

All under 15 seconds.

How long does it take to cast meteor shower again?... well I don't know the exact number but one meteor shower and firestorm got the job done, No AOE running for life!

My guess is around 20 seconds, not a record ok pretty good for a monk I guess.

It's the funniest thing. It's a guarantee'd 10 second(ish) victory, and you don't have to do ANYTHING! You only put 2 skills on your skillbar:

Awaken the Blood
Verata's Aura

Just stand there and watch.

LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!!

About 2 minutes with my Ranger/Warrior and I accomplished this impossible task by equipping with a few long casting spirits and an interrupt, waiting until the dopple was busy casting a spirit, switching to a sword and bum-rushing his sorry butt! Yeah, he tried to cast Troll Unguent a few times, but distracting blow took care of that in a real f-in hurry!

I'M SO AWESOME! I AM THE MOST MODEST PERSON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD, TOO!! NOBODY IS MORE MODEST THAN I AM!!

If I am not mistaken backfire takes some time to cast...I am assuming this is a joke...

< 20 sec with Ele

Ele is too easy, load up on long casting AOE spells like Metor Shower, Fire Rain and flare them to death while it casts Fire Rain on you

I don't recall, struggled with monk and necro. Just did my ranger last night. put two worthless spirit spells on my skill bar, which Doppleganger proceeded to activate, the rest of my skill bar was empty.

Went up the ramp and stood above the Doppleganger. Shot him down with arrows in 48 seconds.

nah i found a much better way to exploit the doppleganger with a necro. entirely on accident too. can get 50k exp for 4 seconds of work with an unascended necro. just load up on sac skills and dark aura. run up to the doppleganger and hell start saccing. youll start saccing. and generally youll die then hell die RIGHT after. youll get the 50k but fail the mission. of course people shouldnt abuse this bug.

No screens, but I killed mine in <20 seconds, in a straight out mesmer battle.

The point of Guildwars is that skill is more vital than character setup. The doppleganger hammers home this message in its design, and its saddening that most people exploit its setup for an easy win.

I don't know what to say exactly......the comments about the necros being able to just load up on sacrifice skills and it kills itself is ...well...false. It doesnt.....even the "Awaken the blood and Verata's Aura" combo....doesn't work. Im not trying it 5-6 months ago....Im trying it now....which is really all that matters.

Backfire and Sacrifices. Poor Dopple never had a chance. Arguably the best/easiest combination to beat Dopple.

backfire, and a lot of 1 second casting time skills that don't make sense (I did took some damage, but he took much more, 6 seconds= 5 spells he used = 5x120 damage = ^_^ shatter delusions when hes almost death ^_^

With my ranger i beat him in 4 seconds, I had Poison Arrow and Conjure Phantasum. The rest was spirits, I came in and poisioned him first, then Conjured him and he was still trying to get his first spirit up when he died.

How about longest time?

It took me a minute and a half to kill him on my Mo/W...I had Healing Breeze (Which he didn't use), Prot Spirit (Because he was doing 100 to me without it), Frenzy (Double damage with...), Retribution.

I would wand him to death and he plucked away at me. I kept up healing breeze, prot and retribution. I was only level 9 so it took me a LONG ass time to finally kill him. At the very end I would run out of energy, so prot would drop and I was dead.
