Talk about a great way to stop any warrior from advancing on your monks, or a team attempting to flee.

You don't cast it, you let the Doppleganger cast it on you... then you cast away at your leisure and don't take damage.

Interesting thing to note is that even though the target is resistant to damage per the description of Iron Mist, they're still vulnerable to degen and I /think/ life stealing effects like vamp gaze, grenth's balance, etc.
They're also vulnerable to on-hit effects. Just like someone in mist form can be interrupted and knocked down, etc...you can do this to someone with Iron Mist, even if you can't damage them.
For instance, if you happen to spot an unsuspecting caster, you can use maelstrom and iron mist on them--it's a bit expensive, but with luck, timing, and perhaps some covering hexes, you should be able to keep casting down for at least a few seconds.

Degen and Life-Stealing is not considered damage by GW's standards.
I fought a team running an Iron Mist + Lightning damage build in GvG once, and it was annoying ><". Nice work by them though. Maybe it was because we were running Ranger Spike that we lost...o....Ranger Spike...you can't hate it...I luv it...I know this sentence is a huge run-on but...Ranger Spike.
RANGER SPIKE FTW!
