Howdy all just thought i'd add a good mimic (or doppleganger) char that could be interesting to add.

How It Works:

MIMIC:

1. The NPC sees its target and copys the equipment and combat stats.
2. The NPC evaluates if the stats of the character benefits most through either magery or other combat skills through the characters Intelligence. If the intelligence of the character is under 100, It will assume it is a melee character and remove all the intelligence and mana it owns and charges with the users weapon (or just shoots if archer).
3. On death the NPC drops standard loot through a template.
4. Upon Killing an opponent, the Mimic will remove it's transformed tag and become ready to morph again upon seeing a new player. If it doesnt kill and the player leaves, it will retain the form until killing or until death.

DARK MIMIC:

1. The NPC sees its target and copys the equipment, colours them dark and copies combat stats whilst increasing the magery stats by times 4.
2. The NPC evaluates if the stats of the character benefits most through either magery or other combat skills through the characters Intelligence. If the intelligence of the character is under 100, It will assume it is a melee character and remove all the intelligence and mana it owns and charges with the users weapon (or just shoots if archer). The dexterity and strength of the Dark Mimic is four times the amount of the person it copied and if qualified, also 4 times the intelligence.
3. On death, the Dark Mimic spawns a Dark Mount, which is tameable and fairly strong. (NOTE IT ONLY COPIES HORSES, LLAMAS, OSTARDS AND ZOS, IT DOES NOT COPY ANY OTHER MOUNT UNLESS THE EVENT IS MODIFIED). It still drops loot from it's corpse
4. Upon Killing an opponent, the Dark Mimic will remove it's transformed tag and become ready to morph again upon seeing a new player. If it doesnt kill and the player leaves, it will retain the form until killing or until death.
