The Doppelganger is an enemy from Last Legacy: Null Space and the chapter's final boss. His name comes from the fact that he bears a strong resemblance to the hero. He appears only in Dimension: Dissonance. When the hero finds the portal in this level, it is blocked by a wall; the Doppelganger then appears and explains that he once destroyed an entire civilization, and was imprisoned inside Null Space for this crime by an ancient hero. He observes that the wormhole is only strong enough to allow one person through, and so battles the hero so that he can go through the portal (and, presumably, into the hero's home dimension) instead of the hero himself. However, the hero defeats the Doppelganger, who explodes into light.

Battle

The Doppelganger has more HP than any other enemy in the game, with 125 HP in the Level Designer code (400 HP in Hard Mode. During battle, the Doppelganger floats in the air high above the ground, keeping away from the hero while using powerful magical attacks. Attacks include:

  • Charging electricity and firing three lightning bolts, each longer than the last.
  • Charging dark energy and firing three dark flux blasts.
  • Throwing four thorn balls which bounce around the area.
  • Throwing five ice balls which expand into ice pillars.

Unlike the boss of Chapter 1, the Doppelganger has no particular weak point or invulnerability, and can be hurt with any attack at any time. Since the Doppelganger spends his time in the air, though, it is difficult to attack with close-ranged weapons, so it is best to use a magic weapon and items that increase magical power. A close-ranged weapon is useful for blocking thorn balls and ice balls, as well as deflecting flux blasts; the electric attack can be dodged by staying away from the Doppelganger while he is charging. The fight will be long because of the Doppelganger's high HP and avoidance, but enough pounding from magic attacks will eventually bring him down.

Being the final boss, the Doppelganger has no item drops.
