not that i am aware of but basic rules should apply to the clone as they do to other monsters when player server population increases

Monsters increase in difficulty with server population and not just game population?

Hmmmm, this is an interesting question. I don't know the answer and that bothers me.

Next time I have a clone game, I'll load it up with mules and test, for science.

I just tested it on 144 about 15min ago.

Wife ran stop watch on phone.

It took me 18.75 seconds to kill a clone with just my smiter in game. 1 player

It took me 46.73 seconds to kill other clone with 4 players in game. (My smiter + 3 mules).

EDIT: So yes, clone does appear to be effected. Some friends that I asked also confirm

Did the mules join before you spawned him?

Afaik he scales based upon how many people are in game when he first appears on someones screen. So if you spawn him solo then 7 players join, its the same as 1.

Yes, the mules were present before he spawned.

One of my 3 mules was holding the game. Then 2 more mules and smiter joined. Then I took smiter to Fire Eye and clone spawned.
