What's up with it? A dummy appears? It's supposed to be a perfect duplicate of you that draws enemy attention. You are supposed to move ot via a Bonus action. SO disappointing.

They could literally clone Shadowheart's model and apply the same illusion effect to it. And move it like Flaming Sphere. There's no excuse. I hope the dummy is a placeholder. It lacks all flavor and sensibility.

The dummy has to be a placeholder, especially considering Invoke Duplicity lacks any of its utility like spell origination or tricking enemies.

They already greatly increased the radius so party members can get advantage too.

The ability to cast your spells through another target that isn't you is a major feature, both of Invoke Duplicity, and of Familiars - some might argue the primary perk of these abilities, outside of roleplay situations. The hope is that these key fetures will appear when the major casting revision comes down to us, whenever it does.
