Training dopple
Generally you want to avoid open LoS until you can get in melee with the dopple. They have high levels in Cut and Sword of Fate, as well as decent INT, and you probably don't. Once you're in melee, level 20 and 40 dopples can be defeated by simply hitting them as hard as you can. Brokle and powerful knight sword melee are popular. The level 40 dopple uses destructive sword with 70-90 damage, so you should have high HP (gob set) or good fire resistance. The level 60 dopple still uses destructive sword, but for 90-150 damage.

Recipe for defeating level 40+ dopples: powerful bwork blade (or better) + sword skill level 5.
