Exactly as the title says.

Example, I.E. scepter/pistol. you have 2 iDuelists up, and you keep your scepter auto attack going. Each 3rd hit, it erases the single clone to summon another, does that cause it to do a shatter, assuming you have the proper traits to make it do effect / damage on death.

It doesn’t shatter, but it does apply the effects of clone death traits.

Overwriting clones counts as a clone death and will trigger the appropriate traits.
Shattering clones does not trigger on clone death skills, and clone deaths are not shatters.
Traits which say “on illusion death” are actually “on clone death” and will never trigger off of phantasms.
