Hey man
Mirroring in rig symetrical characters are a little tricky.
1. Joints should be mirrored in mode behavioral
2. Controlers should mirror in two ways:
a. duplicate groups then scale -1 then freeze
b. duplicate groups then scale -1 then no freeze
it is depend on capability of controlers.
good luck!
