Best Of

Welp, after milking the daily super event, as well as the entirety of my BG token and glory stash, I was able to make the rank ups I needed to get this done. Time to spin the Wheel of Fate for a second time! Since these fights are exactly the same as the first quest, I won't go too into detail regarding nodes unless there are specific interactions to look out for.

The Stash:
5818 units
21 L2 revives
21 L1 revives
2 L3 revives
2 L2 team revives (do NOT use these btw)
Loads of L5 potions, used pretty much all of my L3 potions during the first quest and was too lazy to farm more
900 free crystals
Bunch of boosts which were actually used this time, though not for the entire run

Masteries:
Same as my previous run, so no suicides with willpower. Max despair is STRONGLY recommended for Gorr.

Journey to Thanos:

Fight: Gorr
My pick: 7* R2 sig 100 Void with no relic
Deaths: 0
Know how to evade Gorr's sp2, other than that try not to take blocked hits and then just kill him via regen reversal. Bit of a scary one but it's the first fight so restart until you get a clean run.

Fight: Dazzler
My pick: 7* R4 sig 80 Silk with 6* spidey 2099 relic
Deaths: 0
Mind the dazzling dash every 10 tempo, however keep in mind that Dazzler cannot do this once she hits 100 tempo so just bait the sp1 and you'll be fine. Intercept while the dash isn't ready to remove any power gain charges you get so you can throw specials safely. Not a hard fight but a long one.

Fight: Lady Deathstrike
My pick: 7* R2 unduped Medusa with no relic
Deaths: 0
Deathstrike can't activate her regen and unstoppable while she doesn't have armor ups, which makes Medusa perfect for this one. Use sp1 to armor shatter then drop a juicy sp2 for some big damage, alternate between those specials to maximize damage. Time your dashes with the power removal timer and you'll be fine, this one's quite straightforward.

Fight: Enchantress
My pick: 7* R3 sig 40 Hulk with 6* hulk relic
Deaths: 2
Know how to fully evade Enchantress' sp1, then just play around the spells per normal. Revive count here will greatly vary depending on AI cooperation, died twice due to spell shenanigans myself.

Fight: Thor Ragnarok
My pick: 7* R2 sig 40 Hyperion with 5* gamora relic
Deaths: 0
Hyperion absolutely claps this fight since his power gain ensures you almost always have specials at the ready to disable Thor's power gain. Keep the brace buff removed as much as possible, and weave in heavy attacks while it isn't active for big damage. Very easy fight.

Fight: Arcade
My pick: 7* R3 unduped Serpent with 5* ms marvel relic
Deaths: 1
Easy fight to manage, play around the stun immunity and remember the spacing for Arcade's sp1. Messed up really badly on my first try, should've absolutely been a solo.

Fight: Leader
My pick: 7* R3 unduped Bullseye with 5* valkyrie relic
Deaths: 0
Very easy fight, try to primarily use medium attacks and do not hit block or else your regen from close encounters will get reversed. Bait sp1, be aggressive, and stay away from the green door and you should have this one quite easily. Speaking of Bullseye...

Fight: Bullseye
My pick: 7* R2 unduped Professor X with 5* storm relic
Deaths: 1
NOTE: From this point onward I was running full hour long health, attack and champion boosters
This was the fight I was most worried about since I didn't have an awakened Dazzler handy. Get to 25 of your charges asap so you can counter Bullseye's evade, then push to sp2 as much as possible since it is fully evadable. However, you will take a lot of bleed damage from dexing the sp2, so you are on a big health crunch here. Race to sp3 with 100 charges asap, bait a sp2, then activate mind control and start special spamming. After mind control ends, get your 25 charges again to counter the evade and try to get mind control back asap. If you don't think you can survive to that point, throw out whatever specials you can to deal some big damage before you die. Even with max boosts on I was shocked by how cheap this fight was, reckon a fully boosted R3 or R4 with a power booster could solo with good gameplay.

Fight: Torch
My pick: 7* R2 sig 80 Deathless She Hulk with no relic
Deaths: 0
Easy fight. Know how to evade Torch's sp1, spam sp1 to prevent the debuff immunity, and make sure to throw heavies in quick succession when removing the protection to minimize the amount of smoulder you are giving him. Trauma damage will ramp up quick so this one shouldn't be too bad.

Fight: Serpent
My pick: 7* R3 unduped Chavez with 6* iron fist relic
Deaths: 2
Keep at least 2 stacks of purple dimension up at all times to minimize Serpent's power gain, aside from that just try to play around serpents mechanics and do as much damage as you can. This one isn't fun, be ready to die a fair amount here.

Fight: Spiral
My pick: 7* R3 sig 20 Hit Monkey with 6* black panther relic
Deaths: 1
Not a hard fight in theory, though with the falter, dancing blades and combat deja vu it is very easy to mess up and die, like what happened to me. Use medium-light combos to prevent the unblockable and watch out for the automatically firing dancing blades on special attacks. Pay attention and you should get through this one.

Fight: Dust
My pick: 7* R3 sig 160 Sunspot with 6* gambit relic
Deaths: 2
Sunspot's incinerates can deal with the sand debuffs quite well, however whenever you parry stun Dust she will go unblockable for a bit which can slow you down a lot. Get 4 stacks of flare state, then just spam sp3s to keep them up at all times. Once you are in killing range, take her down with a big sp2. Messed up quite a bit here.

Fight: Thanos
My pick: 7* R2 unduped Beta Ray Bill with no relic
Deaths: 5
Beta Ray Bill is a champion I absolutely despise playing, and this fight just solidifies that for me. Mind the inverted controls and unblockable specials, use heavy attacks for the grit buff to counter the unstoppable and hope that Thanos actually plays in to the infuriate from heavy charging and doesn't just dash back and block, because that totally didn't happen to me many times during this fight... (Seriously though, never understood why people enjoy playing Bill, this character doesn't feel smooth or fun at all)

And that's Quest 2 in the bin! Was quite a bit more expensive compared to my first run, but it still wasn't that crazy in terms of revives.

The Final Cost:
14 L2 revives
Bunch of L5 potions
One set of hour long health, attack and champion boosters
Not a single unit, once again.

The Rewards:
Chose a Gladiator awakening from my 7* nexus, gonna need him for Quest 3 later down the line.
Pulled 7* Galan from my titan crystal. Not too shabby.

Final Thoughts and Tips:
1. As mentioned before, the fights are exactly the same as the previous quest, it's just that the champion choice node pools are now different. Make sure you plan ahead before committing to a run.
2. Got quite a few rank ups to do before I do Quest 3. I gotta R2 Gladiator and most likely Jean Grey to help me get through the quest, and I also gotta R3 a currently undecided champ to clear my T4A stash before I get the rewards.
3. Boost up. Obviously.
4. Trying to think of a good title for the final guide. I'm currently thinking "Centrifugal Mutilation", though that might be a little dark. Open to suggestions in the replies.

Thanks for reading, and until I've rebuilt my T6 basic and T3 alpha stash, hope this helped y'all!

Lol you guys are so jealous.
The forums were a mess with people pissed and others making fun (guilty here). The only way to make up for that is make others wish they had been banned by mistake.

It’s far from jealousy, in fact the more power to the banned players. I’m just amazed at the decision to give the most generous compensation in history, when there are much more serious gameplay issues that affect the entire player with nothing being done. Good on the people that were lucky enough to get it, I would just love to hear an explanation from anyone at kabam at the reasoning behind units and radiance being included in a 1 week compensation package.

You keep on saying "in history", situation like this never happened before
You keep on demanding explanation. Why? Who are you?
Good for them they got stuff after being suspended, and ridiculed when asking for help. Good they got atuff big deal. You keep on saying 150 bucks worth, 150 bucks doesn't buy much this days. Unless you are like 10 and get a 10 dollar allowance a week.

1) I use the phrase in history because there is precedent for things much larger than this happening in game without units being included in compensation.

2) never demand anything. I said, “I would love to hear…” As for who I am, I’m a dedicated player that has played for the last 8 years and is probably in the top 2% of spenders.

3) I honestly couldn’t care what random people on a forum said about me. Ridicule me all you want and I won’t lose a minute of sleep over it.

4) if $150 is nothing to you, dm me and I’ll give you my Venmo/paypal/zelle and you can transfer me $150 since it’s basically nothing.

1- Name a situation that was worse than this. Than being banned for no reason
2- this seems pretty demanding to me, I mean someone losing a job? Rofl
Oh yeah "I either want" is not demanding 🤡


3- Really? Are you sure? Cause you call people white knights when they disagree with you, seems that it bothers you.
4- Its not that much to spend on things I enjoy, I would probably enjoy more burning it than giving it to a cry baby.

Well let’s see, when the input system was broken system was severely broken for multiple months (this was a couple of years ago). If you want something more recent, how about the current dropped input, light intercepts, and ai issues that kabam has acknowledged but we have yet to receive a single shard as compensation for issues that have existed for months.

Obviously I don’t expect anyone to be fired, it was hyperbole. What I think the community is warranted is accountability and explanations. Do I expect it? No. Will I quit the game if I don’t get it? No. Do I have any way of demanding it? No. Do I think it’s warranted? Yes

Not insulted in the least. Come at me with everything you got, I’ve dealt with way worse and it’s water off a duck. If anything you seem to be a bit defensive about being called a white knight. Did I hit a nerve there?

Do it! You speak a big game, take a video with today’s date and your forum name with a pile of $150 on fire. Or are you all talk?

So the options are light it on fire or give it to you? How about I go to the casino tonight put it all on black in roulette? Lol
I talk a big game? You are triggered over 4500 units while claiming to be in the top 2% of spenders.. hahahahaha 4500 units that's literally 15 banquet crystals but you are in the 2% whale category ROFL

I come with receipts

I've only done the first chapter but I would categorize the fights into three groups:

1) The fun ones! I soloed Gorr with Count Nefaria, Thor Rags with Adam Warlock, and Arcade with Vox; and single revives on Human Torch (with Silk), Bullseye (with Sinister) and Serpent (with Spiral). I had a lot of fun with those.

2) The annoying ones, which weren't really hard per se but just took a buttload of time. Lady Deathstrike is a prime example. I used Punisher 2099 and while I think I made two initial attempts that basically went nowhere, my third attempt was a 10-minute slog to the finish line. Dazzler was kind of similar. At first I had a lot of trouble fighting her simply because I'm not used to fighting Dazzler with or without nodes, but once I learned how to fight her, it still took a long time to get through.

3) The really hard fights. You either have Ironheart for Dust, or you don't. And if you don't...whoo, boy! I think Gorr and Bullseye are similar in that you can just be way out of luck if you don't have very specific counters. And let's not forget Thanos. Everything had been quite manageable until I got to him, but that grumpy old grandpa just...wouldn't...die. I used more revives on him than throughout the rest of the quest combined, I think.

But as you can see, the fun fights ultimately outnumbered the annoying or really hard ones, so I'll call that a win. Were the rewards terribly good after this first round? No. But at least I've gotten through one round, and generally gotten a feel for the content. That feels good, at least.

First wanted to say that I’m not a whale or even a casual spender. Broke my f2p streak last year with the BrB pass but I don’t usually spend on anything here. Not something I’d mention usually but wanted to add it as a disclaimer because I saw a lot of people (especially on the discord) saying this was pretty much made for whales

Left my entire quest overview + revives used and then left my thoughts at the bottom. Skip there if you don’t care about the quest itself. Hope this helps someone, feel free to ask questions. Also took a bunch of screenshots but I think this post is long enough as is

Quest 1

Gorr - Nefaria r2. Just used sp1 spam and that’s it, stay in his ionic thing and you’re good (solo)

Dazzler - Peni r1. Slow played this fight and didn’t bother to intercept. Pushed her back with the striker and by hitting her block (solo but very long)

LDS - Prowler r3. Just spammed sp3 mainly and had to use sp1’s here and there to remove that overcharge effect he has. Took 18 whole minutes but it’s easy, just super boring (solo)

Enchantress - Onslaught r3. Sp2, sp1. Learn how to dodge the sp1 and just play onslaught like normal. I missed the dex and when she gets the incinerate your block gets shredded so I got her to 6% (1 revive)

Thor Rags - Adam r4. Very easy fight, just threw sp2’s and ate the damage in the pod. You hit like a truck and you just break his block (solo)

Arcade - Vox r1. Just spam sp1 and use the dex trick to dodge his sp1. He does awesome here even at r1 (solo)

Leader - Mantis r2. I pushed him to sp2 and he got me once, but easy fight aside from that. I think she wants to be awakened here though? I think I should’ve used Black Cat but she did fine (1 revive)

Bullseye - Guilly 2099 r2. No sinister here so I was super worried but she’s probably the next best. Power drain on the sp1, make sure to dex at least a few of the projectiles on the sp1 as well. I did take some unnecessary block damage here by missing parries so I think I could do this in one revive but idk, a r3 would definitely do great here (2 revives)

Torch - Silk r3. Just pay attention to the debuff immunity thing and make sure to perform the right actions to remove his protection. I forgot he went debuff immune at one point and ate a combo but she can solo (1 revive)

Serpent - Wiccan r2. Honestly thought this would be way easier but he shreds your block. Was being annoying a bit but it was ok. Keep the neutralize up and try and push him to sp2 (3 revives)

Spiral - Deathless She-Hulk r2. Very fun fight with her, make sure to pay attention to her stun node but I was doing medium -> heavy. She turns off a lot of stuff here, just hit her when she’s stunned mainly and bait sp1. Also make sure to dex out of the way of her dancing blades or parry them. I got hit with them once but she works like a charm (1 revive)

Dust - Ironheart r3. Sp1 spam, you can safely parry once you have 5+ debuffs, and hit her regularly to make sure she doesn’t get armors. She melts her (solo)

Thanos - Dani r1. This fight is tedious without Jean. I didn’t wanna rank Dani up so I just threw her at him until he died lol. Not too bad for a r1 honestly (6-7 revives)

Overall around 15 revives. Some fights could’ve been done better for sure but I’m happy with this run, just used some of my stash on it. Aside from Thanos no fight was super revive intensive even using r1’s and r2’s




Quest 2

Gorr: r4 Adam. He does this so well, sp3 when you have the fury from the counter and just keep hitting him. Took around 2 mins and he was down. A r3 can also solo it and he’s the fastest. Otherwise use Void or Wong (solo)

Dazzler: r3 Starky. Another super fast fight. Build to 10 poise, you’re hitting 25k mediums and you have a power drain if you push her to sp2. Ham is the best best option I believe (solo)

LDS: r2 Medusa. Armor shatter and spam sp2. Not a super long fight even with a r2 but not a short one either (solo)

Enchantress: r3 Hulk. She’s annoying but it was mainly a skill thing, I was able to dex with onslaught but for some reason I kept eating sp1’s here. Still not bad cause you can stun lock her (2 revives)

Thor Rags: r2 Hyperion. This fight should’ve been a solo, he’s amazing for it. Great damage from the incinerates and you can gain power easily to counter his power gain. He was at 700 health when I messed up and pushed him to sp3 but Hyperion is probably the best here aside from CB (1 revive)

Arcade: r2 Serpent. Another fight that I messed up by walking into the poison cloud which does a lot of damage. Goal here is to just dex out of the cloud and then dash in (2 revives)

Leader: r3 Photon. I had no idea what was going on this fight but you can sp3 super fast cause of the power gain and you can stay close with the sp2 untouchable. I like this fight, just learn the sp1 dex and you can use bullseye or CB here (solo)

Bullseye: r2 sunspot. Dazzler at high sig or Sunspot seem like the only good options here. Honestly not a bad fight, he has high damage and PB even if he takes bleed damage. One fight he was being a jerk so maybe could’ve been one revive but I’ll take it (2 revives)

Torch: r2 DSH. She works super well for this fight but the AI was being so stingy with the specials even with the trauma on him. I took off like 60% on the last attempt though and he was playing along (2 revives)

Serpent: r3 Chavez. Pro tip, don’t take an sp1 to the face. Other than that, she works perfectly. Knock him down a lot and heal with her healing dimension + spam the power gain dimension (1 revive)

Spiral: r3 bullseye. Very fun and easy fight with him. I did parry, medium, heavy, and he can evade out of the blades. He also ignores the falter. Just learn the sp1 dex (1 revive)

Dust: r2 NTW. Keep the incinerates up, she’ll never go unblockable. Make sure not to hit her when you’ve maxed the incinerates too much, just let her tick down and repeat. Very long fight but not hard (solo)

Thanos: r1 BrB. He works amazing for this fight, just don’t get smacked while charging the heavy. Sp2 and keep the grit up and spam sp1. A r3 should solo this pretty easily I think (4 revives)

Total: 15 revives. Thanos was way easier with BrB than with Dani. Had fun with this one, I think the only major slog was Dust and Arcade was annoying, other than that most fights were pretty fast




Quest 3

Pulled Juggs right before from the I did this quest so I didn’t have to use Hulk or OG spidey (both can solo)

Gorr: r3 Juggs. Spammed sp3 with max MD and just heavied to remove the regens (solo)

Dazzler: r3 Zola. Just played risky and heavied a bunch, sp3 heals you a ton and you can spam it (solo)

LDS: r2 Titania. Knull is the best option here but I didn’t have him so I just used her. Very safe fight but it took like 14 mins (solo)

Enchantress: r3 Photon. Finally understood her sp1 dex on the last revive, just have to dash out of the 3rd hit early to dex the 4th (2 revives)

Thor Rags: r3 Starky. Baited heavies, used specials, very fast fight (solo)

Arcade: r2 Guilly 2099. Super simple with her, you can drain his power and just play as normal. She hits super hard after 100 hits (solo)

Leader: r3 Red Skull. Messed up here and used too many light attacks but he’s so great for this fight. You gain a ton of power and can constantly drain his + spam sp2 and 3 (1 revive)

Bullseye: r1 Gentle. Didn’t wanna rank him up so just used him at r1 and he did good. Nothing special here, played it safe and then just went ham (1 revive)

Torch: r1 SIM. He’s easily the best option for this fight, r1 did it in 5 mins. You start to hit insane numbers , just make sure to spam sp1 to stay debuff immune as well (solo)

Serpent: r2 Kushala. Took two sp1’s to the face but it’s just a straightforward Kushala fight (2 revives)

Spiral: r3 Okoye. Just watch for the falter or you’re in trouble. DOT ticks her down (1 revive)

Dust: r3 Shathra. She deals with her well but you have no way to play around sand. I kept throwing sp1’s into her block the first time around. Glad also works well here (2 revives)

Thanos: r3 Chavez. She hits like a truck but it’s still easy to mess up to RC + it’s a longer fight (3 revives)

Total: 12 revives. Imo this one was the easiest, I honestly thought quest 1 was the hardest especially because of Thanos




Personally love content like this. I know pretty well how people here feel about it but I like getting to use champs like this. Highlights for me are SIM and Vox soloing Torch and Arcade respectively at r1 . I also saw some people saying people doing this content wouldn’t even need the rewards but they’re still gonna be great for BGs for me

The rewards are kinda eh overall though, if they were gonna buff em and give us comp I wouldn’t be upset. I never grind units for 4th of July anyway so I figured I might as well just do this and empty the stash. Personally thought there should’ve been a 2-3 generic gem and you shouldn’t have to choose between the nexus and one of the defenders. Should’ve been given both + a deathless piece choice as well for people who needed it

Rewards: New Knull (finally), New Juggs, first time awakening on Zola and Okoye, and a mutant AG

Yes this is a lot of yap
