And keep in mind, last year, Dark Phoenix cost around 500 dollars. So, you could get around 7 copies of Dark Phoenix with 3600 if my math is correct

9.2.6 LOTAN BOSS IS BUGGED

Went in to do exploration did the whole fight and phases all fine. In the final phase you have to gain an untouchable and dash into her final hit of sp attack to reduce her charges. When you get untouchable from dexing the second to last hit, then you go in you still get hit despite the untouchable being on the screen. Tried multiple times with all the champs on my team and no change. I wasted revives and potions on it because I thought I was doing something wrong but no. I went on MCOC NOOBs LOTAN fight guide and others have said the same today

Re: Is this intentional? Jabari's precision got gutted with the patch

I just watched DLL's video on her changes. What he said is that her old precision put her at 80% crit chance while in the Hunt, and they lowered that to a 25% chance. I don't know exactly how the conversion from "Xnumber crit rating" to "%number crit rating" looks like, but since 140 crit rating leads to a 3.1% increase in crit chance (as per her stat focus), I don't find it too hard to believe that 880 crit rating equals a 25% chance. It doesn't scale perfectly linearly, but it's close enough that I wouldn't be surprised if the current numbers are indeed correct and not some kind of bug.

However, I would assume that the scaling goes bananas sometime after this, because while around 900 extra crit rating translates to 25% increased crit chance, apparently you need 10K to get up to 80%. I've heard that crit rating suffers from diminishing returns, but wowza, that's a crazy dip in potency-per-point.

But I don't think that the potency nerf is quite as sever as it looks. I mean, going down from 80% to 25% is still a lot of percentages lost - don't get me wrong - but just from looking at how much crit rating was lost, you'd be forgiven for thinking that a 90% cut would have left her with maybe 8% increased crit chance while in the Hunt, which would have been rather pointless.

Most importantly, though, is that I absolutely believe Kabam when they say that the buff will still lead to a much higher damage output from her, even with the reduction to the crit chance while in the Hunt. I haven't tested her out extensively (I have her at r4 sig 150 currently), but on paper I love all of the changes they've made to her. While the player in me certainly wouldn't have minded if she kept crit'ing like crazy while in the Hunt, I still think she'll do great.
