Honestly i wasn't going to post on this one because I'm so pissed about it... saved up items for a month in a half and made it thru 6.2.1 just fine...6.2.2 boss however I don't see any options...i have a 6* hiemdell no Angela or hela no ghost have corvus but he won't work no gr for my blade no nebula have she hulk but I'm hearing that her passives count against the node, no hype, no medusa, no new cap marvel, have quake at rank 2 but I'm hearing she still might not work not sure though first hand... The issue here for people that have actually got to this point has nothing to do with Skill... absolutely everything to do with RNG crystal luck/ How much can you spend to get the champs period! I will not respond to anyone, but I at least wanted to make my voice heard. I really hope kabam does something about this fight... will see though.
Quake works well. See KT1 video. Lucky you.
I don’t have her as 5*.
Will do...i don't have the resources to get her past rank 3 however but I'll check into it thx for your positive feedback
The worst part of the map is the 3% incinerate you get from crits. You need to bring 3 champs just to take the boss so you can only bring 2 other champs for the lanes. Add the gates and it's pretty awful. Just tried the skill path and Blade procked the incinerate in the first combo. Might have to bring low level champs just to get around that node.
There's quite a few incinerate immune champs in the game now. Just one should suffice to clear paths and you can bring 4 champs for the mister sinister
Hopefully the interaction between sinister and caustic gets fixed soon so the people that don't have heimdall and angela/hela can still get pass... it will take alot of time for them but it's still doable
Yeah. That interaction was unexpected.
Buffed up (and caustic) doesn't need to be a reduction of 90% or 100%. 50% would make it a lot more playable.
You talk about having more solutions with caustic temper and i argue you've not only narrowed it down you've limited it to needing a combo of 3 specific champs while voodoo doesn't need synergy.
Then the thread titles will just become “Need Voodoo highly ranked as the sole option to take Sinister”.
Anyway, just theorycrafting.
Off-hand I can think of a few counters for Caustic instead of Buffed Up.
1. OG Hulk 2. Hyperion 3. Medusa 4. Black Bolt (Needs duped) 5. Ronan 6. Ultron Classic 7. Gulk/Quake/Rulk/CptIW/Nebula/Thing and many others + Heimdall + Angela/Hela
The main issue now is Caustic’s interaction with Sinister which is causing Sinister to be regenerating more than he’s being hit for when the attacker is without a fury. It’s an unintended interaction that wasn’t suppose to happen.
What I don’t like about this fight is the rng involved with having one of the few specific counters as a 5* or a 5* heimdall and Angela Like the thanos fight last month was amazing because I feel if you had enough skill there you could use basically any1 and not take any unavoidable damage
Yes. However, amongst the 2 evils, Caustic is the lesser evil and has a wider array of counters as compared to Buffed Up.
Normally I would say yes but on this fight I feel caustic temper is worse
Buffed Up is a lot worse. Nothing I tried work, which is quite saddening. I was reduced to using Civil Warrior and trying to get him down. The main issue with Buffed Up was 3 buffs, and EMP punishes having too many buffs, which by itself is contradictory.
Would voodoo not work quite well because he activates 3 buffs and keeps his power down
Yes. The 2 counters were Voodoo and Quake + Heimdall + Hela/Angela + Magik/Gully. Third is Cull but at that point he wasn’t introduced yet.
So with Buffed Up, there was 1 outright counter and 1 which requires 4 champs to work, which is very much narrower compared to Caustic.
Ye but I have a voodoo
Haha yeah but that's not healthy with respect to what the community has.

Like all end-game content, if you have some specific champs (listed as 1-6 and Heimdall + Angela/Hela in this case), the options open up and the fight becomes more manageable/cheaper because you have a proper counter.
Alternatively, if you do not have a proper counter and want to clear it due to impatience, the fight becomes significantly harder and whilst it's still possible to clear, it becomes exponentially more expensive.
What does ronan provide?
Just saw your reply to this. Idk why it’s late.
Ronan’s Poison immune and has a chance to proc Fury.

Its so low that that you may not proc is for several combos though 😂
To borrow the Heimdall/Angela Synergy idea, the one Champion I haven't seen anybody mention is Vision. He's not only Poison immune, but can keep Sinister powerlocked very easily, so he can never throw his special attacks. Same with Quake (who has been mentioned), because played correctly, he'll never get a special attack off.
Medusa proved to be a good choice, though you'll probably take a few losses there, as with Hyperion.
This is stupid. There are very few champs that can get through this fight. I have 90 total 5* and 6* champs but do not have one of the right ones to get through 6.2.2. So I have the skill and every other piece of content beat in the game but I guess I just have to wait until I pull the right champ. Sooooo much fun having 6.1.1 100% and having nothing to do but wait until I can progress in the game. The Kabam answer is to buy units and cavalier crystals until I get a champ that meets the requirements or that this is permanent content so be happy not progressing for as long as it takes. So stupid

Just finally did it... 8 revives (could have been maybe 6 got hit in the first try so I had less health to tank the shock), 5 40% revives and 3 20% revives, with a 4/55 boosted hyperion (20-10-15)... it wasn't pretty... it wasn't fun... but it got the job done eventually

No you can't. There are 4 gated paths.
So? Do the ungated ones. And if you have such an issue with the gates the don't bother with the exploration. I'm doing this once and not looking back till I've done both variants and LOL because I know I don't have the roster needed to finish this with a reasonable amount of resources.

I've already done completion and 100% everything else. I 100% have the roster to do any reasonable content with a reasonable amount of resources. Exploring 6.2.2 is not reasonable was it stands right now.
Guys, let’s remember that Kabam encourages diversity and they don’t make fights that require only one or two champs. Groot should be just as viable as Corvus for example.

What was your strategy with hype exactly? Might need to go this route as well @xTigerMaster
I did not have fury but tried proxima and nebula. Got 20 stacks with nebula and dropped a s2. Sinister went from 100 to 98%. He appears to be healing based off of 100% damage(pre node reduction) not the 10%(post damage) reduction. My nebula is r4

You need Fury for any real Damage.
@PurpleIsPimpin is correct, Mr. Sinister, regens based on the pre 90% reduction hit. It's definitely a bug and has been acknowledged. You are correct regarding the synergy though, if any damage is to be done with Nebula, you need to have Heimdall and Angela for the fury.

I consider my self close to end game. I have 100% both variants and 100% act 5.
I’m 6 lines from 100% act 6.1. Problem is I don’t spend like these guys do so my roster isn’t crazy deep. I have like 70 5 stars and 9, 6 stars. I don’t own an Angela/hela nor a heimdall in 5/6. So you’re telling me I’m skilled enough to beat 6.2 just don’t have the champs cuz I don’t whale out? That really sucks. I also wouldn’t whale out for a vision. I’m married, have a mortgage and want to have kids and keep my marriage intact. I’ve never threatened to leave the game cuz kabam messes things up, but when I can’t complete something without spending to get the counters I begin to question their strategy. It’s sad I spend a lot of time in the game and have enjoyed it for the last 3.5 years. Caustic temper is whatever, there are counters for it, but when you add sinisters mechanic it becomes a cash grab.
The worst part is since this benefits kabam, they’re taking forever to fix it (just like sentinel punishing you for trying to punish his special 1). If it benefits the player base, game goes down immediately and gets a fix. Has to work both ways guys.
Usually don’t rant, But one of my guys is right he quit the game because it was no longer fun. It was either spend and get all the counters or be stuck in the same place. Good skilled player and very dedicated. When alliances lose guys like that, it’s eye opening and makes you think about why your still play also.
I really could only repeat what was already said here... The game design is getting really pathetic as described above - how dare you to question our skills when there is literally NOTHING other to do in the game with all content done other than 6.2 !?! I thought this content is meant exactly for us- players that completed everything else to have some fun... Now you telling me it's not designed to be even playable on day 1 for everyone, only for those who paid enough? Can you tell me what else should I do not having very specific champs you chose for this particular event? Because I have literally EVERYTHING else 100% now. And I'm supposed to wait and build? And from what? Where do I get resources when I can't go any further in only new content added? I really appreciate any constructive, REAL idea here. Arena it is not You have really met your bottom with this. After 2 months of disastrous game experience full of bugs with no compensation you come up with this. You wanna literally force us to give you our money, yet you don't deserve a penny for this.
