AQ Map 4 Ronin Counters

GrimXYZ

I am having a really bad time with the new Map 4 miniboss Ronin, and I am wondering if anyone has a good counter (no, I don't have Omega Red). I can't fate seal or nullify because his buffs are passive, and triggering bleeds through block meant I have to use bleed immune. My r5 5* champs have died from one combo resulting from missed parries (40% ability reduction), and I have died without getting hit because of bleeding through parries and blocks.

I am thinking about using my r5 sentinel...crit resistance and bleed immunity. Anything else?

Use Emma Frost. She works great against him.

No emma frost at the moment...

Not to be that person, but how isn't your r5s cutting it? I can solo him with my 4/55s. I'm curious.
Anyway. Most champs with true strike/heavy dots should work against him. Voodoo/AA/KM ect. Be mindful of his evade though. I think it's against projectiles or on basic attacks. It's BW lvl evade I think.

My most successful runs so far is with my r5 GR...but I haven't managed to one shot him at all. I am not sure about DOTs though? Doesn't he purify them all?

The evade is annoying but I am not dying because of the evade. I am dying because of block damage, or the one single combo that I take.

He doesn't have 100% purify chance. My 4/55 Dr V stacks many venoms on him, even if he shrugs em off. Just need a debuff heavy champ for slightly easier time. Champs with high block prof could work too like CAIW or Dr D.

What rank 5 5* are u trying to use against him? I would have thought most would be able to one shot him on map 4 unless your alliance prestige is really high.

GrimXYZ

why is everyone talking about all the champs that I don't have...with 96 5* you think I would have one of these...The node gives extra crit damage and also changes his stance all the time to give him more passive crit rating boost.

For the record, I one shot every other miniboss in Map 4 until this point, often without losing any health.

I will try my r5 AA or sentinel.

I'd say do sentinel for r5. Should be able to solo Ronin.

Old man Logan smokes that dude! I pretty much consistently one shot him, sometimes losing like 30% health only which I can get back in one subsequent fight! Just have to be wary of his evade tho!
BTW it's a 4* rank 5 oml.

I have used Iceman with pretty good success.

Also, before you judge the OP, he is no joke as the new mini. I haven't fought him much and he wrecked me the 1st time. Very unfamiliar with his motions.

Been using Corvus with Proxima synergy. Gets me 2 missions plus true strike so dont have to worry about evades after I get that mission.

I am still dying lots against him. I use mostly my r5 colossus but somehow he can get knocked back when parrying? I have no idea how or when it happens, but when it does I die when I try to land heavy from far away. One combo and I die from full health.
