    I don't run suicides, but I guess I'll have to put them back on. I'm trying Claire today with explosive personality global.

    Oh, yes. I totally forgot that if u don't time it right when evading Strange's s1, the screen scrolls. Such an intentional POS placement.

    That one fight degenned me to 30%. Love the RNG on Claire's heal.....

    Just settled my lane for Map 6.

    Legion is my alt. He took middle Tier 1 (Thorns then to MK), then Meph (backup recovery) that all or nothing path in Tier 2, and Path 9 (power gain) in Tier 3.






    Main account took leftmost path for Tier 1, Adaptive Path for Tier 2, Starburst path for Tier 3.







    Starting prestige for alliance is 10,271.

    @Gregdagr8, you asked for screenshots.

    We're 100% every day, but this is not about learning curve. This is about BS nodes that sap your health that r basically unavoidable.

    It's also about needing the newest champs instead of being able to use people like Blade or Magik anymore....

    Do you use any of those champs for AW attack or defense? Curious what your backup team would be.
    Nope. Don't use them for attack or defense for AW. Even if I do, there are always alternatives.

    I could swap CG for Gulk since I'm taking Starburst. Venom could run Adaptive. Thing or Ghost for Doom boss. Got quite a few choices.

    @xNig nice work! Not itemless but pretty darn close. And you are still using Corvus lol! Our prestige is 10,471 so a bit higher but we are having more item burn than you are. Did you re-do all paths based on which champs each player had? Or did you just say "take your normal map 6 paths and deal with the changes". We did the latter. Many people complaining. And if there are 3 iterations of map 6 like there are in Map 7, that's just too much work to do for officers/leaders. I just don't understand why Kabam didn't give this week for free like they did in other seasons. Especially with what's going on in the world right now.

    I'm hoping that there aren't 3 variations. Will be such a pain to plan.

    Doesn't say 2. It just says Variations. That can mean new champs like how we just had this week, or it can be like Map 7 where they have 3 sets of champs which keep switching. It literally can mean n number of variations.

    Was about to take a break. This was the final nail in the coffin. Always thought AQ map 6 was pretty much a break from aw. A potion here and there. No biggie. Kabam thank you for making up my mind and saving me money.

    This new map 6 is definitely different and has some challenging nodes/matchups. It’s the first week so I’ll hold my judgement until there are a few more runs thru it to identify those key matchups that will just make your path as easy as it may have been prior (hopefully for all paths).

    My teammate suggested this solution after a few pesky days of IW mini killing off some of us. That invisibility paired with Tenacity can be a bit of a bugger at times!

    Glory is meant to be for us to help out, all i buy in revives and heals, but since the change in map 6 in aq I'm low on everything, switch is unfair if u don't have the right champ section 2 manthing node 68 and afew more .needs sorting out by kabam.

    Yeah I use Corvus to cheese starburst since I wanted to bring SG to help out with Doom. Otherwise I would have brought Gulk.

    Anyway, I just told the guys to handle the changes themselves without doing any amendments to pathings. So far no issues but if anyone raises up a problem, we will make changes if we can make it more efficient (like in tier 2, one of the guys is running suicides so the void is a bad matchup, hence I’ll swap paths with him since I don’t run suicides).

    At our current level, they should have more than enough champs and knowledge to clear their paths.

    Claire is good for this map. I added her to my degen lane team, she's helping me a lot.
