    Out of 29 available Mystic champions in the game, there are 23 champions who don't have nullify or have a way to control their nullify ability. #justsaying

    This doesn't seem right; let's list them out:

    Mystic champs with some form of Nullify mechanic (20):
    Claire Voyant, Diablo, Doom, Strange, Voodoo, Dormammu, Ghost Rider, Iron Fist, Immortal Iron Fist, Longshot, Magik, Man-Thing, Mojo, Morningstar, Sasquatch, Scarlet Witch, Sorcerer Supreme, Symbiote Supreme, Hood, Jane Foster

    Mystic champs with a guaranteed (100%) Nullify mechanic (11):
    Claire Voyant, Doom, Dormammu, Iron Fist, Immortal Iron Fist, Longshot, Magik, Man-Thing, Mojo, Morningstar, Symbiote Supreme

    Mystic champs with some form of Buff Steal (2):
    Ebony Maw, Loki

    Mystic champs with neither Nullify nor Buff Steal (7):
    Dragon Man, Guillotine, Juggernaut, Mephisto, Mordo, Tigra, Unstoppable Colossus
    Tigra has a fate seal type nullify, same with mephisto. Jugs has staggers off heavy attacks as well.

    My only concern, and I’m not sure if this has been mentioned already, but Variant seemed like the bridge between Act 5 and Act 6 since Act 6 requires 5 and 6* characters.

    However, if Variant is going to increase in difficulty, does that mean it’s going to act as a bridge between Act 6 and Act 7? I hope not. I understand the need to give end game players a challenge but I hope it’s not at a cost for everyone else who enjoys the variants.

    Can you please split the year rank up gems in our inventory and when we want to rank up a champion? I have some 2015 and 2015/2016 Mutant and Cosmic rank up gems but if I want to rank up a 2015 champ I am not sure if it will use the 2015 rank up gem or the 2016 rank up gem. I dont want to have to wait for a 2016 champ to rank up before i can rank up a 2015 champ. This will be more of an issue now because these rank up gems also include 2017 champs

    These gems will be generic now so this will not be an issue anymore
    I'm not sure about this. You cant use the gems right out of the inventory, but in the champ avatar just one gem can be shown and be used.

    Therefore, I really see a problem with the gems and that you cannot use any gem on any (suitable) champ at any given time, but have to rank up champs you perhaps even wouldnt want to rank up, and moreover in such an order that you hopefully dont waste anything ...

    Or at what point am i thinking wrong?

    I think v2-4 are going to be the bridge now and people will have to progress if they want to do other variants like 1 later on, and then 5 and beyond. obviously, not great for those who are around that act five completion to cav level, but I think it will incentivize progression, especially if it's a fun and fair challenge

    So is there no 3-4 gem for completion?

    I guess the rank 5 gem is now for completion and the 3 t5b and 25% T5cc for 100%. So it's a lot better
    Oh okay, that makes sense. It is a lot better, but I can’t say I’m not bummed about losing out on the 3-4 gem, I was hoping to take Red Guardian up to r4 with one.

    Something I’m unsure about, can we only bring mystics to the mystic chapter spiders to the spidey chapter etc or can we use all 3 groups in every quest but only 1 group gets the buff? Also can we bring all of spider verse in or just spider verse heroes?

    You can use all three groups anywhere but only 1 group gets the buff.
    And it's spider verse heroes

    I hope it has only 2 quests for chapter like V3 and V4, unlike V1 and V2.

    It is 2 per Chapter. Back Issues 1 and 2 were copies of our first ever Event Quests, and before switching to the format you guys know now, there were 3 per Chapter.
    Since you’re here and talking about chapters. What’s the energy cost?

    I disagree. At some point the variants need to bridge to harder content. With Act 7 set to release this year, now would be that time. There are four other variants to bridge Act 5 to Act 6. We don't need even more. Variants should evolve just like other content. They should not be static to what has previous been released.
    Disagree. Have you seen how often the rewards have been updated for Uncollected EQ? (It hasn’t if you didn’t know). But what has happened? A new difficult has been introduced: Cavalier. There should be a difficult above Variant if there is going to be a bridge between Act 6 and Act 7.

    Also, Abyss & Act 6 are that bridge to Act 7 as you’ll most likely need r3 6*s.

    That is unchanged from the rest. I don't have the whole quest numbers, but it's similar to previous Variants.
    Ummm... sorry to bother you again... but similar to which ones?
    V4 was 1-2-3
    Others were 3-3-3
    I’m assuming the latter due to it being plural I

    Dragon Man, Guillotine, Juggernaut, Mephisto, Mordo, Tigra, Unstoppable Colossus
    There are ways you can play Doom, Dorm, Iron fist, Magik, Man thing, Mojo, and Morningstar without nullifying buffs on the opponent. Just because a champion can nullify doesn't mean they have to do it automatically.

    Loki ebony maw Morningstar magik iron fist iron fist immortal dormamu Jane Foster Sasquatch ghost rider doctor voodoo diablo
    Plus all the ones who can’t nullify in the first place
    Exactly. The only Mystic champions that can nullify without intent are Scarlett witch, Clair, Hood, Symbiote Supreme, Longshot, Dr Stephen Strange, and to some extent Man thing.

    Eq and variants are different. Variants were always meant to be for endgame players. Variants never had multiple layers of difficulty.

    And for your statement of "abyss and act6 being the bridge for act7", by that logic u have labyrinth and act5 as a bridge for act6.
    Not true because Labyrinth doesn’t give you the resources for r5 5*s, also you can get a r5 5* without completing Act 5. But nice try though

    When the kabam increases the difficulty and the rewards, in fact it only increases the difficulty, because I don't feel rewarded when I open a 6 * crystal and leave a miles morales

    You know where miles might be useful? Variant 5.

    But I feel your pain. Kabam loves dropping 5* and 6* miles on my account.
  • QfuryQfury Member Posts: 1,860 ★★★★★
    Looking forward to this, have a feeling its going to be a challenge. Hopefully not to the point I pull my hair out, I don't think I could pull off the BG look.

    Also good job on the buffed rewards kabam.

    Why can’t we use Sinister Six champions?? They’re supposed to be Spider-Verse champions!
  • KDSuperFlash10KDSuperFlash10 Member Posts: 5,869 ★★★★★
    Can you give us a layout of what’s gonna be in the completion rewards and what’s gonna be in the exploration rewards?
  • SpideyFunkoSpideyFunko Member Posts: 21,936 ★★★★★

    .

    This time, we’re leaning heavily towards the lore of the Chapter, and restricting access to only #Spider-Verse Heroes, #Symbiote, and Mystic Champions!

    this is why @KDSuperFlash10
    Sinister Six aren’t heroes

    Has Kabam posted the chapter and act completion rewards, without exploration?
