Treasure Island "Random Mutant" champs are not so Random

I keep retrying Legendary quests and the same Mutant champs appear, Storm Pyramid X as the random mutant in the Path, and Emma frost as the Boss. Which results me into failing the path, and missing out on 15k 5* shards

    There’s no energy cost, so you are in a rare situation of being able to figure those champs out without losing anything.

    However, I suspect you can wait to get another entry, chose a different difficulty, and reset everything by beating it. I assume that works.

    Nope, beating a different difficulty only re-rolls the boss for THAT difficulty. So, yes, you will have to beat Emma, and then hope re-roll results in different boss next time on that difficulty.

    But as to other mentioned point, you don’t actually need a key to do a run that you only want to face boss. Going straight center gets you to a hard boss with full health (just no rewards other than hopefully changing the boss on that difficulty for next time).

    And PI of Boss and Hidden Mutant nodes can tell you who they will be, see good thread below...

    I did the legendary difficulty twice in a row, for two different paths, and got red magneto both times for the boss. So, yes, there is still some "bugginess" to the treasure island quest.

    I finally beat emma, with only using 1 revive and a health potion, then got cable and archangel, then I went head on with cable and beat him again, and now I got iceman... RIP my chance of getting 15k 5* shards. Because I'm almost uncollected with 2 5* and 3 r4 4*. Guess Legendary difficulty is not so "casual friendly"

    You are not uncollected and complaining about the hardest difficulty? Good on you for having a crack but if you can't beat it suck it up.
