WOAH— Gamechanging Pull, New Rank Up Question

MasterpuffMasterpuff Posts: 6,466 ★★★★★
edited December 2020 in Strategy and Tips


I thought i was getting Agent Venom sig 40... But i got Namor.

Should I r3? Virtually All content is done, prestige is a motivator, I only have 31 sigs right now, but Im happy to give him all my sigs.

These are my current r3s:

(Aegon is sig 179, max im willing to take him is 180 to avoid a max sig 6* depression pull.)

These are my mutant 6*s:


Im taking him to r2 regardless, so any tips would be awesome!

(Also current prestige is 11,518, so Namor would increase it.)

    No go apoc IMO

    So my reluctance there is that if im bringing him, Im most likely using a horsemen not Apoc. So having him r3 won’t do a ton. That said I might do it since he is fun.

    Pretty much the reason im asking right there. However, I have a 4/55 sig 120 Havok 5*, should i r5 him instead?

    I'd take up Apocalypse instead, he may not help with Prestige but he'll be more useful in future content. Once you can get Namor to a higher sig you might be able to take him up too.

    Apocalypse is a much more "game changing" champ that Namor would ever dream to be, specially because you dont have the sigs to x200 him. Apocalypse has so much more utility and will make your other mutants much more powerful. Go Apoc.

    I forgot to mention I run suicides. Which means constant healing with namor and no special spam with Apoc. I have to test both of them some more.

    In my opinion, his benefit is that he is a lot of fun, and a good champ to use for a lot of fights.
    If you awaken him, having a horseman on the team actually benefits him because it allows him to use the rejuvenation chamber for a decent health gain, so you get benefits from not using him a lot on the quest. Not to mention his nearly permanent concussion, weakness, poison, and degeneration if you can weave in heavies or throw an sp3. He also has some great energy (maybe direct, not sure) damage on his specials.
    Plus, you have the best horseman, the god of the abyss, Cable.
    I would take him up without question.

    That Cable, though...

    @KDSuperFlash10 any thoughts?

    Apoc seems to be the clear better option. Ill need to test them both some more. Maybe wait a while.

    The dupe isn’t really needed, but more to counter suicides with healing when you are using a horseman. I think he will have so much more value than Namor in future content, with the horseman ability and utility.

    I see... He is a pretty amazing champ. I used him for a decent amount in act 7. The reflection ability on Namor is mainly what is holding ne back. And that prestige😍

    Yeah, but Apoc is usable immediately where Namor’s main use could take months to get, maybe even long enough to get a second mutant t5cc.

    Don’t hate me, but I never understood the prestige aspect of the game. I know it benefits the alliance, but why is sacrificing enjoyment or utility for a couple hundred points so important? (Just curious, as I have never found a real answer to it)

    Apocalypse doesn't even know who Namor is

    Apocalypse is obviously the best option, but Puff wants prestige so Namor is the smart decision unless he gets Apocalypse awakened

    Rank 3 the 6* havok, my dude.

    Apocalypse can fulfill his horseman imbuing duties at any rank, plus he kills himself with recoil at play.

    Hes low sig, not gonna benefit you in any current content besides AQ, which you do not currently need, Id go with Apoc.

    i agree... namor is too high level for apocalypse for him to know

    As someone with a 6* R3 Apocalypse, I'd say go him. He is not only amazing, but so fun to play too.

    MasterpuffMasterpuff Posts: 6,466 ★★★★★
    I think ill be waiting. I dont want to take Apoc up unduped because honestly i cant use him. He kills himself too quickly with recoil, plus i would use horsemen way more than him. Namor makes sense given his low sig, and I am not a huge havok fan, but he is amazing. Gonna take some serious thought.

    Even if you had the sigs , Namor is just too niche of a champion to blow something thats still so valuable of a resource in the game. Besides, you’re likely to dupe that Omega before then, which is 1000000* more worthy of sig stones, and if not it’d still be better to invest them in someone else like Beardo

    Many say that, but i find the ability very valuable. Especially with suicides— free healing. Of course Omega will be better. But that could take months. Or more— and thats just a dupe. Id need to pull, and awaken Beardo. Which is very unlikely. Plus Omega is okay at r5, of course i would LOVE a r3, but with the champs people are mentioning, Namor, Havok, and Apoc are not r5s yet.

    The question isnt really about the sigs, im giving him class sigs either way, but mostly just a rank up inquiry that seems to be pointing to wait for now.

    I'd honestly say r3 cable since you have Apocalypse. More valuable than a r3 unduped Apoc and a low sig Namor. (Not to mention he'd be key for his synergy with Apocalypse)
