Kardinal96

Hey guys hope this finds u all in the best of your help. I am stuck at 5.2.5 recently...that bane is just killing me. I am sharing the top champion list I have.. could you guys help me with a good team for becoming uncollected...anytypes of suggestions and advice would be so helpful

General advice: keep practicing with moon knight first. Get a hang of the bane timer. Use champions with high damage output and long special animations.
Based on your roster: DOOM, warlock, CGR, nick, dragonman are your MVPs. Wouldn't recommend using/building up Ægon. You can take up domino for the raw damage output. Once you get a good run without any knockouts, only then use any potions. Don't waste potions of you are koed after 2-3 fights. Repeat the quest and start over. All the best for the run!

Your first 5 should be good, unless u want to ramp up aegon along the way.

Nick will be good for DDHK boss. Get him unblockable while in real phase and you can just dex sp1 and never take a hit, even a blocked one.

Should I take Dragon man to r4 first as he is currently at r3? Would that be of any help?

Do I need to awaken him?

I'd rather wait for a better champ. Don't get me wrong, he's a solid champ. But there are many more to come in the future. Your top 5 are solid. You can switch dragoman with void if you'd like to give it a try. And yeah... Unawakened nick is decent but won't be of much help. So you can count him out for now.

Thank you all for your valuable advises

I agree with what @ADwar616 said about practicing. Act 5 introduces a lot of new and tricky nodes, and you need to learn how to play them. Learning that will not only help you in this quest but in the game in general. You'll see them pop up pretty regularly going forward, so it's well worth slowing down a bit and learning how to counter them.

The good thing about Bane is that it's a strictly skill-based node that doesn't require a particular counter from your roster. You mostly just have to time things right.

With that being said, you have some champs who can be of more help than others. Some of your champs can go unblockable and that allows you to give yourself openings to transfer Bane. Doom and Cosmic Ghost Rider are amazing champions in their own right and both have unblockable SP1s, even if those aren't necessarily their best special attacks. But it can be a nice safety net if things go wrong.

Similarly, Nick Fury can go fully unblockable but it'll be really difficult to reach that mode unless he's awakening.

Dragon Man can also go unblockable but I don't have him so I don't know his mechanics or how easy access he has to it.

I still think you should learn how to fight Bane and not rely too much on unblockable attacks, but yeah, it can be a cheese option at times. Especially Doom's since it steals power as well so you don't have to worry about pushing an opponent to max power.

Thank you so much for all your valuable suggestions guys. Just cleared 5.2.5.
Was thinking if I should put up glass canon for the last one(5.2.6)...any ideas?
