Aegon vs Hercules in Abyss

I have a question for people who have done Abyss paths with both Aegon and Hercules.
I am planning on doing exploration soon (have only done path 1)
I already have a Herc rank 4 sig 180. And a Aegon rank 3 sig 200.
I also have the other horsemen (Nick as a 5*) and other original primary counters like Corvus, She-hulk, Void.

I have the resources to rank 4 aegon if that is the tie breaker.

Comparison between equal ranks would be most appreciated.

Aegon has a peace of mind gameplay. Lots of crit, unvlockbale , super high dmaage with the getting hit furies and so on. Aar to boot

Herc isn’t too good for abyss, aegon on the other hand is made for abyss . But i don’t think you need to take him to r4.

I did 3 paths in abyss with Herc as my main damage dealer. All less than 80 revives. Aegon maybe made for abyss but herc is no slouch.

For long contents Like abyss Aegon is the best champion in the game. In summary once you can achieve 999 combo on Aegon he is just the best champ no cap.

I certainly wouldnt take anyone to r4 only for abyss, it only awards r3 resources, you'd lose far more than you gain

I never called herc a slouch😂 i said he isn’t too good for abyss. abyss is mostly about dealing damage and bringing the defender down, you can use as many items as you want but that is not efficient. Champs like aegon and stryfe are extremely efficient in abyss whereas herc is effective but not efficient.

And I disagree that "he isn't too good" for abyss. An R4 herc can do numerous fights in abyss in 1 or 2 revives, with no need to heal up, including ones you wouldn't think of like Masacre. Bring capIW and he slaughters the tech fights and killmongers. And I found him easier to use on the grandmaster than stryfe was on my mutant run. Is Aegon at r4 better than herc at r4 for abyss, most likely. Is aegon at r3 better than herc at r4, much less sure. I found ramping aegon up during my testing to be much more stressful, so for myself alone I had a much easier time of it ramping herc.

And none of this compares the complete catastrophe that was my carina challengers run. Now that one sucked.

@horrendous_too i totally agree with all the points you mentioned! Herc is one of the best champs in the game and his ease of use and damage is amazing and he shines in almost all the contents but i stand by my statement that he isn’t the best choice for abyss, if i have to choose between a r3 aegon and r4 herc, i’d go with aegon because it normally takes 2-3 revives to ramp him up and after that there is no stopping the force he is for the content.

And yeah the carina challengers one sucks alot, but if you have shang chi he can solo most fights for you, he’s not too good for the collector but otherwise a banger for most of the fights
