Mutant Rank Up Advice

SpursDave

I apparently messed up posting this over the weekend, so I'm trying again. I recently received 4 4* mutants after only have Colossus for so long. I'm seeking advice on the order to rank them up, how far to take them (3/30, 4/40, or even any worth 5/50?).

Here are my new mutants:

• Rogue
• Gambit
• Storm
• Deadpool (X-Force)

I'm currently working on finishing up Act 4, Chapter 1. Are there any of these that would be beneficial for finishing up Act 4?

Also, I have a 4* Mutant Awakening Gem. Are there any of these I might use it on and not feel sad if I actually ever pull an Arch Angel?

I don't know if it makes much difference as far as synergies go, but here are the rest of my 4* and 5* champs.

Cyclops (Blue Team) 5* 1/25
Drax 5* 1/25

Hyperion 4* Duped 4/40
Groot 4* Duped 4/40
Dr. Voodoo 4* 4/40
Vision (Age of Ultron) 4* 4/40
Spider-man (Miles) 4* Duped 3/30
VenomPool 4* 3/30
Moon Knight 4* 3/30
Hulk 4* 3/30
Gamora 4* 3/30
Punisher 4* 3/30
Winder Soldier 4* 3/30
Falcon 4* 1/10

Thanks in advance!

Rogue for sure, And she's worth a mutant gem as well. Great heals on SP1.
You can awaken AA from the generic you will get after doing 100% Act 4.

With this team, I think you should be able to complete Act 4.
Hyperion, Doctor V, Vision (AoU), Rogue, Hulk (needs to awaken but stun on special one is good).

Along the way, you are going to pull more champs and duplicate them.
You can re-assess again.

Good luck on questing.

Thanks for the advice. I ranked Rogue up to 3/30. So far, so good. When I am able to take another champ to 4/40, would it be better to take hulk or a duped Rogue? Which would make the team that winterthur mentioned stronger? Thanks again

Thanks. That makes a lot of sense. I sure appreciate the advice and explanation that is given on this forum.

As others have said, Rogue. All the way to 5/50

But don't sleep on Gambit. Probably not worth 5/50, but definitely worth 4/40. His ability to chain stuns and ability reduction are a valuable asset to the game.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Chaining his stuns has saved me in a couple of battles. I just wasn't sure if he was worth just going to 3/30 or taking up past that. Will definitely keep him at #2 mutant unless I get one of the top mutant champs (I really like my 3* duped Arch Angel, so hope I can get a 4* or 5* of him)

Many experts above offered excellent advises. Therefore I wouldn't make any extra comments in that respect. However, I would send you a few extra links in addition to the experts' advises, just in case you want to hear more from a few end-game youtubers:-

And in case you may also wonder if you should use your generic awakening for SW, GP, or save it for future Archangel, X23, etc ...

Just wanted to thank everyone for their advice. I am really enjoying using Rogue, and I think that as I get more used to using her specials, I'll go far.
