(For Cavalier Players) What is the biggest hurdle to you progressing to Thronebreaker?

BowTieJohn

Just curious within the community those who are cavalier, what is the reason you have not progressed to Thronebreaker

You could’ve just created a thread asking for advice on how to handle the Lifecycle node..

I think roster can be a legitimate roadblock. Like if you somehow haven’t pulled a single bleed champ good luck getting pass Medusa. I know that’s after cav but it was the first thing that came to mind

For me it was medusa i was roadblocked for months

It can definitely be roster. When I went thru it I was fortunate to pull Heimdall right as I approached the Sinister boss.

This is mostly it.

As I went through act 5 and then jumped into act 6, I could feel my skill level go up as I tried fights over and over again.

I was trying not to lose too much health in the first few fights and it upped my skill level.

I have to agree with the community too, GM fight is a problem, no matter the skill level. For first time, it's painful, it's so painful that I've completed act 7 and 8 but I'm still terrorized by that GM fight.

For me I had 2 roadblocks. That Black Bolt and then Medusa fight was horrendous. Then it was pretty breezy until I got to the GM. It was just a lot of things that you can’t experience anywhere else in the game. Which is both great and problematic. My first attempt I was insistent that I was never going to complete it, I did not want to commit. Eventually I got over it with practice and got it done. But my progression has stopped again as I don’t share the opinion that many do that act 7 is fun.

Reality is the game takes practice, patience, skill, motivation and some specific counters in act 6 and beyond. You either have them or you don’t.

This was my issue. I have 2 Paragon accounts and both got roadblocked at the 6.2.2 Mr Sinister boss because I had no counter.

It wasn't too long on my main and I got CCM but my alt account didn't have any options for months until I pulled the second half of the Heimdall synergy.

I think lifecycle comes as a pretty shocking node, that catches you off-guard. It really demotivated me to play story content. However, the senior players over here gave some real good advices, with lifecycle, and it made someone as demotivated as me, finish 6.2.1 in a single run with only 1 revive(which was also due to a silly mistake). After crossing that, i kind of got eased into the content. I dont play it out of boredom, but I'm definitely not worried to attempt it

For me it was lazyness 😁

Lifecycle (Act 6.2.1)

I should have specified more that the Dormammu mini boss having lifecycle has given me the most trouble.
