necropolis - aegon v kate?

so the team im planning for the Titania path is,
Aegon as a r4 sig 200
Kate as a r4 sig 100
America Chavez as a r2 7* unduped
Juggernaut as a r4 sig 40 for the GM

for the last spot, im likely bringing Proxima, but i’ve heard Shuri, Sigil Witch, and Doom have been helpful too. but has anyone done it with Aegon and Kate/Shuri? or is it more better to focus on one of them?

I used all 3 and it worked out well. My team was
r4 aegon
r5 ascended kate
unranked 6* chavez
shuri r2
juggs r4

Used Kate the most, but aegon did Guardian and GM (basically a backup if I needed it too). Shuri was used for Wiccan, DM, and cap Britain. So if you wanna save on revives it might be a good idea.

I just did my completion, no Shuri, I brought Aegon (6r4) and Kate (6r5 ascended). On the team were 6r5 Doom, 6r4 America Chavez, and 6r4 Wiccan

Kate did 70% of the heavy lifting. She took Titania, Aarkus, and Omega Sentinel with relative ease.

Doom for Air walker.

Kate again for Captain Britain and Wiccan. (You want max despair mastery if you use Kate on wiccan)

I used Psycho-man to ramp up Aegon. It took a while, but was worth it later.

Aegon did Guardian.

Used Kate again for Valkyrie.

Aegon for Red Guardian.

Kate for Sam Wilson.

Aegon for Cap.

Kate for Nova.

Aegon put in most of the work on grandmaster. Phase 3 I have up on wounding him and just mollywhopped him with heavy-furies and like 12 revives. Wiccan sealed the deal.

Overall I think Aegon is more of a brute-force revive pit solution, but Kate worked better, safer, and faster overall. I think I spent a third of my revives just ramping up Aegon.

Funny enough I pulled 7* Shuri and 7* Chavez from my class crystals (hooray) then a SKILL 2-3 gem (boo).

Wish you luck!!

I ran Aegon/Shuri/Prox/Juggy/Heimdall. Aegon did most, but Shuri worked(for me) on Betsy, Wiccan(only solo), & for a good portion of Psycho & Dragon men

For the titania path, is Shuri still better than Kate for wiccan? R2 shuri vs R6 Kate

SaltE_Wenis69

yeah cuz Wiccans regen on sp1 is kinda crazy, and Shuri with despair does a nice job shutting it down. Fight is really easy with her.

Zuro

Kate also destroys him plus faster but youll need to stack 3 tranquilize and fragility for despair. Managed to solo him with Kate

How have people been doing with r4 Kate in Necro?
I keep hearing that r4 Aegon works, with only a slight increase in revives. Is Kate the same, or will the rank change a lot

Zuro

R4 Kate can still work just fine although fights will be a bit longer, boosts will help with that though

YodaKaj

Would an ascended 5*R5 Aegon work well compared to a 6*R4 ?

Who did you use for Aarkus and OS?
I have a similar team but am contemplating replacing aegon with Abs man

Zuro

Kate can do both OS and Aarkus im pretty sure. Youll have to try and keep tranquilize up for Aarkus though. Although ngl i suggest just taking out Aegon and going with absman because youll find yourself using kate way more than Aegon since she needs WAY less revives imo

Zuro

Ehhh not really. The challenger rating of a 5 star is pretty low so you'll end up being rooted for lots of specials, which in turn will kill you with block damage. Unless youre super stacked on revives i wouldnt recommend

Jimajohn

Who are the best options for fighting the wiccan? (I only have 1/3 despair)

Zuro

Shuri or void

Moneymike128

Tranquilize doesn't really stick on Aarkus because of his tenacity. Kate can still do it, once you get him to the corner just spam sp1 and heavies. And dash back to avoid armor break/coldsnap damage. The pseudo-taunt on Kate keeps him spamming specials, it makes it a pretty easy fight once you get the rhythm

Zuro

Yeah thats better advice since i used abs man I was just going off others experience

Polygon

But shuri’s a lot safer/easier for Wiccan? Forgot how far back his specials push you if you were trying to corner him with Kait. My despair is 3/3

Zuro

Shuri is definetly safer and easier, although a great kate player can get him down pretty safely and in like half the time. You can fully avoid wiccans sp1 by swiping back to the end kf the screen, then charge in for a parry to refresh debuffs easily. In the end it just comes down to who you prefer

Polygon

Thanks. Btw thoughts on putting 1 point in resonate for Kate/Chavez (more so kate)? You could take less block damage allowing you to block the first half of specials more (before dexing for an easy heavy counter) or just taking less block damage during rooted phase?

Zuro

I personally didnt need it but it would probably help, plus its an extra debuff for despair mastery. If you play well enough you'll probably have enough health to take a bunch of specials in the block anyways. If you want to play a bit risky, during the early parts of the fight you can also purposefully get a neutralize debuff to heal with willpower.

Heimdal. Make room for Heimdal

YodaKaj

Good to know. THanks

SaltE_Wenis69

Oh mb, aegon did arkus too, but kate did OS

Nemesis_17

In theory you would think a 5* would be terrible but I know of a few people who did completion with an ascended 5* and said he was just fine. The only revive count I heard from one of them was 60 in total which is really good for a 5*. But, to be safe I’d farm up 80+ just to have ease of mind.

Ironman3000

Bringing Kate and Aegon is a waste.

Logan00

Which one is the best team? Rank 4 Aegon, rank 1 próxima and Heimdall , wiccan 7* and rank 1 shuri? I also have a duped rank 1 Wong and rank 4 duped juggs

SaltE_Wenis69

its just like bringing another champ for a few specific fights tf😭

YodaKaj

Heres a question: Which champs are the worst for Necro?
