What about Red Guardian?

I got a 6* Red Guardian so far now for first time? Is he usable? Is my pull ........?

He has a really nice buff coming soon. Might be with the February update next week, can't remember when it is slated for.

FrostGiantLord

Right now he needs high sig to be viable, but with his buff coming soon, that may soon not be the case

I thought he was already buffed? Is that not so?

R5 Sig 56 sp2 in assassins range. My heavies were also doing about 40k crits, so 80k damage per heavy that crits in assassins range. Outside of assassins range I was using Mr Fantastic prefights which beefs up his heavies to 46k without assassins.

So is this now, or is there another buff coming in February?

His buff was always February

@Pikolu will his sig ability be important though? I just used my last science gem on Photon I really don't wanna regret it lol

What am I thinking of then?
I swear I saw an upgrade, it was too strong and they tuned it down?

You're thinking of the beta. His changes happened during the beta phase. He was ridiculously OP before and now he is just really good. I quite enjoy him for long content, and he will be a monster in BGs.

In BGs, probably since you will likely do a sp1 then sp2 to close the fight. In long-form content, not really. The only benefit of the sig in long content is the first sp2 of the 100 you'll do, and the crit rating during your heavy attacks.

So what’s happening in February?

Magrailothos

It's too soon to say.

@smdam38 All we know is that Red Guardian is having a minor buff.

Some of the folk posting (like @Pikolu ) took part in the beta test for him; so have got some idea of what's coming.

However, no-one knows exactly how Kabam will have decided to adjust his design based on the results of the beta. Pikolu is wise enough not to share exact details, because he knows that they could have changed.

There is likely to be an announcement of the changes some time in the next week, as part of the Update notes - keep your eyes open here: https://playcontestofchampions.com/news/category/

Initially the buff was great as what was heard for beta reports but then they nerfed the buff. So better wait for final outcome once the buff is released.

smdam38

My bad then. Thought it was actually already done.
I can’t science for a bit any way.
