Winter of Woe: Nebula Strategy Thread [merged]

New boss just dropped, and at least on first glance she looks to be substantially easier to deal with than Abs Man. So I wanted to get the ball rolling on some suggested options based on the challenges we have:

Metal and God: my first thought is Angela. She counters the debuffs and the autoblock extremely well. She was made for this.

Size M and Burst: Silver Surfer. Plenty of buffs with indefinite uptime if you’re keeping his rotation up, and he actually benefits from having shocks placed on him.

Carina’s Challengers: this is the tough one. Mole Man is shock immune, so he’s a strong contender for it. Howard the Duck will have tons of buffs on him to counter the autoblock node. Falcon could theoretically work, as could Shang Chi. I’ll definitely want to talk through this one a bit.

How’re y’all feeling about this one?

The challenges are:
1. Offensive burst and medium
2. God and metal
3. Carina's challengers

Suggestions so far?
Scorpion
Sig 200 Angela or Odin
Sig 200 Ultron

Any others?

This one seems more forgiving. Who do you think will work against this Nebula (and also for objectives).

Also, I have a doubt, "Defeat Nebula with a god AND metal champ" Means we have to defeat her with a champ with both tags or does one of the tags will work?

Nemesis_17

I’ve heard surfer is great for medium and burst

Emilia90

God and metal = Odin. Saw KM get a solo with him

Carina Challengers (speculation): Howard has heal block + enough buffs so he actually seems amazing for it

JT_Supreme

Someone Lmk if shang works he’s 2 objectives and I got an r2

Nemesis_17

Both tags required, Angela seems to be a good option for the god and metal objective

Finalfuryk

I think Thor Rags could be decent for the God and Metal with the severe shock reduction. The node that strikes me as the pain point is that you cannot parry with buffs because that will nullify a buff on you and instantly take off 40% of your health.

double post lol

DarkGuardian

For some reason, my odin started the fight with only 1 buff activated instead of all three

Wait does he work? He’s my only r3 lmao

Need to activate pre fights

Scorpion does M and offensive burst but not well. CGR too but you have to have buffs or it is a slog.

Jefechuta

I guess both

Angela is by far best for metal god. I can never get a solo in these fights and got one first try.

I thought odin does not benefit from his pre fights?

Finalfuryk

So Nebula's repair does not scale the way Absorbing Man's did. That is a huge blessing.

He only meets the Carina challengers objective. He is size M but not burst damage.

Burst + size M seems to be Gambit food

Easy prowess buffs to stop autoblock.
Go for sp3 which inflicts two stuns and completely shuts down nebula regen (Gambit's ability).
Gambit relic gives a chance to go unblockable when converting kinetic charges.

I Can reduce nebule health upto 60% using my 7* r1 gambit.

CyborgNinja135

Surfer is great! Almost got the solo but then I got hit with the sp2. Remember to go for the sp3 aptitude, otherwise you won't have enough buffs to stop the autoblock

Ant-Man works for God and Metal. Shocker for Offensive Burst.

Sig 180 Angela is practically the same as sig 200 so save the sigs if she's already sig 180

No. Odin should start the first fight in any quest with an aptitude, fury, and armor up.

EdisonLaw

Proxima for Offensive: Burst and Medium

Angela for Metal and God

Carina’s challengers: Mole man possibly? Anyone who’s shock immune

MrSakuragi

Looks like Longshot is the only one that mewts 2 objectives - Carina’s challengers and M/Burst.

I doubt it with the insane number of shocks you will stack from the autoblock might just chip you down to a one hit KO

I don’t think ant man is a god

Priyabrata

Scorpion does M and offensive burst but not well. CGR too but you have to have buffs or it is a slog.

Not well? He's probably the best option there,(maybe not the best cause surfer) you just need the right strategy with scorp

ItsClobberinTime

For #Size:M and #Offensive:Burst, Silver Surfer works wonders if you have the 7*:

Again it's a slog with her autoblock, but I listed him for a reason.

Okay, maybe I'm mistaken. I was looking at options that came up filtered. Maybe I hit the wrong filter or something.
