Is r5 5* ascended aegon worth doing necro with?

ChaosKing

I'm tired of waiting for a 6* aegon so i might just use a r5 5* aegon, how many more revives would you say it'll take compared to a 6*?

Is it just for one path? I know a couple people who did completion with 5* Aegon but it’s by no means ideal. If you go for it I’d try to have 90-100+ revives just out of safety. I’d only do this if you don’t have Kate, shuri, or wong though.

I think it's very possible just a lot more expensive. I would have a full inventory and 4000 units on hand

I did it with a 5* using around 220 revives but without using healing potions.

In that case I would say go for it. With 8.4 around the corner you definitely want to be in a position to get valiant.

4000 units is 400 revives right?

It'll be an expensive run but doable

I did it with the 5* just don’t forget the relic like I did. I only did the Titania path with the 5* tho. Can’t see why he wouldn’t work on other paths, took me like 80ish revives on that run I think. The only upside of doing the 5* is you’ll max ramp the first fight.

No, only 100 revives (40 units each)

I don‘t know… A 5* R5 Ascended is about the same strength as a 6* r3… Plus, you get a shorter enrage timer (or whatever the timer is called in Necro). I used a 6* R5 ascended and did my completion with 85 revives.

With a 5* I‘d plan with around 225 revives.

You can stack up 75 through apothecary and 22h solo events (you need to not claim a week‘s worth of L2 revives from the 22h solo events), so it‘s another 150 for purchase (6k units)

Maybe see if you can buy some of the EQ-offers or maybe the 500 unit offer returns, so you can buy some of these…

80 revives with a 5* and no relic is awesome!

I used Kate for my run so I’m not the best person to ask for that, but probably just a typical Aegon team. Aegon/proxima/heimdall/reverse controls immune. For the 5th team slot maybe nick for +20% attack? Or Odin? Up to you.

I used shuri for cap brit but you don’t need her for it. Aegon can do that whole path. Just put the biggest relic you can on him. Not a lot of them give him much to work with.

Not really… You‘ll be purifying the debuffs very quickly… Maybe in the first fight you will lose some health because you don‘t crit so much (under 100 combo the chance to purify on crit is 40%)

But once you reach 100 combo, every crit purifies, so you should be fine…

u have 7 star shuri so yeah....i'd say that if you didn't bring in aegon, the run might be significantly cheaper

I would’ve needed someone else, there a lot of pesky annoying cosmic defenders that would have been annoying to deal with. She was only r1 and not awakened so it’s not like she a way better option. Plus it’s not everyday you play Aegon and probably would’ve lasted like 30-60mins longer if Aegon not there smashing.

Or…if you got Wong, and skills, you could do Necropolis itemless with only Wong on your team. (Normax on youtube).

It was done when it was possible to farm revives, but still had to buy more than 1000 units on revives.
