Apparently Herc is broken. Let’s see the fights he does better than other champs.

Hulk buster can drain energy and pin opponent in the corner.
Nobody craps on the Ronan cheese, but everyone uses it.
Need some receipts for that statement. So is Angela. Let’s ask how much the Ronan cheese is used. It’s not 1 in a thousand.
As somebody that's explored all endgame content and does incursions every month, Hercules is broken, period.
I've done ronan cheese mayyyybe 10 times in my life, and I've used herc nearly every quest I'm not trying to use fun counters for.
Also there's no denying herc is one of the best incursions champs. Sure, you could use others; Angela, Aegon, Air Walker(seriously), silk, etc, but herc is the cheese god. He can't die if there's no nullify or AAR, deals insane damage, heals from cides, and is a unit
Not in incursions where you get crazy buffs.
Just in normal questing.
Show me there how he is better than someone like a Silk, Kate Bishop or Hulkbuster.
Even when the nodes don’t benefit him in anyway, as long as they don’t directly counter him he’ll still power through. Hulk buster and silk can’t do that. Kate can probably do similar things, but she doesn’t have the ability to cheese fights at 1% like herc does. She’s much better in necropolis, but herc is still good there, he counters a few fights. I brought him for my run and he served his purpose perfectly.
In bgs he’s still a nuke, I consistently take fam & red skull in sub 45s, Nick in around 50-55, and he’s won me a lot of matches on defense since I know he’ll buy me at least 45s, which is sometimes all I need to win.
Game devs tell you its broken.
CCP tells you its broken.
Players tell you its broken.
You want proof, why don't you prove all of us wrong instead?
But he also does everything else too. He comfortably handled most of act 7. Mindlessly destroys aq. Very clutch in aw. Works well in bg against some of the toughest tech defenders.
I will say, I've gotten completely board of using Hercules. He was benched for most of act 8. He's still rank 4. But that's not because he can't cheese, it's cause he put the game on easy mode.
Herc is the best, please stop with this stupidity. Neither Kate or hulkbuster can deal his damage with survivability and utility.
Im sorry but comparing Angela and Ronan to him is hilarious. They both don’t even deserve to be in the same galaxy as him.
And I say this as the owner of a 7* R3 Angela and as somebody who refuses to take Herc up to R5/ascended on principle: Herc is better than Angela (who you mentioned in a comment other than the one I’m quoting here). Flat out.
He is also better than all of the champions you mention here. That is not to say that the champions you named are not very good in their own rights, they are. But those champions are good because they can counter specific tricky nodes or matchups. Hercules doesn’t even need to read the nodes 99% of the time.
This is why Herc is broken.
Please stop picking fights, seemingly at random - the Forums have enough conflict.
