Are You Kidding Me, Guys?

Tree

I'm gonna make this short and sweet. You specifically said this month's Master was going to be easier. And while you dropped the PI of the regular enemies, you have done terrible things with bosses. Specifically on 3.2, more specifically Modok.

This garbage is stupid, guys. There's no reason I've done 3.2 twice and needed to use almost 150 items. You need to fix this nonsense, ASAP. I know if it was a bug that helped us, you'd be all over emergency maintenance, so it screwing us this hard seems like a matter worth taking time on, but I'd really appreciate some kind of sense of urgency.

I'm really disappointed in your guys' latest slap in the face to the community. I'm even being nice this time.

“Slap in the face” doesn’t mean what you think it means.

There is a reason, and it’s a good one: you don’t have the skill, the roster, or both. Which is OK!

My skill and roster aren't the issue. Last month's master was cake. My issue is a boss that can autoblock without his force field charge, whom if he autoblocks the last hit of your combo, is impossible to block afterward. Not to mention by the time you've finished compensating for that noise, here's another force field charge. Malarkey.

Your skill and roster are the issue, but it will take a little amount of wisdom to see why.

Use AA or use 4 hit combos

4-hit combos are the current strategy, but nightmarish to concentrate on.

It's not THAT hard to count to 4, come on man

Nice to people defending Kabam so vehemently today.

Dude, clearly you don’t have skill or you would realize how easy modok is. Learn to not do 5 hit combos which is very simple so your last attack doesn’t get blocked. There’s also plenty of threads of other noobs whining about this because they don’t know how to fight him. He’s such an easy fight

Tree

Am I being misunderstood? I'm telling you he is autoblocking when he doesn't have a force field charge, and you're questioning my skill? Please explain to me how skill will help me defy the physics on the game.

Am I the only one experiencing this bug?

Easy.

Let's say you are attacking into a normal blocking champion. We all know that doing 4 hits and backing off won't allow for a counter attack. We all know that hitting that 5th hit WILL cause a counter attack. Ergo when facing a champion that will auto block time and count your attack so when they auto block does happen it doesn't leave you open. This is why the 4 and dash is a viable SKILL COMBO. We know about when his auto block will happen so use your skill to adapt to it

The bug of him auto blocking without the buff, no. Knowing how to fight him, yes. Time your attacks and run a 4hit dash and try him again.

Deadbyrd9

Yeah, he does that but 4 hit combos is all you need regardless of the bug

Tree

Oh my God. Learn to read, please. If he autoblocks during your combo while he has a force field charge, and you run five hits, you're open to attack, yes. This can be circumvented by refraining from a fifth hit, like you're all saying. Now, if you read carefully, I'm telling you that he is autoblocking without charges, when he shouldn't be, and interrupting my attacks, even one hit in. Am I being clear enough?

GroundedWisdom

To the OP's credit, it's pretty much impossible to get a Combo in with him. I spent most of my time hitting him when he's Blocking. He has this default going on. Usually the AI is pretty quick to Block lately. M.O.D.O.K. Blocks every hit or two. Not undoable, but frustrating. I have a hard time getting any Combo in because he Blocks the majority of the Fight.

Deadbyrd9

The bug does nothing to stop you from easily beating him with 4 hit combos. I’ve already explored uncollected. Bugged or not he’s easy to fight

HAVOC

Modok is also Auto-Blocking while stunned from Parry. Parry/Stun him, drop a 3-4 hit combo while stunned and on second hit during Stun he Auto-Blocks.....WTH to that (°_°)

Oh my god. Learn to read, please. We are saying use 4 hits 100% of the time. Yes we are understanding he autos without the buff, but we are saying do everything you can with the idea he WILL auto block you regardless of the buff or not. Am I being clear enough?

It does when he is able to strike you after the first hit when your character is indefensible.

Well said!

Rofl.

This is the easiest master event yet. Use an ability reducer or smaller combo as suggested. 150 items is ludicrous.

So tell me more about how hard master monthly quest is because I haven’t started yet I was too busy beating the uncollected difficulty lol

The last time I used 150 items in a quest was when we had 3day item use going on.

I honestly think 150 is an exaggeration. No way this person counted every potion and buff he used

i agree concentration can be tough at times, but I've found it to be very helpful to succeed in this game

another strat is to parry-heavy only against MODOK

I cleaned out a full inventory of Level 2 potions, and the rest were Level 1, with a few reviews scattered in.

Tree

Obviously I am experiencing a rare bug, because nobody seems to be understanding what I'm explaining is happening on my game.

Deadbyrd9

He doesn’t strike on an auto lock unless you try to intercept. If all you do is parry and 4 hits he won’t hit back after an auto block unless you do 5 hit combos which you shouldn’t do against him

Tree

People are talking about "ease" and "skill", which are irrelevant terms to what I am experiencing.
