SandeepS

Is Magneto M? Hopefully he works.

Ortoun

Magneto is medium so he works. Jack can knock out 2 objectives if you have him as he does both the m/shielding and tech villain objectives.

Bendy

Tech villain is a fun one i like this weeks skipped other 2 as wasnt caring much but wanted to do that one fight as looking at nodes its actually a fun set and a few things to watch for

DONZALOOG1234

R1 unduped Moondragon is perfect. Got a solo on my 3rd try

BigTuna_2054

Jack Olantern does two objectives and is reverse control immune.

ShaggyM

This was such a bad champ to use for AOA. I've already had to fight her a few times as tiny Cassie. This is a guaranteed bugged fight.

Squidopus

Professor X the goat, don’t know how many Season of Suffering bosses he’s soloed for me. Clears the psychic shielding + size: m objective.

Since he ignores both miss and evade while above 25 channeling charges (aka almost always), you don’t have to bother playing around the bust a groove node and can just play mostly normally. Push Cassie to sp2 because the combo detonation debuff is annoying to deal with, and don’t dash back too much to avoid the crush debuff (although X’s falter means that you have a bit of a safety buffer if you mess up). The only difficult part should be managing the power sting from the node. Don’t get cocky about it, that thing ate over a third of my 7* r2’s health. If you have to forgo some specials during mind control or lose your prowesses to avoid the power sting, do it and just take it slow, X will get the job done eventually.

@Squidopus is prof x a better counter than red/white mags? I have a 7* r1 prof x and w mags, and 5* r5a red mags. Confused on who to use.

JLordVileJ

I'm 2k shards away from a titan should I wait to see if I can get Jack through banquet or just go for it

Edit i said I'm at 2k titan shards, I meant 2k away from a titan

I haven’t tried Mags, but if you’re comfortable with Professor X’s play style he’s pretty easy. It took me a couple tries because I got impatient and either tried to power through the power sting or mistimed my specials around it, but if you’re willing to take it slow and steady he’s very safe. Plus being able to ignore the evade is really helpful if Cassie does throw sp1 and trigger combo detonation, with the Mags I imagine you’re pretty much screwed if she’s in evade mode.

DONZALOOG1234

Solo with R2 unduped Patrigoat

BeastDad

For those that don't have Jack:

Red Mags
Prowler
Red Skull

RiderofHell

I don't have many choices for 2024 and this fight is too much going on who the hell created this fight?.

captain_rogers

@DONZALOOG1234 what's the rotation with patrimid?

IAmGrO_ot78

Fun fight, easy to mess up 🥵

• R3 Red Skull
• R3 Negasonic
• 6R5A Mags

No solos 🤭😝

Greed_Exodus

I used red mags, shocker and bill, the 2024 one sucked for me had almost no options and had to sp3 rotation with bill sooo slow

shield311

Magneto cheeses the psychic shielding node, use his normal rotation while playing around nodes, throw sp3 on 35+ prowess, fight over in 2 sp3 (r5a), solo

Tech objective was tricky, took me 5 revives using 7r2 ultron

Hero, 2024 objective was pure pain, 8 revives using 7r2 IronHeart (I tried to use patriot here thinking he might cook)

Jack2634

i used red mags (brainrot heavies spam), skull (sp3 power drain) and prowler. This fight should be pretty straight forward once you get the rhythm going

Same group I used. Just avoid the power stings and you are good to go.

JLordVileJ

Did it with 5 star magneto, 2 revives. Got em down to 11 percent with one revive, the I died, revived again. Could have done it in 1 if I didn't throw specials with power sting

Eb0ny-O-M4w

Another one of these fights, and yet another one full of bugs. This is getting quite riddiculous at this point

Squidopus

Here’s a unique one for those interested. Solo with 6* r4 unascended Northstar for the 2024 hero objective. Probably not the easiest or most optimal choice, but he’s actually pretty good.

The main benefit to Northstar is his multihits, which means you almost never have to respect the power sting node or Cassie’s combo detonation; a MLLLM combo already nets you 12 hits in the combo meter. His sig is also nice in that it lets you eat hits to block (or the face if you mess up with the crush debuff) pretty comfortably, although it shouldn’t be necessary if yours is unduped. Just avoid parrying except to trigger the pursuit/vigilance, throw a starting sp3, and then go into your usual sp2 into sp1 spam. My fight was slow because I was extra respectful of the timers, you can probably cut the time down with better play. Also no, his slow does not prevent the evade because of adamant axiom, you still have to play into the node.

Final note, if you want to do this and your Northstar doesn’t have a 5* or 6* Gambit relic attached already, attach it to him for this fight. The crit rating during specials is a really big boost to make sure all his prowesses and reverb remain paused so you can focus on playing around the nodes rather than Northstar’s own timers.

Cloudddey_bro

Gotta take this one slow and steady. Watch the timers for that panic node and make sure you get rid of the power sting before throwing a special. Also always push her to sp2.

Villain & Tech: shocker solo. Took me a hell of a lot a tries but I got it done. Just a normal shocker fight except you’re playing it slower

Psychic Shield M: White Mags solo. Great for this as he turns off the evade and miss node, so all you have to worry about is pushing sp2 and getting rid of the power sting.

Hero 2024: Dust solo. Build to sp3, sandstorm, sp2, then sp1s for duration of sandstorm. Again be patient and watch that panic node

Squidopus

And the last solo. Didn’t get fancy with it, I have a r3 7* Red Skull and people here said he’s good, I’m not gonna not use him. Just spam sp1 for some damage since Cassie is shock immune and push her to sp2 while playing around the nodes. Skull is so bulky that you’re in very little direct danger, just watch the power stings and combo detonation. Boring but it gets the job done, I got the solo first try.

DONZALOOG1234

Solo with r4a Omega Sentinel

DONZALOOG1234

@DONZALOOG1234 what's the rotation with patrimid?

Build up resolve debuffs which are easy in this fight. His lights give 2 combo so easy to get off her combo detonation, along with the power sting and crush.

Trigger REVERSE, SP2 and repeat. At 7 resolve debuffs you can trigger REVERSE.

Ercarret

I used Red Mags for the psychic shielding + Medium objective, Dust for the 2024 + Hero one, and finally Punisher 2099 for the Tech + Villain one.

All worked really well.

My Red Mags is only 6r4 but still knocked it out of the park. If I hadn't accidentally thrown my SP3 just as the power sting activated, I would probably have gotten a solo. Cassie was already down to about 20%.

My Dust is r2 and worked surprisingly well. I haven't used her in this type of content before but she got Cassie down in a couple of revives.

Punisher 2099 was amazing. He has such good fight control that he can easily lock Cassie down for long stretches of time. The only thing to watch out for is that it can be really hard to push Cassie to her SP2 since you give her so little power, so you'll probably have to deal with her power detonations (or whatever they're called) from time to time. The upside is that you can usually hit her uninterrupted for quite a while before she reaches another special, so you have time to get rid of those detonations. All in all the easiest objective for me despite me thinking that it would be the hardest since I didn't have any of the champions that people suggested.

Ashacekar

I used Red Mags, Prowler and Red Skull. It became tougher in that order. Mostly parry heavy style we need to use.

Hey, that's what I was coming to say! I have a 7R2, and while he wasn't my first choice (Ironheart was since I forgot she has the node that shortens debuff for each one), he was easiest. Got the easy solo with him.
