I got lucky enough to get all three of them as 7 stars and I am wondering in which I should invest my sig stones . I am torn . I know all three of them benefit quite nicely but I was hoping some more knowledgeable players can weigh in

    If I'm not mistaken, caps sig is utility. Guardians adds defensive stuff. Angela's is more offensive.

    Angela gets her immunities from high sig, and with Odin pre-fight she will start with 3+ buffs, so no champ can remove her buffs if she got high sig.

    Probably my most used champ since her buff, with Odin synergy and pre-fight.

    Angela. At high sig she she ignores auto block and essentially shrugs off DOT debuffs. I believe she bypasses nullify too with high sig.
    all of this comes into play with the more buffs she has activated however.

    I relied on my 5* CAIW for a long time. Max sig gives him a lot of utility for questing but it’s useless in things like BG and Crucible and AOA type content.

    Guardian's is useful to make him tankier but I don’t think it’s as relevant as it was a few years ago.

    Angela is where I’d go. I use my 6* all the time. At max sig, she shortens the duration of all damaging debuffs down to 0 with 3 buffs. Even without the Odin prefights that is easy to maintain and makes her almost fully DOT debuff immune including degen and rupture. She’s comically fun on Icarus paths. Add in the auto block and nullify counters too and great damage and simple play style and she’s the easy choice for me.

    Her


    Use a Thor Relic on her and pick the Fortitude rune and she starts the fight with another buff, which means she gets to her utility that much faster.

    I’m a Guardian guy — man, that kit can cook. No disrespect to Angela or CapIW, because those are also really strong kits. But man, for me, my duped Guardian with a Hulkbuster relic is serious business

    Angela is good at sig60, 25% per buff. So you need 4 buffs to get 100% on her sig abilities. Anymore is pointless, unless you sig200, to get the 33.34% (3 buffs).
    Caiw only benefits from sig in a team, but there are champs that do those debuffs on their own.
    Guardian has a nice sig ability, but unless you really love him, I'd wait for better champs

    That’s not true actually. At sig 60 it is 20% per buff, so she needs 5. At Sig 101 (where I am) it is 25% per buff, so she needs 4. You are right about sig 200, 33.3% per buff, so 3 total. If you have the Thor relic and use it as I note above, it drops by 1 - so 4 at sig 60, 3 at sig 101, and 2 at sig 200.

    She went to sig 200 as soon as I duped her!!



    But then again, my Guardian is sig 200 as well.

    Not quite, guardians is also offensive
