    For spiderham path I went
    Sassy
    Mordo
    Onslaught.

    Mordo destroys viz and can do annhilus. Also on ham. Just stack power stings. Wait till you get the special 3 icon on you and pop sp3 its an instant kill

    ok i completed this quest

    Nebula path - first 4 fights solo
    Adam - 3 revives with sentinel and ironheart
    Aegon - 1 team revive.

    Ares - 5-6 team revives and 25 solo revives. This fight absolutely sucks. You need ultra fast reflexes to do all actions, on top of that the time will keep on changing every phase and he throws random specials. I'll say 99% of the community is going to brute force this sh*t. I haven't dexed a single special fully.

    Thanks to vigor charges the more you die, you'll deal wayy more damage. My strategy after 15+ vigor charges is just to hit as much as possible with your best attacker before he throws a special. At 20 vigor my silk took 10% of his health so after 15 revivee you'll dela insane damage.

    Stick to one attacker until final phase since vigor cross fights apply to attacker and not defended.

    The last phase is absolute sh*t Ares Ai is like onslaught on steroids. He acts like he is the msd in light intercepting. Try to complete parts of the special attack actions, or simply just do one dex and keep on tapping block screen which will register few parries. This will remove some solid chunk of his immortalities. Use team revives kn this phase

    I'll say 30 revives are pretty good if you wanna brute force this guy.

    Pausing on Ares helps just when he takes out the weapon

    You can see which special he's throwing from the glow in his eyes , one flash for sp1 two for the sp2, pausing is just sad and definitely not the way it should be done
    Tha is for the tip, I'll see if I can use your method. Else I'll just do the pausing. I'm good.

    No lmao, why would they. It wouldn't be a boss fight if u could skip his hardest phase

    Did pretty much the same for my run too and costed around the same.
    After seeing MSD's stream I thought I had the prompts on lock but I couldn't have been more wrong, like the first parry is fine but I am not able to understand when to parry the 2nd time

    I haven’t tried it nor do I want to, but would G2099 shut down that final 5% like she does normally?

    I doubt it as he can't die with his persistent charges. So I'd also doubt that it would take him from 5% to 1 HP.

    Help please 👍

    Youll have to restart, adams opponent has to have atleast three buffs, so characters like howard will work on him.

    Any debuff.
    Weirdly enough, I tried Vox for Nebula path, and his debuffs seems extremely inefficient, even when I put 10 at once. Then I tried with Iron Man, and his 3 armor breaks on sp1 were dealing 29000 damage. How does this node works? I'm lost

    There’s a cooldown on the damage from applying debuffs, so if you drop ten degens at the same time you only get credit for one debuff.

    There is a 1.5 second delay between debuffs then only your debuffs iell deal damage

    Right, you will only see one red number if you apply all three breaks within a 1.5 second window. Same issue with Medusa, for example. If you go M-M, you’ll only get credit for the first armor break.

    Would magneto work for annhilus?

    My last path left is the one I’m least confident about based on my roster. It’s the Cosmic/Skill Cassie path with the two 7* gate.

    I see almost everybody recommend Serpent to carry this path, but I only have a 6* Ascended Serpent. Would he work?

    Here is the team I was thinking of.

    6* R5 Serpent - Ascended Sig 200
    7* R2 Deathless Thanos - Unawakened
    7* R3 Medusa - Awakened

    Would an R3 Adam Warlock (Awakened) be better than my baby Deathless Thanos?

    I would say serpent is still very useful even at 6 stars, he shuts down the annoying nodes on most fights
