Struggling with which team to use for the Mutant/Mystic Cassie path

edited February 24 in General Discussion
I’ve knocked out 5 of 6 Epoch paths, with my final one being the Cassie Mutant/Mystic path.

I’m struggling with which champs to bring. The one definite is my 7* Duped Juggs, who I’ll be using for Ares and probably Toad and Prowler. I’m debating my other two champs. My original plan was Domino and Kushala, both of which are 7* awakened and high sig. However, I’m now debating dropping Kushala for either Onslaught or DPX. I know Onslaught is great for a number of the fights on the path, but in all honesty I’m not very good at Onslaught. I also only have a 6* R5A max sig Onslaught. The fights I’m most concerned about are Cassie, Heimdall, and Prowler - particularly with the power drain node.

Any advice? Is Onslaught so good for some of these fights that I should bring him even though I stink with him? Who were your MVPs for the path?

    Prof X is great for Cassie and prowler

    I don’t think Donino brings much to the table from an rpg perspective

    Hmmm…that’s an interesting thought. I’m probably better at Prof X than Onslaught, so that could be a good possible substitution.

    Good luck. That's the last path I have, but I'm waiting to see if the revive comp for Ares persistent bug is dropping soon. Because I don't want those revives to go to waste.

    @willrun4adonut who are you thinking of running the path with?

    I would probably go with PX, Onslaught and Juggs. PX for Cassie and Prowler, Onslaught for Gwen and Heimdall. Juggs for Toad. Anyone for IF…

    For me, Cassie is the worst fight, with Prowler in second place. PX takes evade and miss off the table for Cassie and you don’t have to worry about falter with Prowler. Those fights are still tough but much simpler.

    I did this run yesterday with Domino, Mister Sinister & Onslaught.

    I ranked up my 6-star Onslaught just to do this path. I was able to solo Iron Fist on the first attempt. And he made Prowler so much easier as well (cannot miss, no incinerate damage, once you get the degeneration on him he just melts).

    If you have Professor X then he's probably a good option too, can do all fights except Gwenpool. I just think Onslaught is the better overall champ outside of Epoch so I ranked him up.

    Who did you use for Cassie? I also have Onslaught as 6 star only so would Negasonic be a better option for Ironfist?

    My team was literally Juggs, Domino, and Ons, all 7R3. The only annoying fight was Cassie, which was the only reason I brought Domino. Ons handled Gwenpool and Iron Fist without any issues, and Juggs made the Toad and Heimdall fights extremely easy. I tried Prowler with Ons but ended up using Juggs—I find him more comfortable for that fight.

    Thanks - really helpful. I’m starting to lean towards this team based on the notes above.

    How does Domino make the Cassie fight easier? Don’t get me wrong, I love my domino but I didn’t see how she would answer the evade or miss on a consistent basis.

    I used Domino for Cassie, Gwenpool & Heimdall (Domino wasn't so good for Heimdall since her ability accuracy reduction sometimes prevents her from getting power). Mister Sinister (reverse control immunity) for Toad.

    For your team, I think Juggernaut is great for Toad & Heimdall. Onslaught for Iron Fist & Prowler. Either Domino or Onslaught for Cassie & Gwenpool. Cassie is pretty annoying, but she is the first fight so you can practice a lot more against her.

    Also, Domino can be replaced by anyone. Just use any damage dealer you're comfortable with (Deadpool X-Force, Dazzler, Negasonic...).

    I think it's her small chance of having abilities fail, plus her medium being a double hit so it's easier to remove Cassie's sp1 if she fires it off.

    I used Domino for Cassie, but Onslaught is good also, can totally ignore her Miss phase.

    For Iron Fist I used Onslaught. Cannot imagine a better option since that was the first time I used him, and I got a solo. I think Negasonic also works, I just prefer Onslaught since he makes Prowler easier as well.

    Theres too much you need to line up to be able to ramp up and maintain onslaughts ramp in that cassie fight. Its easier to just use domino

    I ran Dazzler, Juggs, and Onslaught. Used Dazzler for Cassie and Gwen. Juggs for toad, Odin, and prowler. Onslaught for Ironfist.

    I just completed that path with R3 Onslaught, R2 Colossus and r5a Juggs with 2 revives on path and a bunch on Ares. Took Cassie with Colossus, mainly parry heavy with occasional specials when possible. Onslaught for Ironfist and Prowler, both 1 revive each.
    Your options with Onslaught are the better choices imo. I don't know which fights you plan to use Domino and especially DPXF for.

    Necro’ng my own thread in case it helps someone else doing this path:
    Did this today with Domino (Cassie, Gwenpool) , Onslaught (Iron Fist), and Juggs (Toad, Heimdall, Prowler). Juggs was a monster and did really well on all three of his fights. Struggled a bit on Iron Fist initially just because I stink at Onslaught, but actually then figured him out and it went well. Domino did really well against Cassie but I dumped a bunch of revives into the Gwenpool fight as I couldn’t get the rythm down today.

    But hey, it is done now and I definitely recommend the team I used for anyone who is still planning.

    Juggs over onslaught for prowler is interesting, you got a solo? It looks really annoying to get back to the sp2 with onslaught given the gazillion power drain nodes

    Not a solo but maybe 1-2 revives? R3 juggs with maximum momentum SP2s were taking huge chunks of his health off. I just made sure to be dashing to preserve my power when the timer was coming up. After the other 6 fights I had the timing down at that point.

    Don't have juggs. Does onslaught, sinister, soc sup/rintrah (for Heindall) work?

    Anybody can do Heimdall as long as you know how to fight him.

    Agree. Although I will say Juggs made it easier as his unstoppables help dealing with missteps on Heimdall’s heavy.

    That cassie fight is brutal, theres like 6 different things you have to watch out for at the same time
  • NONYABIZZNONYABIZZ Member Posts: 1,054 ★★★★
    The best thing you can do is just boost up and use BASIC ATTACKS only, gives you control of the fight.
    I did that, 9 minute fight but a solo none the less
    I just couldn't bother with having to look out for 6 different things at the same time

    I recommend Professor X. He removes miss and evade from the equation.
