Story Time:

I had 7 20% revs, 2 40% rev, and 400 units left today after my 5th run, so I thought I'd lock in and get the final path done with that remaining stash. My confidence was pretty high after getting Ares done in like 4 revives and soloing most of the path. Cue my final path: the dreaded mutant/mystic Cassie path. 

My team options were pretty good: 7*r2 Domino for Cassie, 7* r3 Juggs for Ares/Toad/Prowler, and 6* r5a Onslaught for the rest. (Initially, I had 7* r2 Dazzler for Cassie, but I found Dom just worked better for me).

1st fight Cassie: Oml I hated this fight, there's a billion things to keep track of (power sting, her sp1 combo, evade, miss, power drain, and crush) and the AI was being bratty with her sp1 (e.g. she woke up with an sp1 immediately after my sp3 knocked her down, yeah very fun). It's the first fight so my goal was to go through with the path only if I manage solo her. 2 hour worth of tries later... I gave up on that lmao. I just couldn't keep track of everything and I always messed up at around 50%. Got her down with 2 revives (both l2). 

2nd fight Gwenpool: soloed her with Onslaught, but I lost half of my health because I messed up a bit before getting the hang of the fight. 

3rd fight Iron Fist: Spoiler, this is the final fight in my the story xD. I went in with Onslaught, chipped him down a few percent, then died to the block dmg. I only have 20% revs left at this point, so I chuck a few more and this is when I realize that maybe this run isn't meant to be lol. So I quit. 😐

Yeah, those 20% revs didn't cut it with the amount of chip dmg I was taking in that fight. Didn't have any potions and I'm sure as hell not going to use units on them. Plus, I still had 5 more fights left
including Ares. So I cut my losses, we go again, maybe 2 weeks later when I've farmed enough. Till then epoch stays 95% explored...



(I'm so close to the r4 gem... this hurts)

That exit forced me to finally r3 my unduped 7* Onslaught (my sweet catalysts rip 😭).

    I feel you! That’s my last path too, cassie is my only problem fight so I’m just practicing unboosted until I can get at least 50% health off before dying. Thinking about bringing in dragon man just for Heimdall too as Juggs and Onslaught can do all other fights

    I'm on my last, Cassie wasn't to bad for me, did her with Domino, prowler was absolutely disgusting, could never get to my 2nd special, cost me like 7 revives. My last path is 6. Should be doable, but need to re-up

    Same here, 95%... Cosmic/Skill on Cassie's path. R4 so close but still too far 😆
    I need to prepare 3k units to enter final path, maybe 2 weeks later...

    I don't get spending 2 hours trying to solo a fight you hate, but refusing to grind arena to triple your units in same amount of time...

    bru this is my first path with a 7r2 kush(sign 80), 7r2 sinister, and 6*r4a onslaught, drained 40 revives, have 2.5k units left, I will be just fine, all I need for now is valiant

    Path 6 was actually not as bad as I was expecting, Shala/Juggs managed to solo most fights. I spent like 1 or 2 revives outside Annihilus in total.

    I did Annihilus with Dazzler so I only dealt dmg with my sp2 (sp1 to build charges then sp2 to do dmg). Cost me like 5-10 revs on him alone because I died before even dealing dmg on some tries. But that's with me also not playing the best so it could be done in less for sure. Good luck :)

    Is this some arena addict joke that I'm too normal to understand?

    I feel your pain… I have one more path, but I am so broke… idk how I will be able to finish this path in any reasonable time…

    I was in the same boat last week. Wrapped up 5/6 paths weekend before last but had very few units and revives left. Even had the same path remaining. Sat tight for a week and did some intense arena grinding to rebuild, then knocked it out on Sunday with the same team you have planned. So, don’t give up hope!

    For me the bad fight was Gwenpool - just couldn’t get the timing down. All the rest of the fights were a revive or three. (maybe 4 on Heimdall?) Juggs trampled Toad, Heimdall, and Prowler. The Prowler fight in particular was easier than I thought it would be - was probably the one I was most dreading given the nodes.

    Good luck!

    Appreciate the information, I thought Juggs was good for Annhil? My team was going to be r3 Onslaught, R3 Juggs, and R3 Kush

    That’s my next path too. Good luck to everyone in the same boat.

    If you use Juggs for Annihilus, blocking any of his hits would put a stifle/armor break debuff on you, there's also a node that puts stifle on you when you hit Annihilus. That turns off Juggs, unless you go for an sp3 which would give him the ability to ignore those for a certain period. So it might be doable with juggs tbf, but I just went in with Dazzler for simplicity sake.

    Yep, my plan was power boost L3, appreciate it, I have Dazzler, but r2 unduped

    I have the cosmic skill nebula path without Knull/Scream/Medusa/Sable/White Widow
    I wish everyone luck.

    Aarkus can do a chunk of that path on his own if you have him, outside photon (too much power gain where getting to sp3 KOs) and destroyer. My team was r3 Aarkus, 6* r5a Elsa, and r1 Sable. Wasn't too bad with them.

    Aarkus on nebula is just dexing and blocking for the most part (parrying nullifies his buffs, so avoid that). Try to get to an sp3 on Aarkus, then the dmg just deals itself (avoid sp2s as it locks armor break debuffs into armor shattered stopping debuffs from building up).

    Nah sp2 is good, so you can apply coldsnaps by dancing around.

    Sadly no Aarkus either, best I got is Gorr

    Yeah, but if u have the sp3 aura up with the armor shattered, it applies the coldsnap only once and it stays until the aura ends. So for that duration he won't apply any new debuffs. The best method is just cycling sp3s, but letting the armor breaks fall off before throwing each sp3. This was the fastest method, I got Nebula down in under 3 mins.
