Saga Incursions final Killmonger boss too OP

LamZid

Zone 15 last boss (Killmonger) and his node combinations are too OP making it impossible to take him down. Falter, glancing and indestructible/unblockable combination completely shut me down.

LamZid

I have to keep my combos below 5 to keep his power gain down from debuffs so I get glancing. When he goes indestructible and unblockable after 15 secs, it’s completely unmanageable.

Is there no armour break champions in saga?

It stinks but the boss isn’t the same every time so you can run it again

Do you have second chance? If you do (options are limited since you already are past the champ switch node) I'd let him hit me, as much as possible while the indestructible is up, then attack him. You'll have massive damage, but you will probably die.

You may just want to restart.

What hacks do you currently have?

I didn’t bring any coz none was needed in zones 1-14

Ugh, just hate having to redo when I invested in a few potions already

Prowed degen, regen front, buff corn, strategic movement and impact purge

I skipped 2nd chance but in hindsight, prolly should’ve opted for that…(heavy sigh)

If you work fast with cheeilth you might be able to keep pushing him to sp2 which is easy to dex while you keep spamming sp1 which should take care of the unsteady and falter.

It's a sucky final boss given your champs and hacks but you can melt him down eventually if you squint and don't care about revive spamming.

I don't think Zone 15 rewards are good enough to justify revive spamming unless you have those revives sitting around already. Spending units to clear incursions is insane imo...

I always thought this too.

I agree but with no context from the OP it's possible he has spent chasing whatever the stupid thing is that forces participation this month and might prefer to just get it done rather than start over.

At this point, it's one fight and done. There is every chance he could stall in an earlier zone on a rerun.

It's not ideal but it's an option rather than throwing away the work.

Sunk cost fallacy etc etc but who cares, units are easy to come by for free and no one gets a prize for itemless runs besides the satisfaction of doing it*

*scrub tier player advice.

phillgreen

Another way to look at it, what's the value of a whole 7* plus titan shards etc to each individual vs the revive cost to get it done.

LamZid

Yea I ended up just quitting. I’d be wasting units. I have 5.5k but saving that for banquet. I might run it again but just so annoyed that everything up to that final boss was fairly easy. Final rewards were 7* R2 generic rank up, light essence, 15 7* sig stones, 7* basic and titan shards, etc. so fairly decent.

phillgreen

If it was a decent run until then, go read some stuff and have another crack at it
