First wanted to say that I’m not a whale or even a casual spender. Broke my f2p streak last year with the BrB pass but I don’t usually spend on anything here. Not something I’d mention usually but wanted to add it as a disclaimer because I saw a lot of people (especially on the discord) saying this was pretty much made for whales
Left my entire quest overview + revives used and then left my thoughts at the bottom. Skip there if you don’t care about the quest itself. Hope this helps someone, feel free to ask questions. Also took a bunch of screenshots but I think this post is long enough as is
Quest 1
Gorr - Nefaria r2. Just used sp1 spam and that’s it, stay in his ionic thing and you’re good (solo)
Dazzler - Peni r1. Slow played this fight and didn’t bother to intercept. Pushed her back with the striker and by hitting her block (solo but very long)
LDS - Prowler r3. Just spammed sp3 mainly and had to use sp1’s here and there to remove that overcharge effect he has. Took 18 whole minutes but it’s easy, just super boring (solo)
Enchantress - Onslaught r3. Sp2, sp1. Learn how to dodge the sp1 and just play onslaught like normal. I missed the dex and when she gets the incinerate your block gets shredded so I got her to 6% (1 revive)
Thor Rags - Adam r4. Very easy fight, just threw sp2’s and ate the damage in the pod. You hit like a truck and you just break his block (solo)
Arcade - Vox r1. Just spam sp1 and use the dex trick to dodge his sp1. He does awesome here even at r1 (solo)
Leader - Mantis r2. I pushed him to sp2 and he got me once, but easy fight aside from that. I think she wants to be awakened here though? I think I should’ve used Black Cat but she did fine (1 revive)
Bullseye - Guilly 2099 r2. No sinister here so I was super worried but she’s probably the next best. Power drain on the sp1, make sure to dex at least a few of the projectiles on the sp1 as well. I did take some unnecessary block damage here by missing parries so I think I could do this in one revive but idk, a r3 would definitely do great here (2 revives)
Torch - Silk r3. Just pay attention to the debuff immunity thing and make sure to perform the right actions to remove his protection. I forgot he went debuff immune at one point and ate a combo but she can solo (1 revive)
Serpent - Wiccan r2. Honestly thought this would be way easier but he shreds your block. Was being annoying a bit but it was ok. Keep the neutralize up and try and push him to sp2 (3 revives)
Spiral - Deathless She-Hulk r2. Very fun fight with her, make sure to pay attention to her stun node but I was doing medium -> heavy. She turns off a lot of stuff here, just hit her when she’s stunned mainly and bait sp1. Also make sure to dex out of the way of her dancing blades or parry them. I got hit with them once but she works like a charm (1 revive)
Dust - Ironheart r3. Sp1 spam, you can safely parry once you have 5+ debuffs, and hit her regularly to make sure she doesn’t get armors. She melts her (solo)
Thanos - Dani r1. This fight is tedious without Jean. I didn’t wanna rank Dani up so I just threw her at him until he died lol. Not too bad for a r1 honestly (6-7 revives)
Overall around 15 revives. Some fights could’ve been done better for sure but I’m happy with this run, just used some of my stash on it. Aside from Thanos no fight was super revive intensive even using r1’s and r2’s
Quest 2
Gorr: r4 Adam. He does this so well, sp3 when you have the fury from the counter and just keep hitting him. Took around 2 mins and he was down. A r3 can also solo it and he’s the fastest. Otherwise use Void or Wong (solo)
Dazzler: r3 Starky. Another super fast fight. Build to 10 poise, you’re hitting 25k mediums and you have a power drain if you push her to sp2. Ham is the best best option I believe (solo)
LDS: r2 Medusa. Armor shatter and spam sp2. Not a super long fight even with a r2 but not a short one either (solo)
Enchantress: r3 Hulk. She’s annoying but it was mainly a skill thing, I was able to dex with onslaught but for some reason I kept eating sp1’s here. Still not bad cause you can stun lock her (2 revives)
Thor Rags: r2 Hyperion. This fight should’ve been a solo, he’s amazing for it. Great damage from the incinerates and you can gain power easily to counter his power gain. He was at 700 health when I messed up and pushed him to sp3 but Hyperion is probably the best here aside from CB (1 revive)
Arcade: r2 Serpent. Another fight that I messed up by walking into the poison cloud which does a lot of damage. Goal here is to just dex out of the cloud and then dash in (2 revives)
Leader: r3 Photon. I had no idea what was going on this fight but you can sp3 super fast cause of the power gain and you can stay close with the sp2 untouchable. I like this fight, just learn the sp1 dex and you can use bullseye or CB here (solo)
Bullseye: r2 sunspot. Dazzler at high sig or Sunspot seem like the only good options here. Honestly not a bad fight, he has high damage and PB even if he takes bleed damage. One fight he was being a jerk so maybe could’ve been one revive but I’ll take it (2 revives)
Torch: r2 DSH. She works super well for this fight but the AI was being so stingy with the specials even with the trauma on him. I took off like 60% on the last attempt though and he was playing along (2 revives)
Serpent: r3 Chavez. Pro tip, don’t take an sp1 to the face. Other than that, she works perfectly. Knock him down a lot and heal with her healing dimension + spam the power gain dimension (1 revive)
Spiral: r3 bullseye. Very fun and easy fight with him. I did parry, medium, heavy, and he can evade out of the blades. He also ignores the falter. Just learn the sp1 dex (1 revive)
Dust: r2 NTW. Keep the incinerates up, she’ll never go unblockable. Make sure not to hit her when you’ve maxed the incinerates too much, just let her tick down and repeat. Very long fight but not hard (solo)
Thanos: r1 BrB. He works amazing for this fight, just don’t get smacked while charging the heavy. Sp2 and keep the grit up and spam sp1. A r3 should solo this pretty easily I think (4 revives)
Total: 15 revives. Thanos was way easier with BrB than with Dani. Had fun with this one, I think the only major slog was Dust and Arcade was annoying, other than that most fights were pretty fast
Quest 3
Pulled Juggs right before from the I did this quest so I didn’t have to use Hulk or OG spidey (both can solo)
Gorr: r3 Juggs. Spammed sp3 with max MD and just heavied to remove the regens (solo)
Dazzler: r3 Zola. Just played risky and heavied a bunch, sp3 heals you a ton and you can spam it (solo)
LDS: r2 Titania. Knull is the best option here but I didn’t have him so I just used her. Very safe fight but it took like 14 mins (solo)
Enchantress: r3 Photon. Finally understood her sp1 dex on the last revive, just have to dash out of the 3rd hit early to dex the 4th (2 revives)
Thor Rags: r3 Starky. Baited heavies, used specials, very fast fight (solo)
Arcade: r2 Guilly 2099. Super simple with her, you can drain his power and just play as normal. She hits super hard after 100 hits (solo)
Leader: r3 Red Skull. Messed up here and used too many light attacks but he’s so great for this fight. You gain a ton of power and can constantly drain his + spam sp2 and 3 (1 revive)
Bullseye: r1 Gentle. Didn’t wanna rank him up so just used him at r1 and he did good. Nothing special here, played it safe and then just went ham (1 revive)
Torch: r1 SIM. He’s easily the best option for this fight, r1 did it in 5 mins. You start to hit insane numbers , just make sure to spam sp1 to stay debuff immune as well (solo)
Serpent: r2 Kushala. Took two sp1’s to the face but it’s just a straightforward Kushala fight (2 revives)
Spiral: r3 Okoye. Just watch for the falter or you’re in trouble. DOT ticks her down (1 revive)
Dust: r3 Shathra. She deals with her well but you have no way to play around sand. I kept throwing sp1’s into her block the first time around. Glad also works well here (2 revives)
Thanos: r3 Chavez. She hits like a truck but it’s still easy to mess up to RC + it’s a longer fight (3 revives)
Total: 12 revives. Imo this one was the easiest, I honestly thought quest 1 was the hardest especially because of Thanos
Personally love content like this. I know pretty well how people here feel about it but I like getting to use champs like this. Highlights for me are SIM and Vox soloing Torch and Arcade respectively at r1 . I also saw some people saying people doing this content wouldn’t even need the rewards but they’re still gonna be great for BGs for me
The rewards are kinda eh overall though, if they were gonna buff em and give us comp I wouldn’t be upset. I never grind units for 4th of July anyway so I figured I might as well just do this and empty the stash. Personally thought there should’ve been a 2-3 generic gem and you shouldn’t have to choose between the nexus and one of the defenders. Should’ve been given both + a deathless piece choice as well for people who needed it
Rewards: New Knull (finally), New Juggs, first time awakening on Zola and Okoye, and a mutant AG
Yes this is a lot of yap

Do you think Cyclops would be nice for Bullsye quest 2?
I did have fun with most of it but LDS was such a slog haha. I just threw on a YouTube video and knocked it out. The others didn’t take too long though which was great (other than Dazzler round 1)
Dazzler - Peni r1. Slow played this fight and didn’t bother to intercept. Pushed her back with the striker and by hitting her block (solo but very long)
Dazzler: r3 Starky. Another super fast fight. Build to 10 poise, you’re hitting 25k mediums and you have a power drain if you push her to sp2. Ham is the best best option I believe (solo)
Dazzler: r3 Zola. Just played risky and heavied a bunch, sp3 heals you a ton and you can spam it (solo)
Torch: r1 SIM. He’s easily the best option for this fight, r1 did it in 5 mins. You start to hit insane numbers , just make sure to spam sp1 to stay debuff immune as well (solo)
I do have Zola and SIM though
1) The fun ones! I soloed Gorr with Count Nefaria, Thor Rags with Adam Warlock, and Arcade with Vox; and single revives on Human Torch (with Silk), Bullseye (with Sinister) and Serpent (with Spiral). I had a lot of fun with those.
2) The annoying ones, which weren't really hard per se but just took a buttload of time. Lady Deathstrike is a prime example. I used Punisher 2099 and while I think I made two initial attempts that basically went nowhere, my third attempt was a 10-minute slog to the finish line. Dazzler was kind of similar. At first I had a lot of trouble fighting her simply because I'm not used to fighting Dazzler with or without nodes, but once I learned how to fight her, it still took a long time to get through.
3) The really hard fights. You either have Ironheart for Dust, or you don't. And if you don't...whoo, boy! I think Gorr and Bullseye are similar in that you can just be way out of luck if you don't have very specific counters. And let's not forget Thanos. Everything had been quite manageable until I got to him, but that grumpy old grandpa just...wouldn't...die. I used more revives on him than throughout the rest of the quest combined, I think.
But as you can see, the fun fights ultimately outnumbered the annoying or really hard ones, so I'll call that a win. Were the rewards terribly good after this first round? No. But at least I've gotten through one round, and generally gotten a feel for the content. That feels good, at least.
