How good is AA unduped?

Recently pulled a 4* AA. I brought him immediately up to 3/30. I have the resources to R4 him, and with RDT I could R5 him.

The question is, is he worth R4 or R5 unduped?

Unduped? Worse than colossus

I pulled him as a featured 5* and eventually took him to rank 4 unduped. He single handedly took me through act 5.1 to 5.3. The damage output is still there when unduped and it is bonkers. Granted he does gain his utility when awakened, but he still has the same damage.

Still melts opponents but doesn't have the extra awesomes that he gets from the dupe.

I would do it.

I ended up pulling 5* Hyperion yesterday so the resources and RDTs I was gonna use to rank him are no longer available, but I'll most likely be going R4 with AA ASAP. Just need a T1A.

How does unduped AA compare to duped x23?

I took unduped AA to 5/50 before my duped X-23. She’s next, though.

He’s just ok unduped, nothing special about him without his sig ability

Depends on what content you are doing.

He is still a beast that can solo Act 1 unduped.

He's much much worse, he's completely useless imo without his duped ability

He has more utility with his sig ability, but unduped he still does crazy amounts of damage.

He doesn't reduce ability accuracy when he's unawakened.

Be weary though, he is useless against bleed/poison immune. Overall still a beast for sure

How are you ranking up cham

You talk as if that's the only thing he does

If he is awakened u can use him against magik since he blocks healing with neurotoxin and also reduces chances of triggering limbo. So that is like 10-15% of his abilities.

No better than a budget Black Panther.

Put him against a bleed or poison immune unduped. Hell put him up against anyone and he's not touching x23 unless he's duped. She's more versatile anyways. And she has great healing if you know how to use her. I'm guessing you don't.

I have Dormammu as my Magik killer.

If you place a poison debuff on someone who is poison immune does the debuff still run but with no effect, or does it just disappear?

I ask because the neurotoxin specifically states that it does not count as a poison effect, but it does need to be converted from a poison to a neurotoxin via bleeding (if I am understanding the mechanics of the effects correctly).

So, is it possible to get a neurotoxin on a poison immune opponent?

MikeBeas

You cannot put neurotoxin on a poison immune, no.

SteelCurtainMUT

He just doesn’t have the ability accuracy reduction. So does good damage with neurotoxins, bleed’s & poison’s but what makes AA so special is his ability accuracy reduction. I’d still r4 him & wait to dupe him before an r5. But completely up to you, 4*’s are dying & don’t know where you are at as far as rosters go

No you cannot put neurotoxins on poison immunes(except for RH for some reason cause poisons show up for .1 if a second & can get lucky to turn them into neurotoxins) and they need to have at least 1 bleed on them before they can get a poison, so either immunities(especially bleed) makes him not the best.

Got it, thanks.
