I’m on 5.2.4 and want to get Uncollected so I can get 6* shards. I’ll post my roster in the comments in a seconds, but I wanted to know who I should r5 with that in mind. I doubt I will add more sigs to Medusa because I’ll be using her in AQ, not AWD. Who is the best option for the rest of Act 5.2?

Also, I’m more stuck on 5.2.4(massochism). I have some experience with bane, so I’m not too worried about that. Keep in mind LC is amazing for bane.
I was genuinely shocked at how useful my 5/50 Thor was in 5.2.4...his damage completely outpaced the effects of masochism.
This before or after his nerf? I heard it's not even close after the nerf...I have one duped, but don't use him
After the nerf. (Uncollected/Act 5 did not exist before the nerf)
He is nothing like he was before 12.0....but he is still really good. Though I should point out I have him at sig 99.
2. every bleed you place on the opponent lowers their tenacity to shrug debuffs
3. best of all majority of his dps comes from DOT and thus the enemy does not gain as much power.
1. Helps in all subchapters/chapters obviously
2. This really helps with the collector, you can pull a good run with AA on him after you stack a couple bleeds (you can even parry him and he won't shrug it).
3. This really helps with bane because you never really need to worry about pushing close to sp3 and having to hit the opponent to transfer the bane.
I do not know why noone had mentioned AA. Pay attention or don't hammer but from someone who litterally had all your available champs and more while 100%ing 5.2 I assure you the best champ you have is AA overall.
In terms of effectiveness against the collector he is at the minimum as useful as a DUPED hulk (do not even bother with the unduped), and LC.
The best champ you do not have is stark spidey (yes his evade chance gets lowered the fight goes on but between your evades+ auto trust me you can solo him). Second best is hyperion because you CAN gain furies without parrying (bait heavy>dashback>heavy back at him) and fire off at least 1 sp2 before he is even at one bar of power (stick the stun on him and its gg collector).
An ideal team for collector with your roster would be:
AA + LC your main collector killers
Medusa (if you take a path with SW on it, if not bring thor for a third collector option)
DV + wolvie as your path runners
W.T.A.B.E.E.? FFS.
