If your having a hard time then your not ready, definitely max limber for that Electra, also try using bpcw, both caps, there are so many options to use now an they have made it even easier for you guys since 12.0. an no I didn't do it when pb teams were around. I did it with r4 3* an my only r3 4* mags.
I completed act 4 long ago but started exploring it after 100% completing 5.1. Except the regenerating Maestro Act 4 is totally doable with 3*s (that magneto is hard, I have fought him recently and you would need someone who can reduce defensive ability). Even Maestro is doable with 3*s if you have the right 3*s, in my experience going in with great 3 stars is much better than going in with average 4 stars. I have never spent money on this game and Im done with Act 5.2 (only completion) even there if you just grind arena and save units/potions/revives then it's doable without spending any money.
Best of luck, you can totally do it buddy!
5.2 is doable without spending?
What did you save up?
By "without spending", that only means "not spending money". Yes, 5.2 is definitely doable without spending money, but the chances that you may need to use potions or spend units that you have grinded from the arena to buy potions are pretty high.
I have already 100% 5.2 without spending any money, pretty satisfied really. I spent 300 units on 3 team revives to explore the final quest, since I already had a ton of free crystals and saved up potions. Didn't use any potions from 5.2.1 - 5.2.5, with an exception of 5.2.4's caltrops path where I used 3 lvl 1 revives and a few health potions. 5.2.6 I used 1 team revive and 2-3 single revives each time to explore since the Collector is pretty much impossible to kill in a single fight.

So yea, it's very much doable without money.
Yeah he is literally impossible to beat without items. You did it with so few items?
Should probably youtube it since you better than anyone else in the game.
Best counter for thorns? Give Magneto "unavoidable" damage right back with bleed. Gwenpool will stack a half dozen bleeds in no time. Most fights with her in AQ are done in under 25 hits.
5* R4 Magik did most of the work. Other parts of my team are my 5* iron man, my 4* Winter Soldier, my 4* Thor and my 4* CAWWII (replaced with Ronan for the villians path, solely used for abomination)
I don't know, that's still 8 revives (technically, since a team revive is 5), and that's on average, not every time. The worst runs I've done cost me up to 2 team revives, those are either if I screw up completely or the collector instantly pops his special 1 as soon as he gets it. One of my runs I managed to do it with 1 team revive, while most of my runs I did it with 1 team revive and 2-4 single lvl 1 or 2 revives, those single revives used on Magik.

Lol nah, I'm sure The Analyser has done it with fewer items.
Just checked, he beat the collector with a team revive and 1 single revive, and he used the team revive with guilly still up, so that's 4 revives. 4+1 = 5, he's better lol.
Finally got around to 100% act 4 2 weeks ago, that Elektra is a pain I agree, but is easily countered with the right champs.
I used my rogue with max limber, why? Because she is able to shrug off almost any stun before the debuff symbol even appears so you don't get wrecked.
Groot would also work for the same reason and mordo is a bit hit and miss as if Elektra stuns you and launches a special attack he won't astral evade and you'll probably die.
After seeing how much you've claimed to spend without finishing act 4 I very much doubt you're even close to as skilled as you claim (I didn't spend a penny on revives/potions and 90% of units spent were on refills and I'm far from an amazing player). But on the off chance you are as good as you claim, then a 3* rogue (at a push, groot) will work perfectly fine.
The Collector is mostly a luck based fight rather than a skilled fight, though it still does take skill to make sure you don't get bane in the first place. Even with a power drain champ, it can only work for so long before he reduces yourability accuracy to too low a number for it to trigger.
Most of the time I just got lucky and he saves till his special 2 and 3. If he saves till later specials, that's a few extra thousand damage to him for me, which is why it's kind of luck, because if he pops his special 1 early, that's pretty much an instant KO when he is <50% health.
It's really just bane and his unblockable specials that are the problem here.

By the way, I forgot to mention, but there's a daredevil somewhere in Act 5 Chapter 1 that has the "7% chance to evade and stun opponent" node, which is the one Elektra has (it's called mesmerise I think)
Just look out for him if you are doing Act 5, and do the same strategy you just did (rogue with limber, groot with limber, or Mordo).
Dex, are you serious? I should run a Mordo or Groot in that chapter in act 4? That's your advice?
Maybe Mordo I guess, I didn't think about that but Groot would get pummeled either way. I'll try it. I honestly don't think it will work, how did you tackle it without a **** ton of units?
Impossible. Collector a unit king. I'm not going down that road yet. Analyzer the best player I've ever seen.
He needed og vision and intercepted like crazy. Most don't have og vision.

Unit King, fitting name to say the least haha.
Yea don't rush it, you need insane skill and luck to kill him with minimal potion usage/unit usage.
Don't button mash against Elektra. Only do MM combos and you'll rarely see her evade (if at all). You don't need any special champs/mastery setup with this strategy either
P.S. Maxing limber doesn't work (unless you're using Groot/Rogue/Karnak) since most of the time, she attacks back before you can recover from the stun

Decent rewards and not too bad.
5.2 is a joke
Best of luck, you can totally do it buddy!

Congrats on exploring Act 4!
Rogue works too against that Electra
He needed og vision and intercepted like crazy. Most don't have og vision.

Her heavy reaches pretty far.
And it's Nightcrawler. At least I'm done Iceman line though.
Good luck! Thank god he ain't on stun immune, just keep parrying and you should be fine
