Is a 4 star ronan worthy of class ag?

Im thinking since so many of these bosses in the new spotlight quests have so many buffs on them, it would be safer to use ronan because of his stuns.
Your thoughts?

If you happen to be facing buff heavy champs, then yes.

Bad when facing champs on stun immune nodes.

The thing about Ronan is that most of the time whenever there is content that can easily be cleared by him you would be just as well off using a 2* or 3*. Taking this month's EQ for example, I know of players that can easily clear the bosses with 3* awakened Ronan. I would argue that it would not be wise to awaken a 4* Ronan because for the most part a 3* Ronan will work for you just as well.

why not? you can get a 4* gem in every challenge, besides a 4* ronan is a cool trophy champ

50/50 here! Wow!

Ronan chain stun is good counter to Hydra adaptoid

Assuming you don’t have someone better (Medusa for example) I think Ronan is worth it, especially this month.

Depends on who your other cosmics are. Definitely not worth generic.

He is terrible without his sig and you aint pulling him from a crystal anytime soon so I say he is worth a class gem.

He's totally worth it. Several of the bosses/minibosses for recent Event quests are easy meat - BPCW in Chadwick's challenge; Sabretooth in his monthly event, etc. So many buff-heavy champs, wherever you meet them.

Not everyone has Magik/Voodoo; and since Ronan gets his Sig bonus on every single attack; doesn't rely on Poison, has a 100% Stun chance, and causes True damage on his SP1 (used to say this on his SP2 as well - what happened?), he can do things they can't. Voodoo can only turn buffs to poison once; Ronan can power up on them indefinitely. He has real value as part of a well-rounded team.

I'd also suggest that you get more out of Ronan as a mid-level player than as a very highly skilled one. As an example: I'm okay at skills like intercepting and baiting; but mediocre at dexterity - I'll very rarely be able to take advantage of Proxima's Sig as I rarely get a combo over 100. She's therefore more valuable to a more skilled player than me. Ronan is very easy to use; and can help you clear some content; although probably not end-game/LOL. He helped me clearing events, exploring Act 4 and getting Uncollected. So I'd definitely spend a class gem on him (I already did!) - but probably not a generic one.

Fair point. The only reason I used one on my 4* Ronan a while back was to have a step up in challenger rating. It may have only had a minuscule effect, but for the content you would use him for (typically more advanced content), it helps that he doesn’t get creamed quite as much taking Block/parry damage.

On a general note, what’s with the flag on my initial post? Fits neither the spam nor abuse parameters. Not saying you flagged it @Werewrym, just a general question...

Ok yeah I can see that. I honestly have never fully understood challenger rating because I can never notice the difference. I can see wanting a Ronan with a bit more health to survive block damage and such.

And no I didn't flag your post... probably one of the forum trolls. I get flags all the time on completely constructive posts.

Seriously? In 2500 hits? Please awaken your 4* Ronan. Every uncollected and master quest since forever has made him incredibly useful. 100% uncollected on day 1 with my 4* rank 4 Ronan sig 40

No. You will get more more in the long run out of saving it for a great champ vs. one with a nichey ability that you only break out once in a while. As your roster grows you will have plenty of champs to tackle tricky content.
