EQ Adaptoid - Not tha bad

First thing i did after the start of this month's EQ was looking on this forum and read how ppl felt about new champs. Tbh it really scared me reading about the difficulty of the Adaptoid boss. This made me come prepared with 15 revives and a ton load of potions (and 700 units too just to be safe).
I used a team of 5/50 Medusa duped, 4/40 AA unduped, 3/45 Hulk unduped, 3/45 Starky unduped and 4/40 Blade unduped. I didn't use Ronan having him as a 2* at lv1 atm.
Surprisingly i took down Adaptoid on Master difficulty using only 4 revives and 27 small potions. I say surprisingly cuz last month i struggled more on YJ where it wasn't supposed to use specials. I remember using 12 revives on him the first time (yeah...i'm not that skilled if you're wondering).
So long story short : Adaptoid boss was difficult but doable. For the first time i understood that not all content is meant for everyone. If i had a weaker roaster i wouldn't have even tried it (like i didn't try the Gully boss months back). Unfortunately this forum keeps filling with posts about nerfing bosses and game modes.
Master difficulty is not meant for everyone. If you completed it last month doesn't mean you can do it this month too.
Ps: No, i haven't tried Uncollected. I'm not uncollected yet :)
Cheers!

    Sometimes things are really hard because people just need to figure out the right champs, or change up their fighting strategy. Go-to champs, or highest rank champs, aren't always the answer.

    Great job on beating him without Ronan, that's a lot harder.

    I think ur comment "____ is not meant for everyone " pretty much sums it up. I'm uncollected and even I can't do 100% uncollected every month. That's just how it is, u do the best u can and go as far as u can while u build up ur roster and get better.

    A lot of people are used to faceroll the fights. Just put in your best 5 and parry/strike back.
    The past few months the fights have changed a lot, especially with some of the new champs (IMIW, Domino, Hydra Adaptoid, etc).
    This is a new challenge which not everyone can undertake, as many don't know how to fight without parry (against Domino), and a lot don't know what the other champs abilities (besides the 15-20 they use).

    I beat the adaptoid on master with a 3/45 Hyperion like it was a piece of cardboard.
    When I rerun the quest for exploration I`ll try some other champs, like Magik, Voodoo or Loki, even though they are just 3/30 ..

    Haven't tried Uncollected yet. Didn't have time for it :smile:
