Anyone duping 5s?

I am about to reach my limit on t2as and i got zero plans to use em. I got 20 unduped 5s and i am not going to invest any items in them beyond level 2 and only if there is a squad of 4s they have a decent synergy with. With the slim chance of duping 5s i would like to suggest that kabam add a 5 star awakening gem as a reward in some near future event. It seems pointless to me to invest the amount of items required to rank a 5 only to finally dupe someone i didn't raise...

Champs don’t have to be duped to be useful. Magik doesn’t need duped to be good on offense. Plenty of others like that

What champs are they?

28 and one dupe - moon knight - yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay (not). No one has been worthy of an R4 in my book until I pulled GP and Void, both within the last month.

As a result, I have 12.5 x T2A (not quite overflow as I'm working on #13) and waiting to R4 GP so I can finally finish 5.3 and get 5 more T2A.

As usual, the RNG is preventing both. I need 2K Skill T4CC to rank GP, yet I have pulled COSMIC T4CC this entire month (a few tech and mutant here and there), but honestly it has been cosmic every day from the uncanny event stuff and my uncollected daily crystals.

I've got 9 cosmic T4CC and growing... guess how many cosmic 5* champs of 28 I have? One. Groot.

Awakening a 5 star is not what makes it worth ranking higher than rank 2. How do you get to 20 5 star champs and still approach the game that way???

I duped my storm 2 times on my main, and a Drax on my alt.

I have a duped Magik (twice), Loki, starlord, hulk and iceman ✊

Dude I feel you. I have 3 r4s now with t2a full again and was forced to rank my first r4 by expiry which I did magik undupped. To echo what people say here though you don't need to dupe 5 star to rank them

Of my ranks I did Magik undupped, domino(got fed up of regular 5 star Crystal and got lucky here recently)undupped, and voodoo(awakened with mystic gem from act v exploration)

My duped 5 stars are Juggsx2,IMx2,HBx2 and of course IP.

DOKTOROKTOPUS

i got 18 and 3 dupes (morales, venom and mordo yesterday)

feeling lucky

rocket racoon ultron thor rags captain marvel duped

please Kabam gods dupe my blade void magik or x23

Ive been duping since day one...actually have 7 dupes in 21 champs!!

IcsGrec

Surely from 20 champs you must have at least one or 2 that are good without being duped.
I duped Symbyote Spider-Man twice, and Hyperion once (total of 21 champs).

So a r4 5 star star lord unduped (aside from the rediculous amounts of additional points) is better than a 5 star special level 99 star lord?

Dshu

There are 5* awakening gems already in place in act 5 and lol

Rap

I have some good champs...DV, Mondo, Mordo, Drax , KG and Groot, CW, Sentry, Hawkeye, BP, IP, YJ, Daredevil, DO...but the amount of supplies makes me feel like i am better off raising a max or unlocked 4 star champ rather than using them on a locked 5.

Rap

Yeah but you kinda need some unlocked 5z to get it.

crystaldsmith

I duped Mephisto but that's it. Yondu, Hawkeye, Hype, and Gulk I love and they aren't duped. They're worth it unduped. A lot of champs are.

Rap

Okay, limited resources and the choice between the same champ duped mulitple times and a locked 5 you would choose the locked five? (At least for some champs?) Cause everyone i have as a 5 i have as as an unlocked 4.

Rap

Simple question guys? Isn't it? Level 5 4 star Star Lord with a level 99 special or a 5 star Star Lord locked with no special? Which deserves the limited supplies i have available?

Rap

I have a 4 star CW level 4 with level 40 sig, and a locked 5 star CW...i feel like ranking the 4 will do more for me than the locked version. So???? Which gets the goods i have so painstakingly gathered?

djr17

In this particular case, neither CW, and if you can keep your combo, the 4* Star Lord will carry you.

Of your list, Hawkeye may be a good candidate for r4. Power control, good bleed. But then again, I wouldn't be in a hurry to rank any of them if I were in your situation..

Rap

We are in agreement dj. I have all but three of the god tier champs as 4 stars...unlocked...so there is little or no incentive to use goods on 5s. One thing i feel strongly they should do (and others have.brought this up in previous posts) reduce the number of shards for a 5 star crystal.

The_One

I have 3 t2a in my stash and I'm trying to decide whether to rank 4 GR, sentinel or Angela.
None are duped.

I have SL, AA and MODOK at rank 4.
I also have 3 T4 science cats, 2 t4 skill cats and 3 T4 mystic cats in overflow

A_Noob_Is1

Looks like we're in the same boat. I have 15 5 stars and max t2 alphas. None of them are what I need right now

SIlverProfessor

They really need to put in place another way to acquire a 5* gem without buying or doing rediculously difficult end game content. I don't want it handed out or given away, but earned without having to save up 2000+ units and or tons of revives/pots. Maybe the next celebrity challenge they could make a tick more difficult for an exploration reward or a 5* ag.

Jaded

48 5* and 16 dupes/awakened. Including multiple dupes on champs like rhino, ip, storm, Loki etc...

Mr_Platypus

You don’t need a champ to be awakened just to rank them up.
Especially when they’re good unduped and T2a is expiring.

I took hyperion to 5/65 unduped last week because of expiring T2a and that being my only useful rank up, I’ll get him awakened one day, could do it now if I used my generic gem, but no need to rush and does his job well enough as is

Spurgeon14

As others have indicated, there are some champs that are worth taking up to rank 4 unawakened. I took up Sparky, Gwenpool, Magik, and Nightcrawler to Rank 4 before they were awakened and I don't regret it. There are a decent amount of 5* worth R4 whether awakened or not, but ultimately the choice is yours.

I have recently Morningstar, my 5* pulls have been almost have dupe half new.
