Hey everyone, back again with another guide.
After starting my first path on LoL and then 100%ing it in 4 days just over a month ago, I've been saving for the Abyss since.
(See my previous guide here: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/180691/labyrinth-100-as-a-f2p-from-first-path-to-100-in-4-days-a-comprehensive-guide-w-aegon-data#latest )
This is supposed to be a comprehensive guide for Path 1 (Easy) so you know exactly what to expect in terms of resources and time taken, and hopefully you can do it too!
For Path 1 there are 20 bosses:
Item Usage
7852 units started
4657 units finished
I started with 18 L1 Revives in Stash and only 2 L2's so a lot of units wasted on revives
Farmed a lot of L3's in RoL and used all my Love Potions so approx the equivalent of 150 L3 potions
Team:
5/65 Aegon 200
5/65 Void 200
5/65 Sym Sup 120
5/65 Nick Fury 10
4* Quake for 3 evade charges (keep Fury alive)
Mastery Highlights:
5/5 Deep Wounds for Aegon and Nick Fury
Turned off suicides this time (kept them on in LoL) as I'm not just using Aegon anymore
5/5 Limber - You can sometimes eat a special and be alive and recover from the stun
3/3 Courage and 2/5 Assassin
1/5 Unfazed
3/5 Mystic Dispersion
General Tips:
- I try taking breaks in between fights but it's hard to do so when you have 3 boosts running that is why I stretched it across the day, I feel like this helped avoid making more mistakes and didn't cause my thumb to fall off
- Doing 100% LoL really helps you out with this and I think I learned a lot from there on how to tackle this
Individual Fight Guides:
Thing
Build your combo and by the end of the fight you will be at about 550 combo with Aegon, quit out as you run out of your Skirmish Charges. I held an Sp3 all the time so if I messed up his rocked stacks, I could stun and get him back to a bar of power with 15 stacks.
Omega Red
Do one combo and maybe a hit after and then dash back, if you get to 10 spores it's about 1.3k per tick.
He plays very aggressively so keep baiting those Sp1s with Aegon and you will just reach 999 god combo here.
He also evades A LOT as he's a Mutant vs a Skill so keep paying attention to your combos
Quake
Chunky opp at 5.7mil, straightforward with Aegon, if she has a charge on you when it's about to expire make sure you're attacking/save your sp3 for it so you don't get stunned.
Medusa
Sym Sup shreds this, her AI is passive as and her long specials can ruin your Specials rhythm with Sym Sup but at one point I had 15 bleed stacks on her.
Mephisto
Void makes easy work of this and you I had 2 Fear of the Void's active for a couple combos every minute or so. The first minute is the only one you have pay attention to before you get petrifies as he gains power passively.
Captain Marvel Movie
Well, she as infamous as everyone says, after using a couple team revives to see who was best Sym Sup and Fury could only get so much damage in so Aegon Heavy style was most effective. Bait an Sp1 of hers before the first power flood and then you can nuke into her in the corner and chain a couple specials (sp2 with the furies after her getting hit was 7.3k bleed per tick) before she gets to her Sp3, This is the fight to rainbow boost, using your 1hr ones you have saved. I used ONE more revive on the Collector fight than this one (19 revives - technically 11 since two of them were Team Revives) she was that horrible for me without Doom.
Ghost
A Ghost circus indeed as you spend more time watching her backflip then attacking her, watch your power and make sure she uses her special before you hit every multiple of 10, slow fight you can only combo and a half before making her special. Aggressive AI helps you bait her out atleast.
Ironman IW
Same node on Ghost so the first 85% are easy but it really gets painful on the last 15%. I think it helps doing the 6.3 so you can get over the fear of fighting such stacked versions of him but you are constantly dodging Sp2s. It's important to remember with Aegon that a critical hit can you still be achieved by hitting into blocks to gain true accuracy and fail his autoblocks.
Joe Fixit
Easy with Aegon/any champ, quit if he rolls Hearts and that's it. He gains power flood over time so watch that too.
Mordo
Same node on Mephisto, Void makes easy work of this and a petrify is all you need at the start and you shouldn't die for the rest of the fight til your charges run out. His power gain reverses it a lot, not too bad of a fight at all. Getting started is the hardest part as he is so passive and adding salt to the wound he says "Fight Me Coward" constantly while he holds block stealing your freakin Skirmish Charges
Venom the Duck
Sym Sup is awesome for this, really easy to get the Sp3 and Sp2 spam cycles going - didn't have to worry about regen since I was staggering so much.
Howard the Duck
Straightforward Aegon/anyone fight - stun at 60% and 30% to avoid Regen or Thunderquack
Hyperion/The Champion
Both done with Sym Sup, but harder to do as they don't have as many buffs as VTD (especially Hyperion) so you can't really Sp3 and Sp2 cycle much. I think this is where only 3/5 Mystic Dispersion would hurt me and definitely slowed down the fights for me.
Red Cyclops
Actually found this one fun, got into really good rhythms and hitting 200 combos sometimes with Aegon. If you parry you take zero block damage but if you mistime the parry you take quite some damage so heal up for this one. The node helps with the yellow dex symbol telling you to dex it the green icon is for parry.
Loki
Play aggressive and only Sp2 with Aegon right when you're about to hit your Sp3 as he drains your power. Keep in mind that while you're throwing your special you are losing power which will most likely kill you ensure you're much over a bar.
Aegon
Straightforward Aegon/anyone fight, nothing to say lol
Invisible Woman
This fight hurts your thumb getting through her shields, used Nick Fury which worked a treat. I watched Seatin's livestream and saw IW regened 60% health when he placed multiple internal bleeds on her so I chose not to place more than one. No idea how the interaction works so if anyone plays IW insight would be greatly appreciated.
Cull Obsidian
Used Sym Sup and baited Sp1's to nullify 1%, not as effective to cheese with Doom though and treated it as a normal fight basically.
The Collector
Finally made it here and was so excited, the first 20% are really easy and only used about 1 or 2 revives, but as you get to about 60% it's all about holding your heavy and just nuking into him with your 6+ furies and chipping away. I killed off the Fury evade synergy for this one so you go straight into heavy baiting and going nuts.
Well that's it ! Thank you for reading and I hope more players that aren't right at the top of the endgame give it a go! (I've never been above Gold 1). Special shoutout to Seatin, Lagacy and @jnikolas92 for your guides! Extremely helpful for me so give them a look too.

My best team to go for is below
Aegon 5* sig 200
Void 5* sig 160
Corvus 6* unduped
Sym supreme 6* unduped
Hemdall 5*
Put at least 3 points in MYSTIC DISPERSION to make SS more effective
I'm not too sure on Corvus - but I understand if you don't have N.Fury
depends on if he's duped and how well you play. May search some videos on yt. I'd say about 20 minutes. Also you want to play slower to deal more passive damage. Took me about 4-5 revives with not duped boosted r2 6*
However, with Void in these long fight scenarios, you always have 1 Fear of the Void active which deals a lot more damage and if you play aggressively (which you're able to in this fight) you can get 2 FOV's up at the same time - it's up to you in how you want play it because playing passively and letting the debuffs do the damage is more efficient, I just suck at playing like that
Looks like torch isn't absolutely needed then!
