Medusa also has Bleed. You get that armor shatter up, parry heavy, get crits, pop off an sp2. Destroys Robots, doesn’t require being close to the opponent to do DOT damage.
My problem with Aarkus is the need to be so close. Medusa just needs to get hits and apply armor breaks for what she needs, Aarkus needs to be right next to the opponent. Dexterity takes away the DOT damage and resets the timer on the armor break.
Dexing something as simple as Winter Soldier’s sp1 will reset those timers, and it’s frustrating to be so close to another armor break, then dexing a special, then realizing that you’ve just reset the armor break timer.

Or you could use a sp3 and not worry about having to breathe the same air as your opponent. It's not even hard to build to his specials with 5 power gain buffs
Vision Aarkus is my choice for Cosmic-Class Anti-Robots and you cannot compare without at least considering the powerful Synergy Bonuses with Ice-Man and Mysterio prolonging Ability duration by 2 seconds.
