Kabam really gave us harder opponents than Act 6 and called it a day

Comments

To all guys who are hard on the OP. His team actually is a team an uncollected player would have. When we became Uncollected we had maxed 4 stars and maybe 2 or 3 rank 4 5 stars if you were in a top alliance, or became uncollected later. Epic is unlocked at uncollected. The opponents should be act 5 level. 20k PI max. With exception of the boss.
I`m cavalier myself so have no problem with this content. But it is becoming more and more obvious they are using epic/uncollected to cater to cavalier players, and leave uncollected players in a black spot, where they can only complete master difficulty, and not the next level up.
Unless you have a stacked roster of r4 5* or above this event quest is very bad.

Being able to enter content does not mean you automatically have a right to beat it. Even before uncollected EQ existed there were plenty of master EQ I couldn't beat or at least explore. I accepted the fact that it was just too hard and moved on. The same goes for the challenge. There were some of those I either didn't beat at all or had an incredibly hard time doing so. I didn't come here ranting about that not being fair I just keep going until they started getting easier and easier for me. That's just how games like this work

Thanks_D19

Pro tip I just learned in labs, I’d the mystic path had a magik on it no matter what don’t take it, I did it because I wanted science fights and her limbo did 1.7k damage per second when she had class disadvantage

I'm not being hard on OP because his team isn't enough. His team is more than enough for the quest.

However, I was being hard on OP because of the decisions they made. Had they read the abilities of the champs they faced and had they understood how their champions worked as well, they would've had no problem breezing through that Aarkus fight. Choices were made...

Choices are important. Like Tatianna said...

Rolls doesn't work. I mean... This i managed. But in the next one it was rage and biohazard.
Completely got ruined. Tried to roll but freezburn came in.. it was wierd.

Mauled

The only issue I have is that the reroll seems to be pointless. I got masochism and spite, rerolled it and it gave me spite and masochism. Rerolled again and masochism and spite.

I mean I just used ghost but still...

Also Tigra’s animations trip me out. I swear her sp2 animation is 3 screens long with some weird timing to dex.

Modok lab or whatever it’s called isn’t harder than act 6 but the rewards suck for the difficulty level

Denslo500

You guys obviously have a lot of max'd 5 star champs and can have custom teams for every situation.
That takes a LOT of resources and RNG luck.

The OP is not stupid or unskilled, he's done Cavalier difficulty with a relatively weak roster.

I encourage you to stop attacking up and coming players and focus on the real problem
Kabam is refusing to provide a Cavalier level difficulty.
Endgamers deserve appropriate content.
Kabam keeps placating Endgamers with Variants, and Endgamers keep accepting it.
Endgamers have even accepted 100%ing Act 6 and STILL not being able to Rank 5 a 6 star.

Mcord11758

Yes imo if you can’t field a full team of diverse r5 or at least r4 you shouldn’t be doing epic, but epics rewards would still suck if given for master difficulty

First of all, they're working on a CavEQ.

Second, we shouldn't be able to R5 and 6* yet. That would mean even harder quests, and that would be chaos.

1) they have been "working" on CavEQ for at least a year. They are either incompetent or just lying to us.

2) Endgamers are BEGGING for harder content. There are a lot of posts complaining about how easy the EQ is every month.

So, you think it's that easy huh?

GroundedWisdom

Before y’all start going on about what it should be maybe you should compare it to what it was.

Last iteration of labs, iirc.

Had the same response from me last time.

GroundedWisdom

There's absolutely no reason to jack the PI up that much for a Daily Quest with random Buffs. Not for a demographic that has everyone from Uncollected to End-Game.

LeNoirFaineant

The side quest will cost me zero items. Act six cost me many items.

Cute picture but it isn't true. The side quest will cost me zero items. Act 6 cost me many items. The side quest is much easier.

LeNoirFaineant

I think a problem that’s occurring now is kabam is trying to balance rewards between cavalier (and above) players and uncollected players which obviously leads to a middle ground difficulty that will be too easy for endgame players and possibly too difficult for new uncollected played

People have complained that the labs are too hard every time they have come out, even when Cavalier didn't exist.

Greekhit

Endgamers are BEGGING for harder content. There are a lot of posts complaining about how easy the EQ is every month.

And the developers gave the people a side quest that is Cavalier difficultly (a bit harder tbh) 🤣.
I don’t blame the newer uncollected (or even Cavalier) players for complaining. They are used to tackle all side quests till now and they expected that they would be able to tackle this too. I even have a challenge with a full 5/65 god tier team, difficulty is significantly higher than any prior side quest.

difficulty is significantly higher than any prior side quest.

This has been said every time the labs have come out. It isn't a cavalier difficulty side quest, it's just the labs.

My second account is only Uncollected and can do Epic side quests, although admittedly it is quite a bit harder. But it isn't impossible or exclusive. Regardless, there's no reason to believe that just because Epic is *unlocked* with Uncollected that all Uncollected players should expect Epic difficulty to be tuned for them to be able to accomplish it easily. That implies there's no progress to be made after achieving Uncollected status. Heck, 5.3 is also technically unlocked by becoming Uncollected (as it requires 5.2 completion) but there's no specific reason why 5.3 should be tuned to have identical difficulty to 5.2, which would be the only way completing 5.2 guaranteed being able to do 5.3.

Epic is not the *reward* for becoming Uncollected, Epic is one of the next challenges after becoming Uncollected.

So that Guillotine is, I believe, the first fight on the far right path of 6.2.1. That path has Sadist (+50% attack per debuff on defender) incoming from Ebony, plus Lifecycle globally, plus:

Guillotine with Spectre
Proxima with enhanced special 1
Corvus with unblockable finale
Cull with Titan's favor and Titanic Conquest
Ebony Maw with Critical setup and Faltering Mind

Then you have to go through the Dormammu with Burden of Might, Dismay, and Soft Guard, before reaching the SS boss with Prey on the Weak, Pilfer, Force of Will, and Opportunist.

You're comparing the first, and possibly easiest fight in 6.2.1 against I think the second to last fight on an Island path before the boss, and they do seem to scale up from first to last. A better comparison might be that Corvus with Unblockable finale and Lifecycle against that Aarkus. I don't think the 6.2.1 path you picked is actually significantly easier than the typical Island path.

GroundedWisdom

Yes, while I have an issue with the inconsistency of Epic, I should point out I don't agree that it's as hard as Act 6.

You have 2 4 stars, maybe you should stick with master difficulty.

Panchulon21

Don’t want to be a troll but that’s a solo with Claire lol.

Notsavage19

Act 6 opponents are way more harder to fight against than opponents in Modok's Lab.
And you are comparing 2x scenarios with 2x different champions with different nodes. What's your point with that?
Mate look at the attack rating on that Vision Aarkus the man chews through my block
Then don't block LMAO.
What kind of solution is that? This is a SIDE EVENT
You're playing on Epic difficulty. If you can't reliably intercept, then that's on you. It doesn't matter if it's a side event or not. It's still the highest difficulty, so complaining about the content being "too difficult" when it can be completed with some skill just shows your work ethic.

It ain't cute on you.
This is a bad and stupid take. KABAM HAD ALREADY ADMITTED THEY NEED TO QUIT MAKING AREAS WHERE YOU HAVE TO INTERCEPT CONSTANTLY!!! As anything other than a very OCCASIONAL thing.

Exactly. It's occasional. But the OP was complaining that Aarkus demolished him through his block. The solution clearly, would be to block less and rely on baiting heavies, and backdraft/running intercepts. Why is this a "bad and stupid take"? Intercepting is a needed skill later on in the game's content. Not learning how to intercept is just...foolish.
