    Apocalypse. That sp3's animation combined with 4 permanent buffs and the fact that he's not a dud? Perfect champion

    I only have Prof X as a 4-star but this is what I've gathered so far
    Prof X is a good attacker w/ synergies that make his Mutants better defenders
    Apocalypse is a good defender w/ synergies that make his Horsemen* OP attackers
    Having said that
    Theoretically speaking I would take Apocalypse over Prof X
    XL champ, grows in size with each Genetic Code (how cool is that)
    Large health pool, and regen
    Access to a ton of debuffs which can last indefinitely
    Can develop debuff immunity
    Can stun opponent when blocking which can be SO useful
    Decent damage output
    Simple rotation

    I have both. First to clarify misinformation above. None of the synergies in this game work on defense/defenders. Both are great champions. As attackers i give an overall edge to apoc for his utility, ease of play, and less time to ramp up (1 fight vs 3). However, once ramped up, prof x can deal insane damage. For synergies, prof is going to help your entire mutant team vs apoc will make one mutant just crazy on your team. You have to remember prof x is going to give u 100% extra damage to entire team on sps vs apoc giving 50% to 1 guy. Also attacking ability acc inc only effects a few champs ie wolverine and aa. However, if it storm, cable, wolverine, gambit, and aa they become really insanely good with apoc ( but only 1 per quest). If your primary mutant is col, domino, havok id stick with prof x. Also prof x side synergies with poison resistance with col or wolverine(if run suicides), power gain ( aa), and mental block (saves u alot of damage in beginning of fights with mags and ice) are super helpful. So I would say with synergies depends on who you like to run for which ones better.

    This is what happens when you read one word and jump to conclusions instead of reading and absorbing what I said.
    I didn't say Prof X's synergies work on defense / defenders. I said they make mutants better defenders.
    Poison resistance
    Revive when KO'd
    Mental barrier
    Would all make mutants better defenders

    Generally when we talk about defenders it means AW defense, not defensive abilities while attacking.

    Ok fine I get your point. But to let you know when you say defenders in this game everyone assumes and usually uses that term for war defense.

    Definitely professor x. You know what's even better. 2 professor X's. I got a 5 star and 3 star prof x. I ramp up my 5 prof x to 4 cerebro plus one more cerebro from my 3 star. 5 cerebro charges. That's 125% special damage per mutant.

    I have Apoc as a 3*, he's a good champion and I used him on the evade path in v4 and he worked wonders for that.

    But Professor X looks like he does more, so I'd rather have him.

    Prof x doesn’t just make mutants better. He also makes X-men better, especially Phoenix but also Magik.

    I think apoc is better, but I think Xavier looks more fun to play.
  • Thicco_ModeThicco_Mode Member Posts: 8,852 ★★★★★
    I feel like apoc will have more use but prof x has cool numbers
  • Sunny2Sunny2 Member Posts: 183 ★★
    Prof x is more tricky to play with and if you are not careful can lose your rampup in a fight and have to start from beginning. I havent thought of 2 prof x but now want to try it lol. On a similar note I am wondering if I bring 2 apoxs does that mean i can make 2 mutants horseman?

    Hey just looked it into it cuz you had me curious. Unfortunately prof x syngergy doesn't stack so you shouldn't be getting over 100% if you bring 2.
