**Known AQ Bug**
We are aware that some alliances encountered a bug during this last AQ that would not allow them to start maps on certain days. We know this has impacted your rewards.
We have been looking into the cause of the problem and once we have resolved it we will explore how to make things right for the impacted alliances. We will provide any additional communication in

this thread.

    I do agree that Apocalypse should be tuned down but he is still not impossible to deal with, i soloed Map 7 Apocalypse boss with Tigra and you can use champs like Void or Guillotine 2099 to reverse his regen. With some practice you can dex both of his specials and beat him with anyone although a solo will be difficult with most champions

    Makes me want Tigra. Nice showcase, but I would assume you would need to be boosted to get a solo after today

    Most likely yes but you don't need to solo him, if you time out you can just go back in and finish him as you don't need to parry or block with her, don't even need to heal up

    How does the corvus timeout strategy even work on apocalypse?

    I think wno is alluding to the skill leevl of map 7 alliances
    It's more that it's become damn near impossible to even play with alliances running map 7 bc every BG is setup for basically everyone to have corvus. Either multiple people have to have their paths changed to accommodate one person who doesn't want to bring corvus or you have to suck it up.

    I'm going with just not even messing with it currently as it doesn't even matter with the current content direction.


    Then you also have entire alliances that would never even get through the map without the timeouts still which I don't like at all but it is what it is.

    Basically I think AQ needs some serious attention if they truly want to get people away from the current joke of a situation we have with map 7
    Had the exact opposite effect in our m7 ally. In the Doom AQ season maybe 2 people in my bg had a CG because the lanes needed it. Not for timeouts, but rather because of the champs/nodes. By day 3 of Apoc AQ map, 60% of the ally had cg in their lineup to help with Apoc timeouts.

    Can't say I've seen that before. Certainly possible but far from the norm from any alliance I've spoken with

    Why not just push as far as you can?
    Do you need to complete it each and every day?

    If y’all all ko y’all ko
    Get as many points as y’all can those map crystals pretty garbage anyway

    Sometimes people forget there's levels to this game.

    Not everyones AQ looks the same, Map 5 with 7k prestige is very different from Map 5 with 10.4k prestige. Not to mention the gargantuan task that is Map 7, with path requirements and such.

    Some people need to look besides their own experience and understand that a medium-high, to higher levels of alliances will have a lot of trouble with this AQ boss, since he's not only challenging, but has very niche counters.

    The game is also not running very good, so that complicates things further.

    This is an incredibly widespread misunderstanding about the game in general.

    It makes recruiting a nightmare when you have to explain to some hotshot map 5 boss killer in a 5K prestige alliance that he’d likely time out trying to kill a map 5 boss in a 10K alliance.

    All maps of the same number are not alike.

    Good showcase, and remember to the people who are looking at the solo you dont have to solo him u have alliance members im pretty sure 30 champs should be able to beat 1 apocolypse

    He’s not difficult.

    I've nuked him down with CMM just fine. She isn't the most ideal champ though. It seems like Warlock would handle him just fine though..

    I don't know about map 6 or 7 guys but in map 5 epic mode CMM just thrash that Apocalypse.
