Vivified Act 6 is such a challenge

H3neRyH3neRy Posts: 309 ★★★
While exploring act 6 i was faced with so many challenging tasks but none compares to this lane. Now I know this act has been nerfed in terms of attack but man is it still hard. (Not complaining)

If you don't have ghost+hood you are gonna be baiting 50 specials a fight. I don't have Ghost so I used the Munash method of Guillotine 2099 assault pre fight, combined with Mr. Fantastic power sting synergies. (Still not complaining)

It works like a charm until you get to Ms Elsa bloodstone whose SP2 despite the nerf hits insanely hard . Even after weakness placed by Mr. Fantastic she does 15 to 20 % through the block. (Complaining maybe just a little )

So what was the point of this post? I want act 6 to be further nerfed? NO.

A lot of players still haven't explored act 6 and whether they like it or not the rewards offered by it are extremely valuable in terms of progression. So sooner or later you'll have to explore it. (Just a suggestion)

This post is my personal experience of this path and since there are so many hard paths like this in act 6 be prepared guys cause they have nerfed act 6 but if you haven't already explored it you'll find it extremely challenging.(WhoTheFAsked? nobody)

Good day everyone.

    Yes. While attempting 6.4.5 completion, I tried that path and it's a massive pain.

    See that's what I mean, people trying to explore act 6 beware of this path in particular.

    I think that depends on your roster, I took that path in my act 6 completion journey (after nerf, though) because I considered it to be the easiest for me, and apoc did a great job clearing the entire lane by himself ^_^

    Really Apoc? If you don't mind can you share how you got past the power gain and masochism. I may pull him in the near future.

    Act6 despite the attack values nerf is still a huge pain.
    This is mainly because of the too many bs nodes combinations.
    I don’t know how healthy for the game is long term, having a main story content exploration, basically locked behind Quake/Ghost use.
    Surely certain fights and quests in Act6 need revisit.
    Personally, I found very poor and lazy Kabam’s take on Act6 to simply reduce attack values and boss fights.
    They should have done more extended changes (not necessarily nerfs) in particular fights and quests.

    Yeah act 6 is what it is but i think Kabam made it pretty clear that story content won't be like it anymore that's why act 7 or book 2 was really fair in my opinion.

    one of apoc's abilities reduce the opponent's purify's ability accuracy by 100%, preventing masochism from purifing debuffs. You can't do anything about the increased power gain, but I didn't find it too stressful, just take it slowly and use your debuffs to kill your opponents ^_^
    Wow thanks for the insight, I'll keep it in mind.

    I did fine till elsa and used maybe 2 revives there. Didn't care too much because I was pushing exploration. Used ghost +hood .

    Ghost is the answer here, or evading her sp2.

    I think I did the entire path with stark spidey, Mr fantastic and she hulk synergy. You only need to parry once since the 200% combat power rate means they are basically always above 1 bar of power. You can bait a special and 3 or 4 hits gets them above 1 bar again. Repeat that again and again. If you place a taunt they get the power sting which does good damage if you have 10 poise charges. If you do trigger masochism from taunt, simply parry them to place additional power stings.
    Only problem fight is invisible woman.

    Couldn't agree with you more.

    Planning to use Omega Red for it on mini account ... hit them only to refresh degen .. Punisher 99 and Longshot also look decent options.

    I think I used Magik (you can powerlock) + ghost/hood on main account.

    Wish I had Magik one of those unfortunate souls that cannot pull her at all. I Suck at ghost gameplay so that was not an option for me

    I do remember that path being annoying . I think I used stark spider man for a few of those fights. If you’ve got him ranked up, give him a shot

    Great suggestion but here's what I'm experiencing.

    Personally for me, guillotine 2099 assault pre fight worked great till vulture and i used cap iw(petrifys) for invisible woman, solo'd her.

    Claire is a bit difficult cause if i use guilly against her and she throws heavys on bleed curse which she loves to do, she'll be at an Sp3 in no time. So i used cap and mr. Richards sr for her.

    Till here i don't require any revives.

    Once Ms. Elsa makes an appearance it hits the fan and i had to quit cause i lost my combo with guilly and assault was not available .

    Usually when I see Vivified, thats an automatic Quake lane.

    That node is so dumb imo, can barely do a dang combo. I am not even a good Quake player, but its still cheaper than not having the Ghost + Hood like summoners dont

    Yes quake is an excellent counter but unfortunately I'm not an excellent quake player like munash or bryn or anyone here in the forums still, i tried and masochism ate the concussion everytime and i got smacked in the face so i had to drop her from the team.

    But yeah if it wasn't for for masochism i would've loved to quake atleast red skull, invisible woman, Claire and elsa.

    In 7.1 there's a vivified lane but kabam have added an assist node, wish there was something like this here but hey can't criticize them for improvement.

    Why don't you just bait her Sp1?

    You could wall play with g2099 against the elsa

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBQV4JUDOJ4

    That's happy mcmuffins, he's a beast. I remember watching this video such genius and she's not throwing sp2. You think elsa will cooperate?

    Anyways thanks for the video suggestion, I'll do duels against her and then go in the actual fight.

    Sometimes she just corners you up and then comes that 26k heavy. But yeah trying to improve and I'll try what joshkosh suggested. Try and channel my inner HappyMcmuffins.

    Do another path!

    I am throne breaker now, and haven't done Act 6 exploration. Already completed Act 7.1
    I am not fighting some of these Act 6 bosses again.
    I did Act 5 exploration, after I became Cavalier. The only compelling reason was for XP.
    I did Act 4 exploration, after I became uncollected. Only compelling reason was for the Mastery points.

    There is no compelling reason to explore Act 6, the pain is not worth it. So I would recommend just do another path and complete it.

    Forgot and I am surprised no one has mentioned this option. Awakened gwenpool is also a good option. I personally did not use her here. But I used her in the 200% power gain path in variant 1. She can tank a lot of Sp3 if they don't have any additional abilities like stun or Dot
