Life cycle on blade in eq

I find it utterly ridiculous that an eq boss has lifecycle on him when not everyone in the game is equipped for those types of nodes yet. I acknowledge the challenge but have spent over 100 units just to beat him once. Without aa its almost impossible and there's no fun in impossible content but I forget if your not thronebreaker with 100 6*s no one cares.

1) spam heavy to get lifecycle down and flux as well
2) watch out for the power reversal - throw only SP1s.
3) when he gets low, do heavy and sp1. Due to powershield your damage will likely be enough to cmfortably KO him from 5% down. And since your SPs are unblockable, you can throw it straight away after heavy without having to worry about his block.
It might be a bit too difficult for UC to time, but if I compare it to some 5.4 fights, I'd say it's fair. It just requires slow approach
Until I figured you need a high SP1 champ.
You can't go to SP2 often so fire your SP1 as often as possible.
Wasp was a very good (non AA) counter.
Crits on Sp1 do a ton of damage.
Combo into heavy does work great to get a lot of knock downs.
Also YOUR SP1 is unblockable as well.
So go for heavy into SP on the wall.
Ofc you need to bait his SP1 all the time which is annoying but at least I can't fully dex his SP2
- 1. AA - Nueros stop the region AND Nuero damage counts
- 2. Human Torch - Flame On Novas will do damage and block the regen
- 3. Warlock - awakened can block the heal and passive degen will kill him on knockdown
- 4. Void - his IP buffs still do damage as the technically are DOTs and can also block the heal and kill on knockdown
- 5. Mr. Fantastic - full F4 team - acts like Void
- 6. AirWalker - Convert 10 dark tides into a passive
- 7. Mojo - degens are passives and will deal damage
- 8. Stryfe - passive shocks on L1
- 9. Maw - L2 passive degens but not ideal to get to L2 easily
I used AA, Warlock and Void on a few runs along with a few 'traditional' options just trying to knockdown and get L1 off in time after heavy knockdown.Thank you for your 1000th thread which has proved invaluable in our ability to reach this milestone.
So here what I feel,
It's not that hard once you got into the rhythm of managing power meter.
Any champion can work just keep doing parry heavy then sp1(for safety)
Don't let blade to go above sp2, if he is near to his sp2, try hitting his block he will heal some amount but power will go down.
Tip- choose champions who has good damage in sp1, so that you can finish him at his last health.
Don't try to go Toul your sp2,use sp1 immediately.
Just do heavy in his last 3-4% health and then do sp1.
Hulkbuster, AA, Collosus, all can work.
I did with a 4 star champ solo for fun. You need to read nodes. 6 stars aren't necessary to do it
warlock
g2099
colossus
aa
omega red
I normally start boss fight with colossus. OR is just for synergy to increase damage based on armor. parry heavy. when sp1 is available launch it. If i don't solo with colossus g2099 finishes the job. same style. parry heavy sp1 rotation.
I think it is important to learn how to use all kinds of champs on generalised nodes such as these, where you dont need a specific champion (sure is easier with one). Yes it restricts many champs dependent on power but it also gives many others a chance to do it. Definitely a node that helps build your skills imo.
I mean how many champs can do a heavy and an sp1?
