And the Ikaris/Sersi requirement is such BS. I don't really care about only having two viable champs, especially since those two lanes were the easiest for me, but it's still just a silly, annoying design. It serves no purpose.
Saying something is over the top difficult, but you "did it anyway", will not help the data.
The data will show you did it, and not only did you do it, but you were willing to consume items (if you used items).
It's only when the data shows "X number of people started and quit, or X number didn't even try" will there be backing of the sentiment that something has gotten to be too difficult and Kabam will be motivated to change something.
As is apparent by many of the Kabam Mods responses in the forum, they really don't play the game themselves which means the data has to reflect our sentiment.
Luckily I had Magneto for the robot quest last week, but this week's is killing me. It seems like everyone who clears it has either BWCV or Doom and I have niether.
1- This line " You are meant to use champions with a preferably hard hitting sp1 and bait Blade's sp1" is key. I tried doing so back them more often than not, Blade WOULDNT THROW HIS SP1 WHEN I NEEDED HIM TO, EVEN IF I DID ALL I COULD TO BAIT IT. That right there is the problem. I'm happy that you had the luck of him biting your bait, but I didn't.
2- You and @Berjibs basically wrote a treatise, a pages long friggin book on how to beat that Blade, AND THAT IN ITSELF IS TELLING TO THE POINT OF THIS WHOLE THREAD. Such intricate/specific fights SHOULD NOT HAPPEN on monthly quests that are not meant to be/considered as Endgame content. By all means Kabam, put these kinds of fights in your Summer of Pains and your Gauntlets (once you fix the current input bugs, that is) but keep them far away from SQ and EQ and other non-endgame content.
2) I wrote a long response to explain how you were wrong about the fight. The core of the fight is pretty simple (heavy sometimes, use sp1, bait sp1). That ain't a pages long book.
I'm one of the people who struggled through SOP and didn't have the roster for many bosses without using revives and even I soloed him with Colossus.
Your only point against this fight is that the AI could be passive which allright, fair enough could happen. However that doesn't mean it's an intricate/specific fight meant only in endgame content. That's like saying Bane is only for endgame content. That's pretty much saying any timer based node shouldn't belong in SQ,EQ and other non-endgame content when it should.
I'll explain it one more time more in detail and this is really gonna be my last word about, no point on beating the dead horse even further.
Let's take your " The core of the fight is pretty simple (heavy sometimes, use sp1, bait sp1)" line. Yep, sounds simple enough... until you mix in the fact that Blade had Vampiric Immortality, which coupled with that power switch node made it so that you needed for the stars to align for everything to work out. Why you say? Well because you needed him to throw sp1 in order for you to be able to have a sp1 to begin with right, so let's examine that " beat him with a ranged sp1 champ " scenario that you make it sound so easy ( because you are conveniently forgetting Vampiric Immortality):
You push him just to one bar of power , and bait and wait hoping he will throw sp1. But alas, Vampiric Immortality made it so that he would eat up his own power to heal himself, so you only had a few seconds of him being at one bar before he ate some of it and went below one bar, after that couldn't throw an sp1 anymore. Add that to the fact that your "beat him with a ranged sp1 " NEEDED him to throw an sp1 not only on the very small window when he had one bar (before Vampiric Immortality took that away) BUT ALSO THIS NEEDED TO HAPPEN AT THE SAME TIME YOU HAD THAT VERY SMALL LIFECYCLE WINDOW OPEN to be able to KO' him. So if the stars didn't align favorably for you, you were either dead or back to square one.
The reason why Sym or BWCV made it all a bit easier was because they could nullify the heal so you had more chances for this to happen before he was healed up, but still the perfect star alignment condition needed to be fulfilled.
Dude, I am genuinely happy for you that his fight didn't give you any headaches, I truly am. But what you are saying about me taking my own experience and extrapolating it as it if was everyone else's experience, well you are doing exactly the same. You are assuming that everyone else happened to have the same amount of luck you had by having the stars aligned exactly when you needed them to be aligned.
And that's the end of the discussion on my end, you may choose to continue it but I wont answer cuz there is no point on me proving my point any further. And the fact that it all adds fuel to the fire of this thread still remains, so there's that.
