    Ninrod
    I can’t speak for peni, but I’ve seen nimrod do work. He’s a tank, he can do damage, and he makes mutants complete jokes.

    Think of nimrod as the torch for mutants.

    There is absolutely nobody in mutant class who is tough to handle except Bishop ...and unfortunately Nimrod can't handle Bishop . So no he is not like Torch ..mystic class has many annoying defenders ..double of mutant class almost

    Not that my answer will help much but I wanted to throw it in there, I don't think you need any of those

    Ninrod
    I was gonna say that Nimrod is criminally underrated but apparently I don’t have to

    @Gmonkey, I don't want to argue semantics over which is better, cause I think Peni and Nimrod are both great (I also have both as 6* R3).

    I did throw a disagree on your comment though, but rather than being a disagree spammer, I wanted to explain why.

    You said Peni needs several sp1 before her sp2, and I don't think that's true. If you time Peni's special 1 right after they cross a power threshold, she'll get 4 charges for the activation, then 3 more when they cross the same power threshold hold after the initial power burn, for a total of 7 charges.

    With a single well timed sp1, I'm usually at 10 or 11 charges by the time I reach my sp2, and obviously, they melt at that point.

    When it comes to Nimrod vs Peni, the only factor for me is, do I need heal block (Peni), is the champ incinerate immune (Nimrod), does the champ gain prowess (Nimrod).

    Outside of those three factors, I'd have a hard time saying who I think is better.

    I have Vulture at r2, and I agree he's definitely a solid, and probably underrated, champ since his buff, but admittedly, I still haven't found myself using him much yet.

    I've got Nimrod, Sentinel, Peni, and Warlock at r3, so with the exception of the shock immunity with a synergy, he's kind of living in the shadows.
