Help: Progression Focus...

edited February 2022 in Strategy and Tips
I finally obtained the Cavalier titled. I waited so long to get a 5* or 6* AA or Medusa to use in ACT 6 and after this weekend Romance event I still did not get either champ (LOL). However after reading various posts I decided not to wait any longer & I did it w/o those champs (TYSM OP's). Now my question is for further progression should I focus on exploring ACT 5, completing Act 6, or doing some of the easier Variants? Your input would be greatly appreciated.

    I went back to explore Act 5 after obtaining Cavalier progression title as I am not good enough to move on with Act 6.
    You may want to see what rewards each of them offers and how it will further your progression status and then decide on what content to do.

    I know this might sound stupid but really depends on ur roster. V 5 -8 have restrictions that require an assessment of those champions, i.e villains for 6, heroes for 7, etc... long story short, without seeing ur what champs u have, do what will help you either slowly or quickly towards TB

    Yes, I was considering just Exploring Act 5 but I thought I viewed quite a few posts whereas it was recommended to complete some of the easier Variants to expand your rooster B4 trying to tackle harder content.

    So, your recommendation is to just focus on completing ACT 6. I have concerns about how extensive of a rooster I would need to complete that task? I don't have a lot of high damage six stars.

    For me, Act 5 is more manageable than Back Issues. I have already completed 100% Act 5 but only just started the very first Back Issue #2 and already staring at the wall. :(

    Yeah, initially I was just going to explore ACT 5 because my 6*'s are not that extensive. Probably makes more sense to follow that path because I don't feel like I am prepared to try Variants or do a completion of ACT 6.

    BTW; since you completed ACT 5 how extensive was your rooster?

    1 or 2 5-Star r5 and about 10 5-Star r4. I recall having at least 2 r4s of reach class running Act 5.3.

    Mine was pretty similar, just 2-3 r5's, and some lower level 5* and 4*s. The first chapter is quite easy to knock off, and so is the third imo (save for a few paths). Masochism and the Collector fight were still annoying for me during exploration so I held that off. If you think you can take 5.3, I'd say try that, since you get good rewards, otherwise do chapter 1.

    Definitely prioritize Act 5 exploration and keep building up your roster.

    Yeah, after reading the responses I believe my best plan of action is to focus on exploring ACT 5.

    Great, that gives me a lot more confidence to continue w/ the ACT 5 exploration.

    I reviewed the rewards for each chapter & discovered that if I explored Chapter 5.4 I could obtain 10,000 5* shards, a fully formed 5*, & a generic 5* awakening gem...therefore I think I will try to tackle this chapter first... wish me luck ...LOL
