Omega Red in 2022

in General Discussion
Is there a reason Omega Red isn’t as highly regarded as he once was? Is it because the mutant class is so stacked? I’m debating putting a 6* AG on him instead of Archangel because I already have a 5* Archangel fully maxed. Thoughts?

    I use my r3 in AW all the time.

    You need to run damage masteries to maximize his damage, and you want max sig as well, so that could be a disincentive for players.

    I think he's turned into more of a guilty pleasure champ since he requires sig 200 and his prestige is extremely low. It's hard for people to justify that level of resource investment when they have other champs available that can get the job done.

    For me I have more use out of AA than OR. I would use it on AA.

    @Etjama (who is currently muted) has a rank 4.
    I’ve seen some gameplay and it’s pretty impressive

    Not many 6* sig stones available for the most part currently in game. That, on top of the low prestige, are the main reasons folks have devalued him. If you have your prestige in order and have the sig stones, he's still a beyond god tier champ. Nothing changed on that end ever.

    Sorry to ask but... I have all the necessary items to take him to r3 & almost sig 200, sig 183 to be exact.. After seeing some 7.3 & 7.4 content (haven't started those yet), would he really be useful on more paths than not? Could care less about prestige though it would take every 6* stone that I have. Appreciate any info

    Short answer, Yes. Long answer, Act 7 is for expansive rosters. If you're going in it of the mind that you'll rely on a few champs to explore it, you're better served ranking some more champs along with OR. There is no catch all champ for those bits of content.

    AA over omega red, 100% if you don't want to waist mutant sig stones on a 6 star omega red, cause 6 star sig stones are hard to get, events, or pay to win or get lucky by pulling omega red a lot, which is a feet to itself. Think abt that

    Man Omega Red all Day. I’ve seen people on here mention there not a lot of 6* stone yet I see a good number of players in game with 200 sig 6*’s. If you grind cav SQ that’s 10 a mon. You might get lucky and get some mutant class. Act 7 has 6* stones of your TB. I mean omega is is definitely worthy of the awakening gem. I personally am not the biggest fan of AA either lol
