**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

    Against dr. Doom he start the fight with 3 genetic code. Is this a bug?? Since the node say, he treat all Champions as mutant. Also dr. Doom can passive stun him, I think it’s because of apocalypse only stun immune while attacking .

    Hey everybody,

    Just a heads up that we're making a couple small changes to some of Apocalypse's Synergies before his release:

    -Impending Storm with Storm: Reduced Storm's shock damage from 90% to 70%
    -Guardian of the Pyramid with Storm (Pyramid X): Reduced Storm (Pyramid X)'s Prowess Potency from 20% to 15%
    -Bringer of Death I with Psylocke: Added +5% Critical Rating per Psi-Charge
    -Bringer of Death I with Psylocke: Increased Attack Rating on 0 power Opponent from 30% to 50%

    These will be live before Apocalypse is available.

    I’m okay with these nerfs, their still extremely powerful. Plus, it increases the chance that Storm will be buffed outside this synergy (not that it’s really needed at this point). Also, REALLY happy to see that buff to Psylocke. She’s a cool champion & love her play style. She just needed the damage, & now she’s got it.
    It wasn’t necessary since she has no utility also no one use her. And in this game, there is more powerful champ.

    are you referring to the Cavalier Apocalypse? if so, the node says "all Heroes", every champion that isn't tagged Hero won't give him the fourth charge at the start of the fight (and Hero-tagged robots too, it seems) ^_^

    Why doesn’t the 4 star version have all of the synergies?? That’s complete BS. Missing the archangel and Wolverine synergies which is the main reason for wanting this champion really pissed I spent so many units on the cav crystals to get the 4 star version and he doesn’t even help me at ALL......
  • I just completed the 3 vs 3 arena for the 4* apocalypse with 6.9M and didn't get him!! Is there some kind of mishap?
  • 6) Mystique
    One of the most unique characters in the Marvel Universe, Mystique can shape-shift into anyone she has seen, and has exceptional fighting abilities. She would have rivalry synergies with countless other Mutants, and would be a Mutant herself.
    Unique Abilities:
    Deception:
    There is a fixed 5% chance that Mystique shape-shifts into another champion for a split-second, confusing the enemy, exposing their armor (Armor Break) and weakening their attacks (Weakness) for 8 seconds.
    Poison Immunity
    Awakened Ability:
    Exposed:
    Mystique deceives her opponents with shape-shifting. When Mystique's Deception exposes her enemy, the effect is now permanent, and can stack without limit.
    Other status effects:
    Fixed 10% chance to gain Precision and/or Cruelty.

    ***** Horsemen Gambit w/ Smoke Grey Skin and White Hair

    #Polaris
    One of the countless victims of the M-Day event, Polaris lost her magnetism powers, a fact she kept hidden from her teammates. In denial, Polaris was ripe for the taking by Apocalypse, who eventually persuaded her to serve as a Horseman in exchange for having her powers restored. Polaris accepted, and had her powers restored through technological means. Apocalypse fused with her body.

    Polaris’ appearance as Pestilence was greatly changed from her typical appearance, wearing a bulky suit of armor that completely concealed her body. Lorna attempted to create a new plague that would devastate the globe but was stopped by the X-Men and other heroes of the Marvel Universe. Resisting Apocalypse’s control, Polaris refused to follow Gambit and Sunfire, eventually being freed from her Horseman status.
  • #Iron-Spider (Avengers)

    #Spider-Man 2099


    **** #Horsemen Spider-Man (Apocalypse)

    In two alternate universes, the atypical Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man found himself drafted into Apocalypse’s Horsemen, and both times he served as Pestilence. One such occasion was when the reunited Avengers found themselves facing off against the Horsemen of Apocalypse at the dawn of the Heroic Age, thanks to damage inflicted on the timestream by Kang the Conqueror.

    Elsewhere, on Earth-5701, Peter was transformed into Pestilence by Apocalypse. Alongside Archangel and Famine, he was enlisted to track down Cable, throughout reality. The trio should have been formidable enough but didn’t count on the trio of Deadpool, Cannonball, and Siryn also searching for Cable, easily besting the Horsemen. It’s unknown exactly how strong Spider-Man became as Pestilence but given that, on his own, he’s managed to defeat the likes of the X-Men at his normal power levels, it's safe to say he was significantly stronger.
  • Apocalypse!!!! I’m so happy with this character! I haven’t played this game consistently since acquiring him luckily from my units (surprisingly)

    Note: Would love to see
    #DAKEN (Horsemen)

    In a universe populated with sadists and murderers, Daken is still regarded as one of the worst. The long-lost son of Wolverine, Daken has taken on his father’s penchant for killing with none of the honor. But he eventually pressed too hard, and Wolverine had to kill his own son before he went too far, drowning him for his part in trying to turn the child Evan into the new Apocalypse.

    Sometime later, Daken was brought back from death by The Apocalypse Twins, who made him one of their four Horsemen of Death. The twins contended with the Uncanny Avengers but ultimately died failing. With their death, Daken and fellow Horseman Grim Reaper returned to Earth. Daken would eventually free himself of his Horseman abilities, allying with his sister Laura in the wake of his father’s death.

  • #GAMBIT (Horsemen) Smoke Grey Skin w/White Hair

    In the desperation that came following the near extinction of mutantkind on M-Day, Gambit turned to a surprising source for aid: Apocalypse. Believing Apocalypse may have the means to restore mutants, Gambit agreed to become Death so that he could work with Apocalypse from the inside. However, he was unable to retain his personality as he had hoped and became totally subservient to Apocalypse.

    Gambit was eventually rescued by Sunfire (who was serving as Famine at the time) and formed a temporary alliance that resulted in them attacking the X-Men. Though the attack failed, it became clear that Gambit was long gone under the influence of Apocalypse. After the failed attack, however, Gambit and Sunfire were rescued by Mr. Sinister, who freed them from Apocalypse’s control.

    #Madeline Pryor
    Would love to see her from the X-Men be. X-Factor War

    #LadyDeathstrike (Horsemen) Apocalypse)

    #Dazzler would be a plus to see as well

    #Jubliee

    #X-FACTOR (Wolverine)
    #Horsemen (Wolverine) Deadly
    #DARK Phoenix

  • 🖤🖤🖤🖤 Female Black Panther (Shuri) Tech

    #Kraven The hunter

    #Calypso
  • GAMBIT

    incredible luck and good job!

    how much money did you spend to get all that?? :)

    Nameless_IW, all in all maybe around $400USD +tax and change, but that also got me some other 6* like Vision Aarkus, Longshot (awaken), Apocalypse, Thor Jane Foster (awaken), Night Thrasher (awaken) [five 6* champions].. 5* Doom and awaken him, Prof X and awaken him, and many other 5* not on the top of my head.. note: I won’t be able to edit and add the other 5* later, so I will leave it at that..

    I think I spent the most on En Sabah Nur ‘Apocalypse’ cavalier crystal than any other feature cav crystal that I opened, more than what I spent on 4th July.. five 6* and 5* Doom and pulling him again just icing on the proverbial ‘cavalier’ cake..

    as you see I only miss the 5* Apocalypse.. how wild is that?


  • ImranImran Posts: 587 ★★★
    Got him as 6★. Creating a horseman weaken him a lot. And u need four fight to build up those genetic code again. Even cable synergy won't help there.

    You don't need 4 fights. 1 fight against a mutant brings u upto 3 and then 1 more fight to top you off.

    Who think UC and Cavalier Completion Rewards should be placed back ???

    how does apocalypse's sig ability, regen while teammates fight during quests, work during war defense? does he regen between fights or does nothing happen?
  • psp742psp742 Posts: 1,933 ★★★★
    I haven’t brought Apocalypse into AW yet, he isn’t awaken.. so I wouldn’t get the regen.. from my understanding is, if Apocalypse suffers damage.. he regen some health if you use one of your other champions in attacking and win the fight.. Apocalypse damage isn’t as significant compared to other DOT, but with SP3 they become permanent and increase in potency.. wish his damage was adjusted higher a bit thou.

    Does horsemen of apocalypse work in AW if they are defenders?

    No, they (and every other synergies like this) don't work for defenders.
