    I’m using 6* R2 unduped Hitmonkey for the Merc

    And 5* sig 200 Falcon or 5* unduped Hulkbuster.

    Any tips/ input on the fight would be great!

    Also, should I use HB or Falcon?

    🙏

    I’m going to echo what I’ve heard and say if you have BWDO use her - she’ll tackle both objectives at once.
    But if not, I’d say use Falcon for the Avengers challenge

    Does falcon bypass the destructive feedback node

    I don’t think he does, but I’d rather him over HB (though I do like HB)

    Cap IW is great for the Avengers side of it.
    Domino is pretty good for the mercenary side.
    CGR looks to be the only option for the paragon side unless you dont mind carpal tunnel.

    Domino works for merc

    I have her… at 5* R1 lol

    I keep meaning to rank her up for battlegrounds, but I pulled a Mags and he has to go up first for me

    Not an objective but obviously I had to do it with Archangel. Didn't find it too bad.

    Going to try Domino for the mercenary because why not.

    The dimensional being thing is not appropriate. So we doing Dorm with buffed up and maybe Ebony Maw with Corvus and Ghost next?

    Avenger - Namor
    Merc - Domino

    Dimensional Being - CGR...this was just a long, boring fight lol. Didn't care about rotation.
  • ButtehrsButtehrs Member Posts: 5,940 ★★★★★
    I used apocalypse and a few revives not really bothered to try for anything else. But I will say far too many times blade would not throw a special 1 and when he did, he would immediately throw 2 of them back to back in a way I couldn't avoid both.

    The fact that he can reparry you to make you bleed is just foolish

    No, they getting lucky and he is actually throwing specials
    It also has to do with timing and baiting. Sometimes I'd let him just block to heal and drain his power bar

    Capiw is great for avenger. Perfect block all day so you don't get pushed into your corner. Much easier to control the fight. Messed up at the end and had to reverse as I didn't want to do it over again.

    Hit monkey was a solo for merc.

    Also used AA initially just to see and he works quite well.

    Bwdo kept getting pushed back into my corner. Didn't particularly like that aspect in this fight since there's a lot of timing involved.

    Wouldn't a awakened mephisto work since he's immune to AAR
