    what do you guys think is easier? one run with bwdo to hit both objectives or one run with falcon and one with hit-monkey/domino?

    For me, BWDO. But i also didn't want to do it another round haha. I should be practicing with other champs to prep for boss rush though

    BWDO for all, Domino for Merc, AA for easiest completion

    Yes, it was a solo. Once you inflict FoV then it’s pretty easy. Especially, when Blade is below 70%. Hit into his block to drain his power while heal blocking at the same time.

    BWDO is a pretty realistic solo. I used 2 revives due to catching a sp1 to the face, but i found the fight much easier than last week

    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.

    Wouldn't a awakened mephisto work since he's immune to AAR
    I thought that initially too, and got wrecked. That's when I read Blade's kit that I haven't read in ages, and Danger Sense bypasses immunities to AAR.

    So in short, no, Mephisto isn't any better than any other options for the dimensional being tags.

    I used CGR and lots of revives for dimensional beings. The thing that killed me the most though was CGR throwing a random heavy when I’m going for a normal 5hit combo.

    THIS!!! It’s maddening it’s been happening with virtually every champ I’ve used for this week’s EoP. They just randomly heavy, charge in or dash forward exactly when I’m trying to not to. Controls have gotten worse.

    I don’t understand the point of paragon objective !

    It nearly reduce the fight to pure luck and full rng dependent ! Even with skill, if rng is not on your side you’re screwed ! I will not even talk about the AI that don’t want to launch the sp or the bugs that we have to deal with for nearly a year now (which even seems nastier since their last fix)

    The other two objectives are ok, not easy but ok, but the dimensional being one 🤮

    Did you want it to be mutant instead of dimensional being? Like symbiote supreme for ikarus was easier imo than mutant (I actually don't remember if it was mutant it some tag). I'd expect moneygone title owners to get a more difficult objective, as those seem to be not happy with lack of challenging content. Giving them objectives easier then tb players get just doesn't make any sense

    Domino 5r5 sig200 for merc, namor 6r2 sig0 for avenger. Both close to solo without any boosts or suicides or whatever, with 1 20% revive for domino and 4 20% for namor for last 5%, lol. I feel like input was lagging, sometimes he wouldn't dash back or block. Also overall his dash back feels strange to me, as I never really use him. Overall just an annoying fight with a lot of sp1 bait

    Compared to last week, Blade is a cakewalk.

    Relatively easier only and it is far from saying it a cakewalk. Still a tough fight. I used 5r4 BWDO.

    Domino is really good for this

    Ronin. Got the solo on my second run! He is a great option with his evade and inflicts bleeds through block.

    Paragon isn’t meant to be easy I guess

    Difficult objectives are ok if it requires high skill to complete. But that objectif, with all the bugs and AI behavior, is more a question of luck than skill.

    By the way i completed it with CGR and 2 revives but it left me more with frustration than the pleasure of a good fight

    BWDO.
    Fight wasn't too bad, just pay attention to 2 things.
    First, Blade's power meter. His special attacks are unblockable so don't let him get above 2 or game over. His SP1 is easy to dexterity.
    Second, the Destructive Feedback node meter under Blade's health bar. If it's yellow, either avoid Blade or intercept him. Don't even block or parry. When it turns gray, then u can fight normally.

    Anyway, that's all I really paid attention to.

    For those who don’t have BWDO and need to spilt objectives, I think many players would pick Domino as the most effective Merc option. For avenger one, other than HB and CAIW, have you thought about him:


    Originally I used him for trial run but it turns out to be very effective and fun. Just keep launching SP1/2 and Blade have very little chance to launch SP1. You just block and hit him as usual when destructive feedback expired.
