Do you still rank up 5*s to r5?

And also mention in the comments if possible whether you do it because you like a certain character and don’t have them in a higher rarity or resources expiring(t1a’s or gems) or just for fun testing or for some particular path or quest.

    I dont have a 6 star version, i rank up 5 star version

    Typically just the newer champs before I get them as a 6*.

    The last ones I ran ked up were Herc because I had been hunting him for so long (2 months ago), and Nimrod and took to max sig for Gauntlet when it returned. Outside of that, I don't think I've done one since February.

    If i don't have the 6*. If the champ is just that good. Or if its a champ for carina challenges (recently have taken up Dr. Octupus, Hulk Rag, Thor Rag, etc.)
  • DrZolaDrZola Posts: 7,951 ★★★★★

    Sometimes. Hulkling was my most recent 5* to R5, and I’m currently thinking about Galan or Quicksilver rankups. Otherwise, unless there’s a specific use or piece of content (or I need a few more points for Level Up), then I don’t.

    For high sig champs thatcoffer unique utility, like Ronan.

    No. Just to R2/3 to spend the T1A that are expiring.
  • OrtounOrtoun Posts: 347 ★★★

    It really depends on the champ. There are a lot I don't have as 6 stars and are useful enough to justify the resources. Kitty, herc, knull are all ones I have done recently, if I got apoc would do him also. Also some that require high sig to be useful I would do as it is much easier to sig up 5s then 6s

    My 5 star roster is way op than my 6 star. Using 5 star in act 8.1 exploration too
  • Etm34Etm34 Posts: 1,628 ★★★★★

    No. No point for me anymore. I can rank up an OP 5* to R5, but I likely A. Already have them as a 6* or B. Can substitute their use with a 6* I currently have.

    Yep, specially new champs i get on featured. My 6* aint deep enough to waste res on mid tier champs.

    I do have a lot of 6* since im 3.3m rating, but i pull too much garbage
  • CederCeder Posts: 666 ★★★

    Depends on the 5*, Hercules, Torch, Nimrod, are all worth it if you don't have the 6*
  • SandeepSSandeepS Posts: 1,061 ★★★★
    Yes (TB)
    Pulled nimrod, rank5 and use in p4 wars. Also torch and AA were worth it for me. Reserve it for special champs

    It's been over 2 years since the last time I used valuable rank up material to r5 a 5 star.

    The highest I ever rank up 5 stars is r3 and I only do that because I always seem to have several dozen t1a close to expiring and I hate selling them as you get so little for them so I try to use the.

    Woah 3.3m! How come you’re not paragon yet?
  • VVDoomVVDoom Posts: 18 ★

    Only if i don't have the 6* version and if it's a must-have character. My cases are CGR and Shang Chi. Seeking both as 6-star, but already 5R5 just in case...

    Yes. Champs like Magneto, Tigra, Doom, etc are all still vey effective as 5 stars. I used my 5 star Tigra, Mags and Ghost plenty in 8.1. Also occasionally used my 5 star torch

    I voted yes, because I have a lot of 5* rank up gems left… But yeah, mainly 6* champs…
  • Wozzle007Wozzle007 Posts: 813 ★★★★★

    Nope. Not even if I don’t have as a 6* yet. Don’t want to waste the rank up resources. Typically don’t take them last rank 1 unless I have a rank up crystal. I don’t think there’s many new 5* champs that can do something that any of my current 6R3 of R4’s can’t do. Would rather wait for the 6* version.

    I only open 5* for the iso anyway. Get disappointed when I get a new 5* as don’t get the iso.

    Don’t have a big six star roster and a lot of them are either for fun/battlegrounds anyways

    After holding out for a long time, I finally ranked up my 5* Symbiote Supreme . He was always one of my favorite mystics. A week later, I pulled him as a 6* and vowed never to spend resources on another 5*.

    Then, on a whim, I pulled a 5* Scorpion from the 5* featured crystal. I took him right up to r5 and never looked back.

    I’m at 7 rank 3 6*s, am pretty close to my first r4, and have a t5cc in every class. I have plenty of 6*s to use them on, and plenty of gold. Just going to be waiting on level up events and catalysts. The only 5* I would rank up, would be Apoc, and then Wolverine (who I already had duped when he was still rare)

    Exactly ! Best strategy

    Nope. I'm even slowing down on doing lots of 6* and only ranking ones up that I will take straight to r4.
  • DukenpukeDukenpuke Posts: 582 ★★★
    I have 3 accounts.

    On my 2 TB accounts, I won't rank 5*s to R5 unless they're absolutely top tier (Quake, Ghost, Doom, Fury).

    On my Cav account, I'll continue to rank R5s until I have 5 or 6 of each class ranked up (either 6* R2 or 5* R5), then will stop and focus solely on 6*s.
