Anyone else giving up on Deathless King Groot (and therefore Thanos) just from this first WoW fight?

TurtleFlakes · February 8

I’m not an amazing player and had to do the paragon gauntlet with 5*s which took me a long time, but honestly Winter of Woe just doesn’t seem likely at all without a ton of revives. Anyone else in the same position?

ReignkingTW · February 8

Yes

And because guillotine wasn't worth it either. I haven't done carinas, especially with all of the problems.

Buttehrs · February 8

At the end of the day, they're all trophy champs and usually those aren't anything game breaking or OP. Weapon X and Jessica are the two best trophy champs we've ever had and they are easily outclassed by many champs in their respective classes.

Chuck_Finley · February 8

Yep. Got deathless guilly with no units. But not being valiant I have to hit every objective. The energy/revive to fun ratio of this fight doesn’t put it anywhere near something I will chase now.

Just forget it. I have better things to do.

Buttehrs · February 8

On the bright side, they aren't very expensive unit wise. Considering you'll always have at least 1 or 2 out of the 5 pieces for each champ.

GinjabredMonsta · February 8

I’m trying so hard not to

JT_Supreme · February 8

I think it’s the hardest of the eop fights so far

BeastDad · February 8

Seeing how terrible the first deathless character was, I couldn't possibly care less if I get the pieces or not.

Nightheart · February 8

Deathless King Groot is likely to be like the pre buffed King Groot so not worth it

Polygon · February 8

Keep in mind its just the first fight, the rest are going to be even harder.

I would not want to be Kabam forum mods here on the month of the finale lol.

DwightEXA · February 8

Spending 5000 units for the piece selector after all is said and done is probably cheaper than the amount of units I'd spend on revives throughout the entirety of woe. So there's no point in pushing myself to complete this. Just gonna spend the time grinding out arena more.

Sbkrueb · February 8

Im out.

G-Hun-Gear · February 8

I guess Abs-Man will also be part of the gauntlet in the final week... So just the frist of 5 that you have to beat, while completing at least 5 objectives!

And he's going to be 😂😂😂

Ashacekar · February 8

I will take all 6*, no issues there.

Though i do fear that for Thanos event where all 4 champs will be needed to obtain him, the 6*s might not work out. They should make an easier event for 6* Thanos, not a common with say 4 gated paths having high difficulty and exploration gives both the Thanos.

Cvlr · February 8

Probably lmao

May I just focus on exploring necropolis

Magrailothos · February 8

Yes.

We've seen Guilly, and we've heard the stated aims for these Deathless champions, on livestreams.

Hitting 18/19 in WoW is an incredible amount of effort to obtain 1/5 of a trophy champion that we absolutely know will have few (if any) meaningful applications in the game. If the Deathless piece had been one or two milestones lower, it would have looked less of a horrible grind to obtain.

Maybe...maybe Deathless Thanos will be the meta champion promised.

But we don't actually know what he is going to be like. And with absolutely no idea what I'm fighting for, a year's worth of fun-and-interactive 'challenges' like this doesn't seem something I want to invest in.

I wish the best of luck to anyone still chasing this, though: go for it!

Sir_Globalot · February 8

I did the fight with Hulk in 5 revives, but #Robot is vastly harder. IMO they should keep the difficulty but drop the King Groot piece down a couple of reward tiers, so you can reasonably do it by getting through at least one challenge a week. Otherwise, it's not worth the hassle.

The worst would be if he's a meta defender AKA worthless outside of AW. I'd hate to go through all of this and end up with a Thanos meant to place and not play.

Priyabrata · February 8

I gave up on Thanos from the bgs guillotine piece and this abs man boss just solidified that for me

Gaborrrrr · February 8

Yes, this is an awful fight with terrible AI, waste of energy and resources. No thank you, I´ll pass on rewards and try to find some fun content instead

DrZola · February 8

Just one person’s opinion…

…when you have players who want to do your content, who have the very few champs needed to do your content and who are willing to test their skill to do your content, but the content design flatly discourages those players from giving it a go at the very outset, you might want to consider rethinking your design content.

GrO_ot78 · February 8

With an AI that behaves horribly, in combination with a tank of a 1.2 mil defender, who also regen well and often, just forget it...not fun for 1 second…deathless champs sucks anyways…

Krishna24 · February 8

I would rather explore Necro to get Valiant than do Wow

I’ll just wait for 8.4 lol

Charlie21540 · February 8

Definitely leaning in that direction!

Maxus7 · February 8

Yep totally given up and slowly giving up on this game too

Jefechuta · February 8

Im personally going to try to get all of them as 7*, already have Guill, obviously those are not worth if you are thinking about getting champs you will use for Content, those are just Trophy champs.

Was it worth to spend 700$ on stuff on the store just to get a Trophy champ selector? Nop, it was not, but the people that wanted those Trophy champs spent the money anyways, this is the same, but free, so you will have to get damned playing if you want those Trophy champs, will you use them? No, you wont, but thats not what Trophy champs are made for.

Vance2_jr · February 8

Who has two thumbs and is giving up on deathless Groot? This guy…

IOSJasoN · February 11

Are paragon players even able to get deathless king Groot piece? Correct me if wrong but twice a month until the 3rd of April, 3 points x 4 events = 12 points
Final has 4 objective points and one for completion so 5 points = a total of 17 points
The piece is 18 points.
Where does the extra point come from? What is it I’m missing?

Hector_1475 · February 11

Yes, absolutely.

I have one path left (8.3.6) to get the 7* Guillotine and I will do that on my own pace (when resources are expiring). But I’m totally out of the race for the Deathless KG and eventually Thanos. The effort and resources required very simply are not justified.

Anyone else giving up on Deathless King Groot (and therefore Thanos) just from this first WoW fight?
