Blisteringly fast! What is your revive and unit stash looking like, for necropolis? Assuming Kate is going to do most of it?
Currently I have around 50 single revives, 10 team revives and 1.5k units left on the account (I bought 20 energy refills in bulk for 8.2). I plan to get one of the eq 500 unit deals for some 30% champion boosts so I have a pretty good stash for it. And yeah, Kate will be the carry for necropolis
Day 19 Recap! 8 paths to go 👀👀👀. Another 2 quests fully explored today, plus 2 paths done in 8.2.5. Today was easier than yesterday, only 1-2 revives used and overall easy bosses and paths:
8.2.3
Dr Octopus lane - Any champion can work here if you parry and dex enough, but Gamora went absolutely ham cause of all her buffs, it was taking 12-14 hits to get back to sp2s
Jubilee lane - Pretty generic nodes, so Kate ripped through it with coldsnap. Had to watch out for limber on normal parries but the passive stun doesn’t get reduced
Mangog lane - Photon really shone here, completely removed the thorns damage with her debuffs and made quick work of most fights. I tried out Kate too and managed to get one solo but a lot of damage back
Shang chi lane - Bit of a slog, but Chavez and Gamora did well. Power Shield 2.0 actually reduces Kate’s coldsnap damage by 90% (only node so far that has), so she can’t really be used well
Ms marvel lane - Generic lane with some additional healing for you. Chavez, Kate, Gamora, anyone can do this realistically, just make sure they hit decently hard.
All 3 bosses in this quest were relatively easy, cheelith worked great for Joe Fixit cause of bleed vulnerability, Chavez shredded Ronan, and then anyone can do nimrod
8.2.4
Venom lane - one of few lanes that getting the weapon node is actually a massive incentive. Get the weapon and then any champ will shred with specials cause of the vulnerability
Daredevil lane - I used 1 team revive on this lane, purely cause of having poor incinerate counters and only 1 mutant. The lane isn’t too tough with incinerate champs, but without it you will melt a bit
Gambit lane - Kate, Chavez and Gamora trio destroyed this lane. Nodes are very very generic, and barely even benefit tech champs even though it has tech nodes
Ghost Rider lane - Man this lane was funnnnn! Gamora and photon are absolutely perfect for it, get the weapon node and opponents die within 30-35 hits cause of all the debuffs on them.
Civil Warrior lane - this lane would be difficult if it didn’t have life transfer, but that takes away any challenge as you can instantly heal up. Even a stacked iceman on this path wasn’t scary as you can just heal everything back
The only difficult boss in this quest was Massacre, because he had biohazard and I died with photon like a bot 🤦♂️. Morningstar and scorpion especially was very easy.
8.2.5
War Machine lane - Gamora dream house! Just have to get 1 vigilance up in 10 hits and then you get insane damage from the cosmic node and shred everything
Hulk lane - Another weapon node that is very good to exploit, opponents take 5% chunks after you capture it cause of the combat dejavu node, on top of your usual damage
Both the peni and kitty bosses are very easy in this quest, I didn’t solo either but got both down in 2 shots between Gamora and Kate/Chavez.
So that’s where I stopped, 8 paths remaining including the 5 Bahamet runs to get the 1st r3. I am going to be streaming that today around 11pm/12pm GMT (approx 4-5 hours from this message being typed), and I’m going to take up the first r3 live on stream. Then tomorrow it’s time for the necropolis to finish this!
Video for today, the other bosses from 8.2 (mostly) smashed through:
@Cantona59 i finally got to variant. Thanks for the encouragement and help fuel the fire to get here.
Same here. Was at 8.4.2 ever since it came out, then you explored 8.4 and so I was like, we basically have the same roster, I can do this!! So I’m currently on 8.4.6 getting destroyed for the 7th time!!
Day 20 Recap! Act 8 100% Explored! Last night went pretty well, spent minimal items on the last 8 paths and Bahamet went decently well overall.
8.2.5
Diablo lane - Photon destroyed this lane cause of all her debuffs, Gamora also did some decent work
Aegon lane - Nodes don’t really matter on this lane, I used Kate for all the fights and she coasted through
Cgr lane - Chavez was good for this lane, using the blue dimension on her sp2 got her some power drain and furies from the mystic nodes
8.2.6
Civil Warrior lane - Using the weapon node gives opponents incinerate, so you deal 200% extra damage. Anybody can do this lane really
Prof X lane - Anybody can do this lane too, just gotta be pretty aggressive cause of the armour node, so Kate, Gamora and Chavez all worked well here
Purgatory lane - A bit of a slog this lane, it has high energy diet, so Kate and photon was a bit useless, and Chavez sp2 was also bad. Still managed to push through, Gamora did most of the work
Falcon lane - This lane seems nasty, but is actually very simple with Kate. It wants you to use mutants but honestly they aren’t amazing for that lane
King Groot lane - Chavez was great her because of her ability to reduce the duration of indestructible buffs. Kate was also good cause of the passive ticking damage and slow playing.
All of my Bahamet runs went relatively well. I took cheelith to r4 and she was crushing him, I would usually die towards the last phase but then the rest of the team would clean up.
Then it was time for the juicy rewards opening. I started with the 2-3 gem incase I didn’t have a 7 star of that class already, and I’m glad I did because I got skill. Then I opened the 7 star nexus and Titan, decided to pass on black panther to get sunspot (should have took Wiccan 🤦♂️), and my Titan was a big L with Luke cage. So then I had to pick the 7 star skill Crystal and I got Crossbones! He’s a champ I have never played before and don’t have as a 7 star on my main, so a pretty cool r3 to have even though he doesn’t have his awakened ability. I took him for a quick spin in the abyss and he soloed thing first try, so he’s a pretty decent champion.
So that’s 1/2 of the r3 champions I need for Valiant. We are almost there, the final thing to do is the Necropolis tonight (scheduled for 11pm GMT + 1). I’m still tinkering with the team, and I’m thinking of bringing Dr Doom now as he would be very good for some fights, even though he would be very slow. See you all tonight 😁

In Titania Path, Dr doom can easily solo Air walker, and with 1 revive can do Jublie which is very annoying. I didn't tried him against Nova but I believe it's also doable in 1-3 revives
This is impressive play. Glad you got a few solid 6*/7* champs a few days in. Make sure you finish off with some perspective on which champs worked best - sounds like Chee'ilth is cleaning house for you 😉
