Attuma, Freshly Awakened. Worthy of any resources?

DrZola · July 24

Not my cup of tea, and not an especially tough defender over the past few BG metas, so what does this handsome fellow offer?

Open to any insight…

Yup. Good bg

captain_rogers · July 24

Not worth it. Better invest your sigs on someone like crossbones, black cat, korg or Killmonger

I like him in questing and such but not in BGs as much, because as an attacker he takes a while to ramp up.

MarvelNoob · July 24

I'm one of the biggest attuma fans there are. While he does take some time to ramp up, once he is ramped he's unstoppable, literally.
If your focus is bgs I wouldn't rank him but if you just wanna have some fun he's your guy

Daddrieda · July 24

Seen him do multiple sp1 back to back when baiting him and suddenly he goes unstoppable 😦

Vegeta9001 · July 24

I use my 7* now and then to pair with my unfortunately double duped invisible woman to get use out of my under used champs in questing or aq

I actually used Attuma in the most recent SOS gauntlet funnily enough.

Emilia90 · July 24

He’ll still rip a chunk out of a good amount of champs so idk why people say he doesn’t have much defensive value

When attuma throws an sp1 he gains hydration charges and when he hits 20 he goes unstoppable. The only ways to remove the unstoppable is either parry him or wait out the timers

The reason is because most have him at r2. He needs r3 more than any defender in the game rn because of how small his healthpool is.

He takes off health (more at higher sig), but his healthpool is mediocre so it allows nukes to get him down quick. But at rank 3 the health loss is more since it would require more hits

DrZola · July 24

Aha.

Thanks for input…my Cat is R3 and L60, and I’m inclined to push resources toward Chee and Shang for attack and Korg (L60) and KM (L100) for defense in the Skill class. May take a harder look when it’s time to compare him and Mantis.

I got him as my 3rd R3, he's a lot of fun. If you learn how to play him correctly you're going to get an amazing dual champ. I used him a lot in the act 8 and act 9 beta

Magrailothos · July 25

I took him to r3 for Valiant; and am happy enough - I had quite few options at the time, and he's almost permanently banned in BGs.

He's generally an okay champ; the main unique thing he has is his AAR reversal; which makes him effectively immune to/empowered by the many nodes in the game that inflict Disorient and Concussion. So he's good for War and Quest paths that mess with your Ability Accuracy; as well as opponents like Crossbones, Black Widow and Black Cat, plus more recent champs who reduce offensive ability accuracy, like Ironheart and Maestro (with Glancing).

He's useful to have in your roster occasionally; particularly in Questing and occasional fights from stuff like Summer of Pain/Winter of Woe, etc. But not necessarily someone to focus resources into, if you have better options.

MojoMasterAtom · July 25

I went r2 to pair him with my Shuri- makes them both start with 10 guaranteed crit hits. Helps his ramp up

EdisonLaw · July 25

I don’t think he needs high sig, low sig is fine. Save those stones for other skill champs like Xbones, Killmonger or Korg

Attuma definitely needs the sigs more than all 3 of those.

Nightheart · July 25

If you want to use him as attacker he needs sig 200 to be at his best as a defender he will be annoying to deal with

Bro didn't even hesitate to name black cat in there 💀

Nichj99 · July 25

My 7* is R3 sig 80 and I love him. No regrets on the rank up at all

@Nichj99 got any screenshots of him in BGs against hulkling/juggs?

Not immediately but I’ll jump into BG over the weekend and see what I can come up with for you

WednesdayLength · July 26

I love him to pieces but he takes a while to get used to. Try him out in eq and random content until you get a feel for him
