Thoughts on Crucible

What did y’all think? I thought it was a lot of fun and I loved the format. Got to use a lot of champs I rarely use anymore and a couple I haven’t used much at all. Hopefully they will keep this going with other challenges. Rewards were awesome, too. Although, my crystal pulls probably couldn’t have been worse lol, but the 2-3 gem is fire. So if someone from the game team could kindly reset my rng, that would be great. Cuz I’m on a giant streak of awful pulls. K thanks 😂

    Its great. I'm doing normal difficulty, on my third path. Wouldn't say its exactly fun, but it is engaging at least and rewards for completing before September 4th are totally worth it.

    It’s fun. It makes getting new champs, who may not be god tier in their class, more enjoyable to collect and rank up as they’ll have use in crucible type content.

    also first time i actually enjoyed planning a path.

    10/10 content tbh

    Also What makes this long form content work + enjoyable is the fact that it allows you to create a second questing team for other parts of the content so that means i can take my time on it and enjoy other parts of the contest.

    I think we should start planning for an act 8 crucible next year

    Can you guys let me know the difference between normal and legendary difficulty? It seems like the champs’s PI / nodes are the same for both but just the path is shrunk from 4 paths in normal to 2 paths in legendary. Am I missing something?
    Sorry, I had been busy with work and all the other stuff in the game. Thanks in advance.

    What happens if you complete before September 4th? Is it the objective?

    The health and attack of the champs are also slightly higher. At a quick glance, Yondu for example has 200k more hp and 2k more attack in legendary. Normal having shorter paths also makes it much easier to plan since you’re not as restricted

    Watch out for Hit monkey, i had to use 15+ revives just on him.. no one warned that je is going to be a pain with lifecycle and that we should preferably use Hercules on him..
    But it was good and fun, for the most part.

    I got to kill superior kang with superior iron man and got to use new champs like iron heart and got a 2-3 and 7* wags for doing it. W!

    So much fun.

    Biggest problem? Some of those that had guides out (gorr for void?????) led people astray.

    I liked it. Hard but fun. Good rewards. I liked the deep dive into the champ bullpen.

    It was a great addition, I had a blast with it and would love to see more content like this, maybe even some carinas challenges to make us go through it again for some extra goodies.

    That would be so good. Perhaps, defeat the kang path with only champs that share a synergy with kang? Idk, maybe that would be too hard.

    It was an easy r3 and even my alt managed to explore it without any super super hard challenge. With aore limited roster it was certainly challenging but not exactly a unit sink hole.

    It was fun but loooong. Took 4 hours for me (with real life interruptions).

    Have you not fought against Lifecycle before?

    Another time, you can use literally any champ, although mutants like Bishop/Apocalypse/Storm have definite advantages.

    Just knock him down a few times during the fight, then save your SP3, knock him down with a Heavy when he's low on health, and throw the SP3 when he stands back up.

    I really enjoyed this content - great use of pre-existing content, à la Variant.

    Too hard, too long, the content is not for me. I think I'll wait till act 9 comes out to become valiant

    Literally the easiest “Everest” content this game has ever added but sure

    "Only thing that can stop me is Alota Fagina. Hough hough hough", I state as I tremble before the gates of the crucible.

    I know the drill, i have fought against lifecycle, but it took me and some of my alliance mates off guard, i took my Domino r1 against him, that was the best option for me, since i used AA before him.

    Love it. Best content they've put out since Necro, and it might even be better.

    It is amazing. It may take 3 hours to complete each path, but the journey, itself, is amazing and fun.
    The best ever content in the game, in my opinion.

    I would like to see a similar content with chapter 6 and 8 bosses.
