    Crossbones has a poison node though which bishop isn’t immune to

    I thought it was Biohazard, so as long as he doesn't hit into the block he's fine? Maybe I'm wrong, it was a long time ago :smile:
    They changed it from Biohazard to poison node

    Question on Red Skull in 6.1.1 - I'm getting to the stage where I manage to get him to around 50% health with Kingpin (not the best counter i'm sure but going on the logic he's a good champ and i'm not going to need him for the boss) However I can't find any logic behind why 7 times out of 10 the parry stun doesn't work, it keeps catching me out and i'm being punished for it. Any tips with this please?

    10% reduced stun ability accuracy per armor up, max 70%

    Nah it does 100 percent of your health in poison damage. Bishop should be able to regen enough that you don't die from poison but you will defo be below 10 percent health
    It used tobe biohazard tho. They changed it when they nerfed act 6

    Couple more questions for you very helpful people.

    Alliance Loyalty points - What's the best thing to spend this on? I'm sitting on about 700k and have already bought my alliance of awakening gem, Tier 5 catalyst fragments and tier 2 alpha catalyst. There's obviously loads of boosts in there and not sure which are the best to buy (if any) and I don't really see the point in buying AW Potions as I never use them (just buy the revives for 1 loyalty point)

    Incursions - I'm sitting at around 32k incursion shards and I can't reach the next top zone to be able to get more. Do these reset at any point to allow me to start earning incursions shards from the bottom zones again?

    Thanks!

    Loyalty — if you don’t need potions or boosts for AW, just bank points until you can buy another AG. That’s probably more helpful than anything else at this point in your progression.

    Incursions — the “season” lasts around a month. Never quite clear on the exact length, but it will reset soon and you can earn more shards or whatever they’re called. With incursions, the rewards for each level reset once a month cycle, but the gold rewards reset every week. So if you are low on gold, you can always re-run some incursions to earn more.

    Incursions is split into six 5-day cycles. Every 5 days the gold milestones reset and every 30 days the zone rewards reset. If you tap on "view rewards" you can see the timer for the 30 day tournament reset.

    After todays news I must get to thronebreaker in a months time. I’m still stuck on red skull in 6.1.1. What are my chances?

    My only real counters for red skull in 6.1.1 are 6* rank 1 gorr, or 5* rank 1 awakened knull. I’m willing to power knull up, but is he going to be a much better counter than a boosted Gorr to make it worthwhile? It’s a lot of resources. Thanks!

    Honestly, I think you're probably better trying your luck down a different path. Test a couple of the other paths and see if you have better counters for some other lanes.

    I was tempted by the Joe fixit route but the domino at the end scares the **** out of me 😅

    I took the iron man path next to Red Skull, also, use boosts if you can

    How did you get past the auto block etc? I think his specials are also unblockable and just insta kill me every time

    Try the Moon Knight / Guilly path. That seems to have the easiest defenders, and the nodes aren't too bad.

    I'm rooting for you.

    Looks ok when I get past moon knight but he just evades everything ha

    Your best champ for that is probably Iceman. Keep the Coldsnap debuffs on him and it prevents evade from activating.

    Exploring chapter 5 to try and get some more materials to rank up some champs to prepare myself more for chapter 6. Still having to use revives for the collector 😂 forgot how hard and annoying that fight is!
  • England73738England73738 Member Posts: 116
    Does anyone know where I can find a list of champs in 6* basic crystals at the moment? A good 6* would do wonders for my roster but honestly my last 5-6 pulls out of basic have been dreadful so wondering whether to save and go featured

    Maybe, next featured will have some good champs including the new champs Spiral, Scream, Jack and Dazzler

    It's up to you, but it's still a gamble even with the featured crystals, as there are always some duds thrown in too.
    Personally, I'd just stick with the basic crystals and keep praying for a God tier champ. You will pull one eventually, it just takes time.

    In terms of a list, there won't be one, as the basic crystals contain all champions, except the latest releases and champs that aren't a 6*.

    Only champs that aren't 6 stars are steve, quake labyrinth and magik (and I guess the new 2 star class symbiodes). You can get 6 star maestro but only from necropolis

    Collector is just the worst fight, even more than the others honestly, just because he's entirely RNG based.

    Imagine if we have a playable Collector, my god would he be an awful defender to face in BGs

    Thankfully I got chapter 2 fully explored so I don’t have to worry about him again! Just the unblockable specials completely mess you up no matter how well you think you’re playing the fight!

    I’m sitting on quite a lot of rank up materials for my level, can take my next 6 star to rank 2. I like abs man but I’ve got a maxed out 5* Chavez so wondering if it’s worth having 2 strong mystics or if it would be a waste of resources…really missing a really strong cosmic so may go with Angela even unduped
  • PantherusNZPantherusNZ Member Posts: 2,184 ★★★★★
    Unduped Angela still packs a punch and inflicts a lot of Armour Breaks, you just miss out on her Auto-Block avoidance which is a huge bit of utility.

    Even so she can handle Red Skull, but the key is spacing when he throws his SP1 so that you can punish it with a heavy - some do it better than others, Venom is amazing because he slides back just a bit further - I think Knull would do it well too because he's got great reach on his Heavy - his SP2 inflicts a lot of armour breaks, too.

    You're getting a lot of other good advice here though - definitely play around with who you have.

    Abs Man and Chavez are very different mystics - Chavez is about power control and punishing buffs, Abs Man is about immunities and maintaining his forms according to the fight. No harm in having both of them. Also Abs Man doesn't exist as a 7* yet so there's no wasted effort on him, long-term.

    The current six star featured is ridiculously stacked if you don’t have a deep roster yet. There are half a dozen ridiculous champs aside from the actual featured.

    Who would you guys be ranking up for push to cav? Can’t do bishop or kingpin as I don’t have tier 5 skill catalysts yet…human torch might be useful for mephisto on 6.1.1 but kinda want to focus on longevity of 6* champs
  • England73738England73738 Member Posts: 116
    Following on from the above, I finally have enough Stoneys to unlock either Precision or Cruelty. Which one should I prioritise? I have enough mastery points to max either of them out. Still working on Willpower.

    I would recommend Precision first, as it will increase the frequency of critical hits. Cruelty impacts the strength of those hit. So get more crits via precision, then make those crits more deadly with cruelty.

    Hey - fairly new to the game. Been playing about 2 weeks and I’m getting to grips with it. I’m level 34 and just reached conqueror. I had a couple of questions I hoped you guys could help answer!

    Deathless she hulk, I have 2 pieces out of 5…how do I get the rest? Google just says complete other in game activities, but which ones?

    6/7 star heroes…. I have 5-10 5 stars but obviously wanting to progress, how/when will I start getting higher rated heroes? I’m slowly building up 6* shards through alliance wars but as it stands it looks like it might take me 3/4months!

    Any other tips you think might be helpful would be great! Thanks!

    Wow!
    You should be grateful ur getting a 6* that quickly. Hopefully it will be someone great like Hercules, Apocalypse, Ghost, or Kitty.
    Just remember, a lot of ppl have been playing for years. If u compare urself to them, u will b despondent. Compare urself to those at ur level and progress at ur own pace. Remember, this game is meant to be a marathon that u can enjoy for years and not something u finish in few months.
    As u progress, feel free to change alliances and find alliances further along.
    As for 7*, I believe Kabam is giving everyone a 7* hero free in December to celebrate their 10 year anniversary.

    Just nebula, gambit and sabretooth to go in 6.1.1. Only 2 champs remaining but honestly now I’ve got past red skull I’m tempted to just use as many revives as needed so I don’t have to fight him with them nodes again 😀
