Stream Recap - December 4, 2024

Isophyne/Deathless Thanos

Isophyne can nullify frequently, and can inflict Energy Vulnerability. She has a hard hitting sp2 boosted by lots of furies, and inflicts Marked when the opponent is below 10%. She has the fractured power bar, which lets her choose which special, and consequently which utility, to use. She is expected to shine in buff heavy matchups, especially as a serpent counter.

Full Abilities

Deathless Thanos can heavy from combo, and inflicts Armor Shattered. He has access to Energize and Fury buffs, and can go unstoppable on block. The sp2 inflicts lots of DOT, and has the illusion projectiles similar to Nameless Thanos. He also has access to Panic debuffs when unstoppable, and reduces armor chance by 200%. He will be obtainable in January after doing something with all the previous Deathless


Sentinel/Deadpool X-Force/Sentry

Sentinel inflicts Intimidate on heavy to build analysis faster, and he gains more analysis compared to before. He is now Armor Break, Coldsnap, and Frostbite immune. You can use his sp3 once per quest to refill his health to 100%. The potency of his analysis effects have been bumped up and has some additional defensive abilities.

Deadpool builds his charges from his first and third light, and can stack tons of bleed debuffs. When his bleeds are purified, cleansed, or cleared by a Life Model Decoy, they're replaced with passive 'Shbleed Dooboofs' that deal the damage regardless. He also has access to Daunted. His is expected to do well offensively in competitive content

Sentry is now immune to Nullify, Fate Seal, and Incinerate. He can build lots of Bulwark and inflicts debuffs that offer huge amounts of utility. He ramps throughout a quest, and cycles between 3 different modes. He is anticipated to be extremely good in incursions, and long form everest content.

Full Abilities

Buffs will be live in the patch next week

    Thanks as always for the summary @Ackbar67 . Did they mention anything about duping Isophyne in content given that she is not going to be in the Titan?
  • ILoveDrDoomILoveDrDoom Member Posts: 47
    Can someone confirm if I can just use a 7 star cosmic or 7 star generic awakening gem on Deathless Thanos? I don't want to do another full run of Neocropolis lol?

    Yes. This is just a alternative way of awakening i’m pretty sure.

    Is full run doing one full path or are we talking about fully exploring it again? (Sure hope it is the former and not the latter)

    Doing one of the paths with a full deathless team.

    Even though she's not in the titan, she'll be entering the basic with the upcoming batch including Spiral, Dazzler, and Rintrah.

    As someone who got deathless guillotine and king groot too late for the dupe, I’m a bit worried their sig is going to be necessary for a necropolis run

    I assume I wasn't the only one with constant "your message was not sent due to sending messages too fast" bug, right? I wasn't even sending any messages at all apart from the codes.

    Happened in every single message it seems, couldn't participate in the giveaways.

    Did they say when they will be releasing the Banquet solo and alliance event tiers and rewards? Last year they released the info early - ahead of the banquet.

    Trying to decide on my last potential unit investment on the cyber week deals.

    There will be a quest/event in January that you use the other 4 deathless to complete to earn him

    So apparently:
    1 - Do one of the new necropolis challenges in December (obviously not the deathless one) to get the final She Hulk piece
    2 - Do some content in January with the 4 to get Thanos
    3 - Do the Necropolis run with all 5 of them - likely to dup Thanos

    He won't be coming until January anyway, so I suspect they want to hold off on that info.

    I think i heard them say that after banquet, even some tb players would have a r3 7*. Did I hear that correct or was I hallucinating.

    Thanks for the recap.
    Was there anything mentioned about the banquet milestones? Or what’s the minimum units needed?
  • PantherusNZPantherusNZ Member Posts: 2,264 ★★★★★
    Huh...actually makes me glad I haven't explored Necropolis yet...
  • MalchaeisMalchaeis Member Posts: 248 ★★
    All I know is that there better be an in game epic cut scene when the deathless summon Thanos. Looking at you Kabam. End game content requires an End game cinematic.

    They did. Probably because TB+ can get the new banquet crystals.
