Welp, I promised this one would be pretty crazy in my last guide, and I'm not kidding. Strap in as I (finally!) write about my experiences with the Carina's Challengers run!
Once again, usual disclaimer that these guides won't go too into detail regarding the necropolis specific nodes. Check out my first clear guides for more details.
The Squad:
7* R2 sig 40 guilly 2099 with 4* vision relic
7* R1 unduped crossbones, no relic
7* R1 sig 20 falcon, no relic
7* R1 sig 60 void, 3* spidey 2099 relic
6* R5 sig 200 ascended mole man, 5* BP relic
The Stash:
11823 units
20 L1 revives
6 L2 revives
5 L3 revives
432 free crystals
Bunch of L4 and L5 potions from opening some free crystals before the run
Masteries:
Same setup as for my previous challenge runs, had max despair for void. Was also running the 30 minute attack, health and champion boosters after my first try on jubilee
DISCLAIMER: DO NOT USE THE GUILLY 2099 PREFIGHTS. You will need these to power drain on your sp1 which is critical to a lot of fights.
Journey to Sunspot:
Jubilee is insanely easy with guilly 2099 provided you have the right strategy. Basically, you don't want jubilee to throw a single special attack as it will give her the fireworks surge and consequently the annoying power gain. Do 4 hit combos and hold block immediately after, then either reparry or bait a heavy to get an opening. Use sp1 when jubilee is close to or at a sp3 to keep her power controlled, then just rinse and repeat until someone dies. 1 revive spent here, solo is absolutely possible if you are fully boosted on the first try.
Ibom is also quite easy. Basically, you want to push him to sp2, then bait it out to trigger the toxic aura and consume his poisons. If he gets too many self poisons, you get acid burned and probably get rekt. Use sp2 to rapidly build your damage and you should absolutely melt this guy. Solo with guilly 2099.
Diablo is a joke. Use void, reverse his healing from the sp1 (don't punish it so that you can also reverse the regen he gets from drinking), and play around the concoctions. Easy solo here.
Squirrel Girl is also very easy. Time your knockdowns so you don't get too many ruptures, spam sp2 and win. Solo with guilly 2099.
Silver Centurion is also quite easy with guilly 2099. Use the same strategy as on Jubilee to play around lock on and you'll be good. Fairly close solo here.
Spidey 2099 is easily the hardest fight on the path. You can't use guilly since you won't survive too long because of the ruptures. I threw xbones, void and falcon at the guy and took off around 20%, then I went absolutely ham with mole man. With mole man, enter frenzy asap, then take advantage of the sig ability to deal big damage while unstoppable. I would block a hit, then throw a heavy to get a big juicy crit, and I also threw my sp2 while unstoppable to deal big damage. Keep frenzy up and just keep nuking until you die. 2 revives spent here, expect quite a bit more if your mole man isn't max sig or high rank.
And lastly, Sunspot was easy. Just don't use specials while nova flames are active and it's a ridiculously easy fight with guilly 2099. Got a solo here to finish things off.
And that's it! Pretty sure that's the cheapest necro half path I have ever done!
The Final Cost:
3 L2 revives
Quite a few L4 and L5 potions
10 free crystals
Couple of 30 minute boosters, I was working that day so I didn't have time to use the 1 hour ones.
The Rewards:
Pulled nova from my titan crystal. F*ck.
Pulled lady deathstrike from my 7* basic crystal. Not bad at all.
Final Thoughts and Tips:
1. BOOST. Most of these guilly 2099 fights definitely would not have been solos if I wasn't boosted, push her damage as much as possible during this challenge!
2. For the guilly 2099 fights, try to end a fight with an sp3 so you can cut down on your ramp up in the next fight. However, it's totally fine if you can't, I wasn't able to get a single sp3 off once lol.
3. If you don't have mole man ranked or duped high enough, I reckon a duped, high rank crossbones can also work for spidey. Do be prepared to spend some revives there though.
4. Falcon was absolute filler this run, so you could bring in some other high rank attacker if you wanted to.
5. I already ran the God/Cul's Worthy challenge, will post a guide here soon! Spoiler alert, we got some pretty crazy fights in there as well...
Thanks for reading, hope this helped y'all!

And don't expect that dimensional beings guide a while lol. Heard a lot of bad things about that challenge and I want to actually build a good item stash before I go in
Yes she can. As long as you can hold a combo (or use heavies to increase combo shield).
I'd personally r2 crossbones as I won't use guilly99 after this, but I do occasionally use crossbones. If you don't care about future use of champs, though, then guilly.
Speaking of Shang Chi, would 7*r2 work better than. 6*r5a Mole man? I'd rather not put the r5 resources into 6*, but if it'll save resource or time. I'll do it
Shang is more widely available as a 7* than moleman.
I just did this run and had both Moleman and Shang Chi on my team. Both managed to take around roughly the same amount of health off before getting knocked out. Ultimately I did decide to just use revives on Moleman for the rest of the fight, because like you said, it’s a less complicated fight with Moleman.
