9.1.4 Black Widow ignores heal block :/

I followed the description, constant heals so I’ll need a heal block champ…

Lady Deathstrike didn’t work
Scorpion was stuck in a endless healing battle

What part am I missing here that Kabam failed to fully outline in the description?

P.s do we get our revives back for failing to provide a how-to guide?

    Not really sure why LDS didn't work, but this is actually a very cheese-able fight. I used 6r3 (at the time) Void, reversed the healing and just took advantage of it. She melted in no time.

    Void is probably the best option, but sandman and leader are pretty good for that fight as well.

    From what I remember trying LDS first myself too, it's just a really hard fight to constantly maintain the heal block. And then the second it's gone, she heals like crazy.

    This was going to be my guess — that heal block is actually working fine, but the uptime on the heal block is not consistent enough.

    OP, do you have points in despair?

    I got the 1 point in despair, went all out on maxing willpower, I got a core spare so might take a point out of defence for it

    When I did it, I tried Void and it didn't work, so I just nuked her with Hulk. It took 4 revives, probably wouldn't recommend this method.

    By the way, the nodes aren't really "how to guides," and Kabam only gives revive compensation for when there is a glitch, not just a difficult fight that's running how it's intended to be.
    Think of the nodes as the rules of the game, and the how to guides are the best tactics which you must find yourself or use outside resources like youtube, your alliance, or forums like this.

    Oh wild - I just posted a thread asking for help with this one today too lol

    I don't understand how everyone is saying Void cheeses the fight?

    I have tried 4 times now with Void and I will do the method everyone says. Don't hit, just parry. Don't intercept. Once she gets two Petrifies on her watch her melt (and I have Despair mastery) -

    BUT the issue is once you get max Intimidating Prescences, which you can't control, they all get removed and then any damage you did just disappears before your eyes when she goes from like 20% health all the way back up to 100% in seconds.

    This is incredibly frustrating - especially when there's so few viable options, and the one everyone says works I just can't get to cooperate.

    Is your Void unawakened? You need the sig ability.

    Round 2 - an R5 sig 200 Anti-venom should really get this fight done.


  • i13i13 Member Posts: 221 ★
    That really hurt my thumbs, I think I have blisters! Anti-venom may take a hell of long time to build up, but he gets the job done 👍🏻

    Try champs with passive heal blocks.

    Human torch with nova. Rmags with synergy. Warlock.

    Those won’t get removed by the node.

    Try CapBeard with a tech on the team, literally just parry.
    To use Void need him duped.
    There Morbius and She Hulk as well with Petrify

    Folks, OP already succeeded, with Anti-Venom no less. Well done!

    CAIW with tech synergy, you can swap any other champ you carry in the swap node, just sure to carry a tech, then just parry and look how she dies.

    Good job using AntVenom. Here's how I did it with Void. When he (FINALLY) places just one petrify, she'll start melting.

    If you have 2 or 3 20% revives to spare and no great counter, I'd suggest going in with Hercules.

    Edit: NVM! Good that you did it.
