They replaced symbiods, who could bleed, with sentinels, who are immune. So, bleeders like Wolverine, X-23, GP, Blade are «no longer so effective». I think it is a logic conclusion...
This is still a piss poor answer. Are. Sentinels. The. Only. Champ. You. Fight. In. AQ? No you say? Then they work just fine. I bring my Wolverine and still find great use for him. Blade activates Danger Sense against Sentinels increasing attack. No issues there either.
Agreed
Everyone used him for bleed. The sentinel fights are too long for wolvie. They will get analysis or time out before the end.
Right.Thanks, I don't do map 5,that's why
Right. The same with X-23...
The trick part with MS is going to be her bleed. I’m more concerned that bleed immune champs are going to time out due to not being able to do enough damage in time.
Very true. Not sure what her bleed gets scaled up to due to node buffs. Rouge could be a good counter as she can shake them off. X-23 could be good too with regen and her cruelty stacks but just don't let her get to L2 with 5 stacks.
These counters are the reason I like playing with Morningstar as well. Has great utility.
.... I can't believe I just said that.
Hopefully MS will play a bit more aggressively so he can take her down in one go.
Challenge can be a very good thing, just like change. The problem is this has been changed with the idea that there are even more reasons to spend your money on units.
The immediate retort I'll receive is to arena grind, but I can't do that running a small business and a non-profit. Perhaps it's my own fault for not having the time to commit, but I once found this game really fun. Now I just see obvious attempts to force 5x5 alliances to need to spend money. With AW season rewards and the overpowering of AQ sentinels, it just seems like there's far less chance to participate unless you've got hours a day to burn, or you're willing to open your wallet.
There are other ways to get people to spend their money, like $1 crystals, better daily card deals. People are already spending, so why force more hands? Offering Gold Rush and Halls of Healing more often would allow us the chance to work on those rosters you've jostled so much.
I'm one person and that doesn't make much difference but I seem to have a popular opinion so at least I can feel good about that.

I have a maxed 4* 5/50 maxed sig X23 and use her in AQ all the time, she gains and stacks cruelty against bleed immune champs which raise her crit damage to 146 for 8 secs, she has been useful for me in AQ and has not been an issue with sentinels, yes its a slightly longer fight but still not an issue (I'm in an 11m ally with a starting prestige of 6k for AQ)..
or maybe use different champs that are effective against sentinels (anyone with armor break) like duped Thor, IF, Medusa, there are other champs that are effective against sentinels. Also, practice, find a maxed sentinel for a duel target and practice, and since evade and parry are still an issue/bug learn to intercept them, don't rely on just parry. I've been playing this game since before masteries and before parry and evade and still don't rely heavily on parry..intercept and bait specials sentinel L1 is completely evadable.
Really annoying doing this five days a week.
Bottom line is it is all about money. So how many people will quit the game? That's the only way they'll change it back or nerf the Sentinels.
Need to kill between 6 and 10 a day in aq so dull come on kabam make them random champs or something .all you have done is make the daily grind more of a grind
But you asked why they wouldn't be less effective and he told you because they are bleed immune. That would be less effective, because you can't use them as often. He didn't say completely uneffective. It's a fact they're less effective sincewell over 2/3 of the map is bleed immune, debuff immune.. speaking of debuff immune, kabam has specifically mentioned sentinels being able to melt away with class advantage.. exactly what bleed immune skill champ am I supposed to take against science sentinel on heal block path? I know I have the almighty LC "sigh", whom is the only science champ who works for that mystic sentinel... amaxing options there to... also by the way, whoever mentioned blade as ineffective, hasn't fought a sentinel with him. He is still better against them than most.
