Thor (Ragnarok)

I have him awakened, sig 45. Max 5/50 as a 4*. Would he be a decent defender in AW defense? And if he is decent, what node should I put him on? I’ve had him for quite awhile now, I just don’t use him as much.

I only have his 3* so can't really say about AW. But if his fighting ability is anywhere near the equivalent of his "I need to use the bathroom" dancing ability then I'd say he probably gets an A+.

The only thing that makes him a good defender is that on some devices when he activates his powergain there is a huge lag spike so you can't properly land a special and that could screw you over.

I got screwed over by him on the power gain node at the top of path 1 (can't remember the number).
His abilities say he gets power gain when I hit a combo of 20 which can be stopped by knocking him down with a special.
He started gaining power at combo of 8 and hit s3 before I even new it was happening.

it's not your combo meter, he counts hits you have him in total up to 20
best nodes for him - stun immune (can parry on intercept), sp3 use. maybe those where opponent loses his energy with time or where he gains bar of power on opponent' sp use. but actually he's not that hard in def

I have thorag as a 5* R4 sig 130, placed him on awd kinetic reactor node as hes a very defensive champ, been pretty useful stacking a few kills along the way

I'm not an Alliance player; but I use Rags offensively all the time, and he can deal out some major damage in partnership with Hulk when Awakened, as all his attacks (and Shock debuffs) gain +60% damage during his Thunder God's Wrath stage. Which should last about 17 seconds at your Sig level.

Once you've inflicted an armour break , and your Combo over 40, every SP1 will inflict Stun and cause +250% Physical Damage. This is unlikely to happen when he's being controlled by an AI, unless there some node that gives Combo Shield (which I doubt).

Have you considered trying him in an offensive role? You might find you're pleasantly surprised.

I’ve never thought of using him for offense really...thank you. I’ll try this out
