Potential Delay to v44.1 Launch

We are currently working through some issues that may affect the release window of v44.1. This means that the update may not release on Monday as it usually does. We are working to resolve the issue holding us up as quickly as possible, but will keep you all updated, especially if the delay results in any changes to the content release schedule.

Does anyone have any tips for avoiding Starburst Damage in Act 4? It really takes off too much health off my champs

    You can use Gulk. Face Me will mitigate Starburst damage.

    It's important to understand how Starburst works. The closer the enemy is to death, the more damage you'll take.

    Knowing this, you could use someone like Deadpool, Wolverine, or X-23. All of them get more regen as they store power. If you hold your specials, this will help to offset Starburst.

    Additionally, you could try to use champs capable of big burst damage to finish the fight. Use champs who have devastating L2's or L3's and unleash them when you know you'll finish them. Phoenix, Hulkbuster, Hulk, many others work well with this method. Using Recoil with this method will actually help you as the goal is to finish them before the recoil damage takes effect.

    Good luck.

    My answer is somebody with big SP damage and/or regen (for ex. Rogue, Hyperion). Just keep their HP as high as possible and then liquidate them as fast as possible.

    U cannot avoid the damage...although champs like gulk(face me) and duped magik(limbo recovers health lost due to starburst) help u mitigate the damage u are inflicted with...other than that as suggested earlier go for regen champs (wolvie,x23 are really good options) to regen health or just go for high burst champs...ideally I would suggest completing(including exploration) the other chapters while strengthening Ur roster and then power through it with an improved roster later on
