There are counters but the difficulty of this mini is way to high for the tier that map 5 should be. This map should be where max 4* and r4 5* have a chance.
All 3 of my alliances groups will finish day 2 because we are taking turns chipping him down.
I timed out with a max* 99 sig Luke Cage and only did 40% damage to the second mini. Was relieved when I did so I could do damage again to him.
I have all of the aforementioned characters and it is rng based. Massive amounts of people quitting. I really think that's what kabam is going for. The 1 % can play the 1 %
Start the fight without gaining power, without you heal, without your abilities, that is, Hyperion fills E3 and is over, this nod destroys what can be counter against him. Kabam lost his notion on the nodes of this Hyperion. Clearly want to see people spend up on the M5
With all due respect... Luke cage duped Iceman Ghost with hood Can all tank sp3
Hood Symbiote supreme Morningstar Void (with some luck on debuffs) All have abilities that nullify or stop his powergain
There's probably alot more than im just thinking off the top of my head! Map 5 is only 8 paths generally, so have a decidated person to bring a champ for hyperion, that's how we've managed to get through it (we run 665 so far this week)
That being said... Without a solid counter it is a very difficult fight! And the node cripples his main 2 counters in magik and void! And the rewards increase do not match the difficulty increase... Definitely think overall that emphatic lock node needs to be replaced by something else!
Alpha Scorpion
Ice aromer wil be gone from the star of the figth to you get a sp3 so don’t put him in that becasse of face steal
Iceman doesn’t work because if fate seal Also this Hyperion is way too hard for map 5 difficultly especially as they didn’t update anything with map 5
I see this as a major win. It motivates players to want to move up to Map 6. This also would require them to need more resources and items. Kabam gets more money and the players get better rewards and better at the game by playing more. It’s a win for both parties 👍
Are you grounded wisdom like seriously “ITS A MAJOR WIN WE HAVE TO SPEND MORE” how is this a win it is literally an increase in difficulty without increase in rewards
I think your missing my point. This motivates people to want to spend because they get to have a better game experience doing Map 6. Logically I’d like to think that people want to spend because of the amazing work Kabam does at occupying our free time and grinding for more resources to do Map 6 does just that, only improved.
How can you said motivates if map6 needs more time requirement than map5. We choice map that fit our time and map6 is out of option. Doing map6 only cause failure so its not better game experience. Sorry I dont think its amazing.
Agreed, having that power lock at the start of the fight with spite is what makes it stupid.
Yes there are counters. But remember MCOC is a game of luck not every one has your luck and not everyone has those counters.
Luckily I have 2 counters, unfortunately due to the nodes they both haven't worked for me. Lol
I have magik, but I'm not getting to my sp2 cos I am power locked. Oh look he's at sp3 and I've barely touched him.
I have void and 4x I have fought him with void, and yes of course never got a petrify before taking the sp3. On top of that my void is r5 with 33k health still one sp3 and dead. Lol
empathetic lock should definitely be removed or shared with hyperion or make it so buffs and debuffs are not in effect for either champion but clearly this is intended for a cash grab if on day 2 this hype drops a full health 4/55 void with one sp3 the first 20 seconds because all he did was stand back and block all day long
The Hyperion in AQ is too hard and just completely unfair with the combination of nodes present . This does not make any sense . I am suggesting few changes which need to be done ASAP.!!!!! 1- Remove epathic lock altogether or 2- put empathic lock on both the defender and the attacker...the way it is now does not make any sense. 3-Power drain characters are useless against him in this state and you are restricting the possible champs to take him down to a very small group. 4- Please understand with the changes in AW , which promote more diversity among attackers used..this kind of approach is just taking away the same concept and restricting the champs that can be used 5- LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT POINT - MAKE HYPERION MORE AGGRESSIVE AT USING SPECIALS ....if empathic lock is on, we need to bait him....it works 50% of the time but the rest of the times he just will not throw specials that does not make any sense. Sometimes we might get hit 2-3 times and get backed into corner , then how are we supposed to redeem the fight back or get any second chance. He comes at us but just does not throw specials ....... he will stand there at times... specially in AQ .THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE AQ AI , I THINK HYPERION IS OKAY BUT NOT WITH THE NODES THAT HE HAS ON HIM RIGHT NOW...MAKES NO SENSE. NO SKILL ONLY LUCK INVOLVED IN THIS . PLEASE RECTIFY THIS AND TAKE A LOOK IF SOMETHING CAN BE DONE.
In between 10 people surely 1 will have 4* or 5* duped gwenpool.
Keep calm and carry on.
Ywah i have to agree that kabam ia well of their sugarnips when they made changes to aq and aw, but for most part things have answers, no need to panic on this hype anyways.
Whoever designed nodes for map5 Hyperion..pure evil..I really enjoy taking on mini bosses but this Hyperion has killed all the excitement for me ..really don't know what they want to prove you die just for starting the fight spite and oscillate node for already ridiculous power gain on hyperion
This is another RNG based option but she hulk can work.really well if u are able to stack up a couple of furies quickly...I have been able to take down these hype minis with her but it's definitely RNG based as she cannot use sp1 for the first 20 seconds and it's only an 11% chance to gain those furies with normal hits..but once u stack up furies he starts throwing specials even in armour phase

Time can be made, even if it means finding a different job. Failure isn’t necessarily a bad thing because that often leads to rethinking what your doing wrong and how to do better.
I read this as similar to when Kabam Miike tried to justify why AQ timers shouldn't be 30mins instead of an hour. At least you're kidding though
This isnt a cash grab, map 5 bosses are not cash grabs because map 5 players aren't whales. Its overtuned and should be reduced to a comprable difficulty of the other 2 bosses.

You dont have to be a whale to spend. I dont know why people believe only 2 types of players exist: whales and f2p. Gonna hit some truthposting but its a spectrum of players, not binary
Oscillate is a problem on the 2nd hyp. Hyp will really only hold block and gain power during the armor phase of oscillate. You pretty much need a sp3 tank champ or you will die. Also take iceman off that list because empathetic lock fate seals ice armor and I wasn't able to get it back.
sym supreme can work with his shield blessing, luke cage. Haven't tried magik on that second hyp, but she is also at a disadvantage bc of that 20 second power lock. The number of counters is a lot slimmer compared to the previous map 5 bosses which mad many many counters.

3 x R5 5*s can’t take a mini boss in AQ down?
Makes Maestro in LOL look too easy...

1- Remove epathic lock altogether or

3-Power drain characters are useless against him in this state and you are restricting the possible champs to take him down to a very small group.
4- Please understand with the changes in AW , which promote more diversity among attackers used..this kind of approach is just taking away the same concept and restricting the champs that can be used

Hope this helped.
Meanwhile try to grow some brain coz I honestly don’t know why you even exist, Kabam.
He just needs 1 sp3 and you’re dead.
This killed me. Staggers can’t keep up with his powergain.
Next time I bring this guy see if I have any better luck. 😕
