Skill based game vs the champion 6.2.6 ( suggestions we don’t all have cap )

So most of us has came up against the champion and resided to the fact that we’re more than likely going to need capiw to clear the last 10%

Massive damage though the block wiped me out with everyone I tired and I came out absolutely no point in reviving or buying unit packs 👎🏼 ( running multiple 5/65s fully boosted)

6.2 was never going to be easy but we got to the boss, to have our progress halted by not having a certain champion, this is terrible game design imo (I’m all for champ restrictions in Act 6 and gated paths , it’ll extend the lifespan of this game “all good” 👍🏼)

Kabam mentioned in the 6.2 release notes that we’ll be able to get a initial clear when these gates are added but it doesn't seem to be the the case. The last fight is basically gated to having cap IW.

So what would make this skill based ?

We still need a tough fight but we need a fair fight.

If they made it so you could actually dex off the special it would be fine, and also fix the bug of 0 damage once the charges are gone of course lol.

I think if this suggestion were to happen they’d have to bring it to 10 charges

You can dex out of the special 1 without needing to take block damage. HobbitCrom already showed how it can be done. Do a few duels to practice.

Thanks for that .... nice block damage reduction he took with cap on the way to getting him down 👍🏼 😂

Any links to anyone doing it without cap of duped SS ?

🤦🏻‍♂️ The narrowness..

Yeah, after blowing 5 revives on Cap IW. Even in that he blocked a few hits here and there that would've been fatal for anyone who's not Cap.

You’re welcome. Doesn’t require Cpt.

You’re welcome.

But we're not allowed to use 3* so how does this help us?

Tried it with different champs seems to only work with champs with shallow dash backs

I didn’t record it but did Champion with with a r1 unawakend MS with 2 md, suicides and NF w/synergy to heal from the poison. It took a lot of resources to figure out how to make it work and learning to dex his specials while up way past my bedtime.

Basically get 5 souls before Champion blow him up till 10% then survive until after his first set of buffs expire giving you 2 bars of power. You then pay attention to his primal fury and launch the s2 just after he goes unstoppable; this mitigates block damage and removes unstoppable.

Are your for real you come into a post about capiw and and the champion ...

You then tell me to look up a video of capiw taking down the champion as a option 🙄

I then ask you if you have any links to anyone else where done it without cap iw or a duped supreme ???

You post me a link to someone doing it with a duped sim supreme 🤤

Wake up have some coffee 👍🏼

It’s the technique of evading his sp1 without taking any damage. Your argument was CptIW is required because you take too much block damage, no?

Lol. I read the full post and all it says is “Need CptIW otherwise can’t clear Champion”.

Using a 3* vs a 6* R2 Champion 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Actually, you know what.. doesn’t matter. I’m not the one having problems with this fight.

Good luck and all the best.

Thanks @xNig 😂 I’ll rank Morningstar and do it when the bugs have been fixed ....

I’ll be fine

The main thing is you’ve completely missed the point of this post, think about how many people play this game ( at this level ) and then think about how many of those have capiw, Morningstar and Sim supreme at r4 and above.

My point in making this post is that the game is becoming less skill based.

This is the first fight of its kind and it’s ( imo ) a bad path to go down.

Previous “ tricky “ boss fights

Collector - skill based
Nameless - skill based
LOL Maestro - skill based
Act 5 Ultron - skill based
Maze champion - skill based

What if RNG never gives you the above champs ? Should your progress be stopped because of something that is random and out of your hands ?

Since I’ve been playing I’ve never known a fight that couldn’t be done 1 of 2 ways.

1- Pure skill.👍🏼
2 - The expensive way revives / health pots and units. 👎🏼

Maybe put your ego to one side and look at the bigger picture 😉

Collector is as unit based as it gets besides that everything you said is true.

The collector can be done in 1 shot, a few revives max

It isn't a one shot if you have to revive.
Everyone on that list can be killed using only one champion, for the collector you need a few revives and i know there are a few one shots of him on youtube but those are done with rank 4 or 5 5* which you don't usually have when you get to him.

That's why i'd say The Collector is a unit based fight and not a skill based one.
