Back Issues #3: Polar Opposites

Once upon a time, a mutant of incredible power sought to shatter the Battlerealm and free his kin through any means necessary. Surprisingly, the one who opposed him most greatly was himself!

Introducing, Back Issues #3: Polar Opposites!

Available 10am PT, Wednesday August 14th!

As the Contest has grown and evolved we’ve introduced many Event Quests, each with their own unique stories, and many that have expanded on the mythos of The Battlerealm and The Contest of Champions. We want to give Veteran Summoners a way to relive those moments, and newer ones that weren’t with us at the time a chance to experience the stories of the Contest that they had missed out on!

This Event Quest is available in TWO difficulties:

CLASSIC difficulty is a recreation of the original quest. While not completely 1:1, the layouts, difficulty, and dialogue are all the same as you remember. Take a stroll down memory lane and see how far you've come, or experience a quest you never got the chance to play!

VARIANT difficulty is a new spin on the quest, available for Summoners level 45 and up. This version features more of a challenge, new opponents, updated map layouts, and new combat effects for the boss fights. This quest will test even the mightiest of Summoners, so be prepared! You can find out more about the challenges you will face in Variant Difficulty in our latest Dev Diary post here: https://playcontestofchampions.com/dev-diary-added-difficulty/

The Variant Challenges!

Variant Difficulty will test not only your skills, but your knowledge of Champion abilities, immunities, resistances, and counters! Those who rely on only a few Champions will find the need to diversify.

Like Back Issues #2, we’re going to be encouraging the use of certain Champions. This time, you’ll want to take advantage of the Composite Construction (All Tech Champions in this fight are immune to Ability Accuracy Modification) and Stack Overflow (Each Tech Champion on the Attacker's Team increase the Attacker's Debuffs Duration by X%.) Global Nodes to boost the power of your Tech Champions!

For even more of a power up, use the Mutant hunting Sentinel to take advantage of the brand new “Apex Manufacture” Global Node geared specifically to the Mutant hunting Sentinel! Apex Manufacture allows Sentinel to gain Analysis Charges even faster, and to deal bonus True Damage per Analysis Charge!

Take a look at the new Buffs you’ll be combating or benefiting from:

These are in addition to other nodes that you have already experienced.

Rewards:

This Back Issue Quest features 6 Individual Quests over 3 Chapters, unlike Back Issues #1 and #2, which featured 9. Quest Rewards reflect this.

NOTE: Colossus is a Final Boss and Old Man Logan is a Mini-Boss encounter in this Variant Difficulty. We have tuned the difficulty of this Content to compensate for where we believe their rework will land them in terms of difficulty. They will be updated when their rework is complete. Summoners that complete this before the rework will have the chance to fight their current kit.

Anything you wanna ask guys.

Finished it up a couple days ago, finally got the red stone for aegon, and my havok is going to get r5 with the stone soon! It was the easiest one, still can't explore Ultron's assault, spend too much resources on every path. Explored this one with only 1.5k units

Something I noticed was an electro was immune to aa reduction where nowhere on his nodes did it state it
Combo lock and counter tactics plus the global nodes

Epistriatus

So there’s a Void with the long distance relationship node in the final chapter. Seems he does some damage with every debuff you get from above mentioned node (some = a lot). Any tips would be greatly appreciated 😄

I used my r5 Void against that Void. Just boost up ‘cause that dot damage is no joke. I’d say a hard-hitter with a large health pool and boosts active even if it takes you a couple of revives ‘cause that’s one of the few “fun and interactive” fights in V3. Good luck!

If you happen to have Cap with a high sig you can pair with a skill teammate and shrug the debuffs. Probably the best option for this fight, I'm far from the best player out there and I was able to solo it without much issue.

Thanks for the tips guys, I’ll try cap beardo.

Mid combo over and over again The Thing is always able to launch a special and wrecks me. This is ridiculous.

Epistriatus

She Hulk.

I’m not that familiair with She-Hulk (far from it actually)🤔. What does she bring to that fight with Void which makes her usefull?

I brought 4* max Ægon, collected some combo with taskmaster and jumped to void. Tenacity forever. One shot.

Epistriatus

Thanks for the tips every1. I used cap beardo with skill synergie, had to play it slow(er) than my 1st run, but one-shot him with cap. Done with this Variant, now on (or is it back?) to Variant 1.

She has a % chance to remove any debuff when striking a science opponent (it's her sig ability).
