1. Durability - Huge health Pool and damage cap for single hit.
2. Strength - High Crit Damage and Rating.
3. Guns - Critical Bleeds
4. Hellfire Chains - Will provide several immunities
5. Hellfire Manipulation - incinerate debuff
6. Cosmic Energy - decrease 45% energy attacks, also healing buff
7. Cosmic Penance Stare - powerful sp3, will decrease opp ability accuracy by 100% for 60 sec and also gains a fury buff 125% attack rating for 45 sec and also an armor break for the duration of the fury.
Skill is easily the worst class imo.
And that’s fine. Point of games in general.
Forgot aarkus too..
The recent cosmic champions have had a pattern, and when I say recent, I mean since 2019 onward. With the exception of CMM and Cull, all of the cosmics have been defense focused. Let’s look at each one:
Annihilus can actually hit hard with 10+ furies but this is difficult to achieve so he is mostly used as a defender.
Arrkus is also decent on offense, being a combo of Hyperion, Medusa and iceman. The problem is that he is a lesser version of them. He’s not a bad attacker, but there’s not much reason to use him over better options. As a defender, he can be tricky
Silver surfer has good damage but he doesn’t live up to expectations or the other top cosmic options. His play style can output good numbers but it’s clear that he has been heavily balanced to avoid being to OP. His numbers seem like they’ve been cut down.
Nova is average at best. He has some decent damage but it requires a ramp up. Ultimately, it’s just not worth it so he’s left on defense with his auto block.
Terrax has interesting utility but his damage makes it irrelevant. He will mostly be used as a defender
Air walker has some damage and nothing else. He requires 2 fights before reaching his full potential and against hard content, those 2 fights can drag. His full potential doesn’t justify his ramp up. Also he has the second lowest attack value in game.
The recent cosmic champions are overly balanced attackers with defensive utility. All of these champs mentioned inflict armor break, and in some cases, it’s an unavoidable armor break. This serves to counter ghost but in most cases, it’s not a big enough armor break to amplify the damage. The mystic class has become one of the strongest so there are plenty of counters. There is no reason to be afraid of making a powerful cosmic champion.
Despite how sparse recent tech releases have been they've all been good so far
cosmic champions in 2020 = wet noodles
mystic champions this year = all very good
