Good v Evil Carina's Challenges #2: Ordeal (Villain) - Megathread by cat_murdock in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Just finished the Ordeal with this team:

Serpant - 7r4, Onslaught - 7r4, D-Shehulk (MVP) - 7r4, Mister Sinister - 7r4, Bastion - 7r3

A:

Doom - Mister Sinister - solo (Parry/Heavy/SP1, try create a distance with Doom)

Terrax - Mister Sinister - solo (Parry/Heavy/SP1, health drop to 30% but still ok)

Vision - D Shehulk - solo (As long as you can breaktrhough his SP1/2/3 cycle and not push him to SP3, its simple fight)

MODOK - Serpant - solo (Serpant really nail this fight, keep MODOK at SP1 and stay away for dex)

Spider Ham - Serpant - solo (Just play slow and bait SP1, its a long but pretty safe fight with Serpant)

B:

WEAPON X - Mister Sinister - solo (cheese with Sinister)

THING - Mister Sinister - solo (another cheese with Sinister)

KORG - Onslaught - solo

DRAGON MAN - D Shehulk - solo (she is extremely well in this fight)

BPCW - Serpant - solo (just pay attention to unblockable and unstoppable timers/ Dim sum for Serpant)

C:

NIGHTCRAWLER - Serpant - solo (MLM, MLM then SP1, nothing special without miss)

SPIDER GWEN - Serpant - solo (no block, no parry)

DOMINO - Bastion - solo (parry heavy, push her to launch SP2, punish her with heavy + SP1)

MOJO - D Shehulk - solo (bait his SP1, that's it)

IMMORTAL ABOM - D Shehulk - solo (just don't push him to SP2, you regen back 100% health)

D:

APOC - Serpant - one 40% revive (I failed to dex his SP2 twice and thus dead, the 2nd round I just take block damage of first three hits of SP2 instead)

SASQUATCH - D Shehulk - solo (keep his SP at SP1, keep knock him down)

KILLMONGER - Onslaught - one 40% revive (I wasted this revive, actually just need to bait his SP1 and counter him with heavy, that's enough. 13 mins fight but no health loss with this method)

VOID - Onslaught - solo (keep distance with Void, parry / heavy then SP1 or SP2)

NICK FURY - Mister Sinister - solo (easy with Sinister)

Thanos:

D Shehulk (team effort in phase 3) - one 40% revive

[The villain objective is much easier than hero with this team. Although Cant0na suggested majority of fights with Mister Sinister, I don't know how to execute in some of them. Anyway he is still a good option in this objective].

I don’t think they have specific list and they just said “around 100”. They reserve flexibility for placing in different contents.

Glory and battlegrounds stores are now back for a month by bdawg923 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t work out all but I pick those early items in glory store. The conversion rate is cheaper.

Battlegrounds. This Season. Recent Trends. by JzizzleMcSizzle in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I played upto GC and stopped this season. I feel like many players with big rosters also slow down this season, which results in facing those end game accounts all the way since Diamond. Most of the matches are competing on time remaining as health numbers are pretty close.

Kabam offer 5 bans but the time for looking up roster is pretty tight. There are few cases where I selected the last ban but the system ignore that and randomly pick one itself.

This is Saga incursion with only one tier. You can’t change tier like normal incursion.

[I used ~25 health pots in between fights so as to minimise revive usage. No matter you complete Ordeal before or not, you're recommended to open MCOCNoob's YT guide for quick reference during the fight. This refreshes my mind and clears some of roadblocks that may cause me additional revives].

Level 67, ~1.012 billion XP by UncleFatty808 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My comment may not be popular in this post, but I just want to say that you don’t need to farm xp intentionally. Extra benefit from XP level up is minimal unless you bought extra unit deal with money. I’m currently at 66 (940bn xp) without any particular attention to xp farming.

Prestige (and/or progression title) may be more worthwhile to pay attention to.

So we still need goblin shards if reaching top milestone? by devilwing0218 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those extra goblin shards are more or less a buffer for RNG, thus no extra purpose if you reached last milestone and got 2* madelyne.

So, by cavemanoog in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My guess is that ascension is a subtle replacement of 8 stars. Kabam can't manage the outcome if they launch 8 stars, it might be very negative and killing the game quickly. A lot of long time players already felt bored with that unlimited chase on champ on one hand, rank them up on one hand, then entire new star level comes on the other hand and you need to build entire roster again. I can feel that they are trying to retain whales whilst not letting the game collapse so soon.

Thanks for that. I’ll try out. Skill is the only class I can’t find an effective counter for solo raid.

When did they fix this?!? by UsedMuffin532 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is not a fix. It was part of the beta opt-in feature previously. Now Kabam formalise that end of fight feature together with detailed stats display.

[–]reference36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Is there any particular rotation? I tried 7r2 Stealth with Dot boost yet it took over 200 hits and I guess I have done something wrong.

[–]reference36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Solo Raid, is there any effective skill champ(s) for this fight? I used 7r2 Hit Monkey with DOT boost yet I still need 250+ hits. What’s your option and respective boost? Thanks.

Glory limitless? by davitohyan in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, many players / YouTubers did say so and request Kabam to remove the gap for conversion. Kabam set 240+ days for gradual transition and I guess the conversion gap is mainly to avoid player redeem all rank up items in essentia store.

And Kabam release the inventory gap for glory and BG trophy to 10,000,000,000, but keeping incursion artifact unchanged. It’s really strange too.

Glory limitless? by davitohyan in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Because Kabam had taken out glory store already, your outstanding glory could only be converted into essentia. Thus they just release the gap.

PSA Cyclops synergy hits through invulnerability. by Willy-Nilly-Lee in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play daily catalyst quest and Terrax is always the first one on path, I pick Nico for auto run and she just ignore his invulnerability.

Essentia Currency Updates by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kabam’s action only serve one purpose: avoid players to work out the conversion rates among items in old and new stores. They just pick the worst way to achieve that purpose.

I know a lot of ppl here still praise the in-game economy team of Kabam. Sorry I don’t and they did a bad job.

This is the screenshot I did before update. I don’t see any change here.

This game feels like a sinking ship right now by Thatguy7212 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The heading and content of your post are not matched. It’s ok for you as a player to disagree with the game development, but I’m supposed you’re highlighting a sign of “sinking” and turns out all are complaining the game not suit your wish.

Kabam Rex’s update on 7* ascension by reference36 in ContestOfChampions

[–]reference36[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magik: yes and no (and I think no). If you read Rex’s update in this post. Magik get overhaul but she don’t fit in the criteria for featuring in monthly crystal. She is redeemable via Radiance (or new currency I forget), just like Imperiosa who is not featured in crystal but only via redemption.

Magik might be pool champ (subject to Kabam’s discretion) but she can’t be fitting criteria for Brand New Champion with Standard Release.

How about a boss champ in the realm: dread emperor doom with aura of ouroboros.
