What's the Scoop on Quintus

When Quintus was first released (before anyone had him), peeps were talking up his kit like he would redefine the Arena Meta.  A year later, and there must be at least 10K copies of him out in the wild, and you almost never see him anywhere in Arena.  I may have fought a Quintus a total of a half dozen times and mostly just as a one-man defense in 3v3.

I use mine semi-regularly. His A2 is good for dropping Rotos, Taras, Siegfrund. Guys with some sort of survival passive.

Does the A2 also remove stoneskin?  Or is that still only a 50% removal even though it cannot be resisted?

@ShortOnSkillz uses his in Hydra, I believe, rather than PvP

I have mine in lethal. Not my best built champ, but I don't wanna pull gear off the ones who *are* my best built to see IF he could be as good.


Trying to test if his A2 can remove stoneskin 100%, but ive used all my tokens today

Currently used in Brutal Hydra + Hard FK10.  

Does roughly 125M in Hydra for me currently.  Occasionally I'll throw him into arena for funsies.

50% chance unfortunately.  Which making it 100% would be a good buff for him.

I just don't think he has kept up with the insane escalation of power lately. I don't have Narsis but if I did I would pick Narsis over this guy every day of the week.

For PvP definitely.  Hence my claim hes a better PvE champ than PvP, which was certainly not the intention but here we are.  Lol.

Narses's A2 is very similar to Quintus's, but Narses's is AoE.


Otoh, I don't *have* Narses. :)

Endgame PvP Reward is a PvE champ, makes sense. :)

And Ramantu is the new Sheep Faction.

Yes.  At least Marius looks decent.

Hijacking this thread for a moment of griping that isn't *quite* a bug report:

I know, I know, statistical averages, sample size, etc.


I swear to god something is wrong with drop rates. When I was doing the "get 20 mythicals" one, I was running superraids, dragon hard 10. First 100 double runs, i got 10 pieces, exactly statistically on par. then it took **300** more double runs to get the next 10 pieces.


Right now I'm working on get 40 immortal soul essense: HH says the drop rate on IT 15 is 8% chance to get 4-6.

I did 64 consecutive runs over a 6 days with nothing but grey coins before I got 4 essences on run 65. then more coins on runs 66-72

Before watching it, just mentioning a part I left out of my gripe that maybe he covers:


Set a mercy for getting mythical pieces from hard dungeons and essences from IT
