FW Blitz

If you are like me and have been struggling to get the FW crypts 3*, I watched a friend of mine with worse champs but better gear swap gear sets amongst the factions using the gear presets.

So I did what he did and blitzed 5 of 6 remaining in only a week.  Now Demonspawn (no healer or reviver) are last.  Wish me luck. 😂🍀

So, anyway, this isn't new, but it's a heckuva lot more affordable with free gear swapping.  If you haven't, time to consider it!  With the new faction coming, everyone should try to complete Lydia before the new faction counts.

Free gear swapping and presets changed the game for sure.

Whats the demonspawn roster look like?

The six most likely candidates.  I put Vulk in Bolster to give the team more time to swing on pack takedown on the Dueler boss.

i

I still have work to do on Alure, but Magnarr and Fellhound are the only booked champs.

in *most* cases, high res and def can take the place of heal/revive in a pinch

Your post above mentions Lydia, so I assume you are working on Regular FW.  That Demons Roster should be more than capable of doing Regular FW all the way to 21.

If you have her, Tainix offers some pretty solid support in Regular FW.  Stack her with HP & Speed and she can keep you alive.  I did Regular Demons w/o a Reviver and used Tainix for healing....although I may have had Helicath by the time I 3-starred everyhting.  Don't really remember.

If you have the books, Lamasu, Vulkanos & Shazar are all worth booking.

Other Epics worth mentioning: Peydma, Nazana, Achak, Akoth.  If you have Achak, he does killer healing paired with Burners.

Yeah id definitely recommend Alure for 21.  When I did it the 1st time I put my fastest gear on her and boss never took a turn.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback.  Accelerating Alure.  I have to wait anyway until the crypt opens, and it will take at least two weeks to get all the *, so she'll be good to go, and after I finish Minotauring her, Shazar is next.

Hah.  She's one of the epics that took me forever to pull for the first time.  Had to do FW w/o her.  

I did end up building her for one of the DT bosses back in the day.  I think it was Scarab that needed a TM Control team...way back when.

I've had mine for about six months, but never prioritized her because she's always the easiest to drop in waves.   Thought meh...😓

Love it when epics like her and Magnarr can help get it done.

Her damage is mediocre, but she is one of the best (if not the best) TM Control Toons in the game.

She actually can hit surprisingly hard.  But thats Cursed City shenanigans, FW just fast and controlly.

Just pulled Chalco and Helicath from saved shards among several others with Black Friday boosts. Heh.  That'll help...oh, and a dupe Shazar to give the 10% HP boost.

Well, that was not what I expected.  Just closed out Demonspawn...turns out Helicath and Alure made it a bit of a snoozer.  In any case, was ready to accept my Lydia with open arms...only to realize I'm missing two stars in Knights Revenant I had not seen before.  And I have to wait an entire week to even find out what level I missed them at.  <sigh>...well, snap.

GZ on Demonspawn.  Always brutal to find out youre missing a few.  Hopefully it'll be an easy stage for ya.

Yep, stage 7.  Drath even ran it minus armor, just had accessories. 😆. Does Lydia redemption count in CvC?

Yes.  30K points for CVC or 650 in a champ chase.
