The Mediocre Players Guide to Thronebreaker EQ

May 2023

Old Sarge's Initial Thoughts: First pass was pretty easy. A couple rough fights here and there but nothing too crazy. All the Boss fights are pretty easy except maybe Ebony maw (though I had a great fight against him) and Corvus takes forever but it's not hard.  2.2, 3.1, and 3.2 have the #Champs. But since they added the Class champs it's not too bad. Looks like a pretty easy month. 

Old Sarge's Final Thoughts: Another pretty easy month imo. Not too many Landmines. Bosses were pretty easy overall. New champs aren't bad either. 

Good luck to everyone running EQ this month, I hope this guide helps. As always- when someone posts a champ that kills a quest or a Boss, I'll update this spreadsheet!

NOTE: June's EQ Guide will be delayed by approximately 1 week do to family obligations!! 

Chapter 1.1: MUTANT 

Main Nodes:

Bring:

Omega Red! OML. Colossus. Apoc. Rogue, Cable. Iceman. Sauron (resists bleed and poison immune)Any mutant champ works just don't hit into their block. Easy life!

NOTE: Domino and ArchAngel seem to be struggling to gain furies. Maybe something to do with how they reduce Ability Accuracy on the defender- I don't know.

Chapter 2.2: TECH | #Avenger

Main Nodes:


Bring:

Tech: Power Drainers will beast this Quest. Warlock, G2099, Civil Warrior, Vision(s), HulkBuster, Peni, etc...

#Avengers: Ant-Man, OG BP, BPCW, OG Black Widow, BWDO, OG Cap, CapIW, Cap Sam Wilson, Falcon, Hawkey, OG Hulk, Gladiator Hulk, HulkBuster, OG Ironman, IMIW, Kate Bishop, Mantis, Namor, QuickSilver, Ronin, Sigil Scarlet Witch,  OG Thor, Thor Rags, Vision, Vision AOU

Power Control champs are an option as well.

Old Sarge Says: Pretty straight forward fights. Do a bunch of lights and hope for crits and then throw a Medium to power drain. Or use Vision, HB etc to power drain. Falcon is really good for this quest. Locked On increases crit rating and you'll crit more often. Throw a MLLLM after 4-6 charges to do decent power drain. Use HB, Hawkeye, or Vision(s) to just do a normal power drain.

Chapter 3.1: COSMIC | New Avengers | A-Force | Fantastic 4

Main Nodes:

Cosmic champs: Need buffs. Hulkling, Hyperion, etc... Herc (with OG BP synergy)

#Fantastic Four: Human Torch, Mr F, Invisible Woman, Thing, Super Skrull


Any champ who can counter regen - Void, Warlock


Champs with lots of buffs


Sarge's Strategy: Gain the cross charge with tagged champs by throwing specials or punishing defender's special (basically dash in immediately after defender's special is over). Hype/CMM work really well as they can gain buffs to stop the 1% regen


Crowd Sourced Intel: Synergy- Hercules + OG Black Panther: Gives Herc Unblockable specials. 

Landmine Path Fights:

Quest Boss: Moondragon (Skill)

Main Nodes:

Old Sarge Says: 

Old Sarge's Final Thoughts: Bait that SP1. Her SP2 is pretty much Game Over. On her SP1- stay close and go in as soon as she starts to drop to the ground. Backdraft intercept.  She is aggressive so it isn't too bad. Just don't get hit. lol. And don't hit her if you stun her (includes Parry).
