Dragon Balls? Are they tasty?
Jesus loving Christ, I can steamroll to the end of the Thanos raid with my main party in fighting shape and get to the final battle, but Thanos' AE just obliterates me in a single blast. My B-Team wouldn't even be strong enough to put a dent in them.

Also, I just randomly got enough pieces for Nobu. I see he's pretty high on the tier list but I never see anyone using him - He's basically Yondu for the Hand, right?

Yeah, Nobu owns owns owns, as does the Hand in general for PVE poo poo.

Noone uses him because there's no way to farm him.

Yeh his AOE is really fucky even as a player owned character. Just did a blitz with a team who had him and I was spanking them until his AOE went off. I swear it hits harder than Xbox Boom.

E: I'm 5 away from him but the rank 1 is 110% damane + 50% drain and can't miss, which is loving nuts

I think people are more intimidated by Thanos. Ever since I replaced XBox with him i seem to get attacked less and hold arena rank better. Finally cracked top 100.

I don’t mind fighting either Thanos or Xbones, it seems like hp scales up faster than their aoe damage so even if xbones detonates in arena/blitz it isn’t a huge deal.

Properly applied, Xbones' explosion is a Coup de Grace. You deffo need to weaken poo poo up for maximum effect.

I use Nobu regularly, he's quite strong and gets to summon on the first turn. Summoning blademaster and archer is pretty good as these are strong characters. Both do really good damage, blademasters doublestriking leaving him doing very high damage and archer also comes with a remove a debuff from every character strike.

Counterattack on everyone can be nice but I often find myself just going for hitting someone now instead - strong against evade characters though, since a counterattack will use up one of their evades. Stealthing himself on his basic is pretty good to help him survive to get a second batch of hand minions.

Just beware Punishers as they will kill your summons before you get to use them, as Punisher goes in between them being summoned and them getting to go.

It also nice to see them absorb a Winter Soldier super punch or BW stun for the team. They die, but they wasted a good move.

Honestly it sucks watching my Yondu minions go out without an attack sometimes but really any time they catch a cd for me I can at least know they died for the cause

One cool thing about Hand Archer, summoned or regular, is his AOE damage+dispel has 100,000 focus which makes him the only dude that can essentially be guaranteed to clear taunt from Thanos. Thanos gains 10k resist from his passive while taunting, the only other reliable dispel for that is Jessica Jones (her third skill has a +10k focus modifier) but she can still be resisted sometimes.

The only downside with Nobu is you can't farm his shards unless you whale.
