I will go with
C2Rigard, Shacklebolt, Pepperflame, Phenexa, Louhi

I know Phenexa isn’t maxed but an extra healer in another colour is always great.

Oh i have Joon too with 2 costumes.

Shacklebolt-Toon Leonidas-Toon Joon-C2 Rigard-Ramona or something. I’m not sure if I have someone even better but I’m pretty sure it’s a breeze even with this group since everyone is LB2. I don’t think I’m gonna bring C Mother North, she’s not that great on PvE, but I still would prefer a rainbow team for most things PvE.

/edit: Oh right, forgot about Pepperflame, so bringing her for sure. Who should I replace with Pepperflame? Probably Toon Leo has to go because of the speed advantage for Joon.

/edit2: How come monks are so OP all of a sudden?

So we finally reached the end of the rotation. This is the 10th and last Master Trial quest! Let see how this one goes but didn’t have any trouble completing any of them except maybe the last stage on the first one. Even though I tried it during beta, I guess I was still caught by surprise by how hefty the bosses were (both in HP and damage).

Is it intended for Karnov to reflect purple in this quest?

I don’t recall if we had any other challenge event heroes in the other master trial quests to compare with.

I came here to post the same, that surprized me a bit.

My monk choice for the master emblems!

3 darks and the karnov at the second stage with the reflect purple shield laughs at you

2 Likes

They probably cut and pasted the code of that karnov from the villains event that reflected purple

3 Likes

All I wished is they changed up all the bosses and not have it be the same waves of bosses all the time

It is a bug for sure.

Someone has already reported it:

Not really. Joon basically soloed Karnov. It was laughably easy as expected

I had little trouble with this team - Wilbur sure makes things much easier!

Throw in Hachiko’s riposte damage, and Bera’s minions…

My team for the first run-through:

  • Toon Leo 4^85+20 (all costume bonuses)
  • Joon +20
  • Ptolemy 4^75+20
  • Jabberwock 4^85+c20
  • Maheegan 4^80+20

Really thought my monk stable was better than this. The purple reflect screwed me up on stage 2, since Jabberwock is a main part of my attack. Almost failed that stage. Will have to deal with that better next time. On stage 3, moving Toon Leo to the left wing really helped, as he resisted all of boss Jabberwock’s ailments. MEs to Toon Leo, my strongest hero by TP.

I didn’t notice the reflect guy until about half way through when I was wondering how he basically hadn’t lost any health (I was using 3x purple, 2x red :rofl:
I did use 1x tornado and that as all, otherwise easy - easier without the purple reflect though

My team for stage 3:

  • Louhi LB2
  • Azmia LB1 (with partial costume bonus)
  • Elizabeth
  • Toon Leonidas
  • C2 Rigard

I used Leo to target Jabberwock. He still fired once. I will probably limit break toon Leo at some point and that will make this easier.

In stages 1-2, I used c1 Boldtusk instead of Azmia. That did not work nearly as well. Azmia’s counterattack and additional overheal both help - especially now with the passives that come with the costume.

The purple reflect in stage 2 caused a lot of trouble, since Louhi is one of the two biggest hitters in my team. I used a couple of small items to make it through. That stage also helped me make the switch to Azmia - she would have helped a lot there. Limit breaking Leo will help for next time.

I have really enjoyed this new set of trials - very fun! :slight_smile:

This was by far the easiest and quickest of my trials as I have relatively strong heroes in the monk class. For me the Paladin was the hardest so far as I’m lacking completely in that department. My team was:
Daroga 4/90-24
Daroga 4/80-20
Tang Sanzang 4/90-20
Ramona 4/85-20
C Balur 4/80-20

Hi everyone.

Just noticed I’m very weak at Monks.

》First team:

First stage was pretty easy. Not a good team but boards were blessed.

Then I’ve noticed my Li Xiu has MUCH better stats than my dusty Leonidas.

》 Second and third stages team:

》Items:

Used some antidotes because of Santa Claus in last stage.

Noticed Jabber is my best monk. I missed using Drake… Sadly, power creep made him helpless. Wu Kong + Wilbur always was a good combo. I was planning to break Jabber but now I have got Toon Obakan… guess I will max a dupe and break it instead.

Oh… The Dark guy from Villains had Elemental Barrier… was that intented?
