Abilities[]

Missions from Thanos

Proxima Midnight has 3 missions to accomplish, one at a time, in random order.
- Mission 1: Parry Offense: Perform 6 Well Timed Blocks.
- Mission 2: Intercept Attack: Perform 4 intercepts against a dashing opponent.
- Mission 3: Incapacitate: Knockdown the opponent 5 times using a Heavy or Special Attack.
When Proxima completes an objective on one of her missions, she gains passive True Accuracy for 5 seconds.
Whenever completing a mission, she gains a Prowess Buff, increasing Special Damage by 250% per mission completed for 10 seconds. When the temporary Prowess Buff expires, Proxima receives her next mission and gains permanent Prowess, enhancing Special Damage by 200% for the rest of the fight.

Dev Notes: Proxima Midnight is designed to be great in long fights, while having spikes of damage temporarily. When players get 4 Prowess and 4 Fury Buffs, her damage output will be one of the highest in the game, making her a really good option for Labyrinth of Legends.

When Attacked

If Proxima has more than 30 hits in her Combo Meter, she can activate a Safeguard Buff when attacked by a projectile, preventing her from losing more than 3% of her max Health from a single source for 4 seconds.

Dev Notes: Great versus Yondu and Green Goblin!

Blocking

Opponents have 200% Offensive Ability Accuracy reduction when Proxima Midnight blocks an attack. Additionally, she can use the Parry Mastery against any basic attack, stunning opponents even if their attack is non-contact.

Dev Notes: Yondu won’t be able to inflict his Bleed through Proxima Midnight’s Block.

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

Strengths[]

Black Widow, Black Panther (Civil War)
- Proxima Midnight reduces her opponent’s Ability Accuracy when she blocks an attack. This means players will be able to Parry Black Widow’s attacks and Black Panther (Civil War) and Electra won’t be able to Reflect her Parry Stun.
Green Goblin, Yondu
- Proxima Midnight is able to Parry any Basic Attacks, enabling her to Parry Yondu’s Arrow attacks. She also has a Safeguard Buff when her Combo Meter is above 30 hits and when an opponent uses a projectile attack, making her an excellent Champion when going against Green Goblin’s and Yondu’s Special Attacks.
Wolverine, Green Goblin, Ultron
- Proxima Midnight’s Special 1 Attack is very effective against opponents that are regenerating Health through their Buffs and Passive effects. A huge Attack Rating increase and a long Heal Block also allows her to be extremely effective in Alliance Wars against opponents that benefit from the Willpower Mastery.
Spider-Man, Nightcrawler, M.O.D.O.K.
- When using her spear, Proxima Midnight hardly misses an attack thanks to her True Strike effect when completing her objectives, enabling her to be a great counter to Champions that use Evade or Auto-Block

Weaknesses[]

Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch (Classic)
- Proxima Midnight’s main source of damage are her permanent Prowess and Fury Buffs. Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch (Classic) can easily nullify those Buffs, making her vulnerable to those Champions.
Loki, Rogue
- Those two Champions can potentially steal Proxima’s Prowess and Fury Buffs and use them in a devastating attack.

Recommended Masteries[]

Glass Cannon, Recoil
- Glass Cannon and Recoil are Attack Rating bonuses, and this synergizes really well with the big Prowess bonuses Proxima Midnight is able to get when completing her missions.
Petrify and Pacify
- Proxima’s Special 2 and Special 3 Attack inflict very potent Stuns. Having Petrify and Pacify will reduce their Ability Accuracy while also reducing her opponent’s Health and Power gains.
Enhanced Fury
- Her Signature Ability, Ultimate Mission, provides very potent Fury bonuses. Enhanced Fury at max level will grant her a 8% stronger Fury effects.
