Boosted 5* Question

bigjojo04

So just curious, I know there are some out there that keep track of various things that occur in this game, so just wondering if there is anyone out there that knows when the last time each 5 was boosted.

I’d like to know this as I currently have 6 fully covered 5’s at the moment that all need 500k+ iso in order to champ and would very much like to champ the one that is likely to be boosted next to potentially get some use out of them while that occurs.

For reference, the 5’s I have that I could champ are Jessica Jones, Havok, iHulk, OML, Victor, and Phyla-Vell.

High five to whomever can provide this information to me. Many thanks.

I know there are people that keep track of it (but I don't personally). I can however tell you that Jessica Jones was last a 5* Essential over 2 years ago (March 22) but boosted recently, and I think Phylla has 1 more run before she leaves Latests.

The boost weeks used to be strictly in release date order but they've (thankfully!) started screwing around with it, to the point that they're kind of unpredictable now.

You should just level up the best or most interesting (to you) characters from your list.

The boost list cycle takes about 23 weeks. However, the latest 3 5's are essential (boosted in PVE) about every 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. Also: The devs attempt to (to some degree) rejigger the boost list to match up with themes for the month as well.

So it sort of depends on how you look at it in terms of how long it might be until certain characters get boosted again.

In terms of utility your group are, from most to least:

iHulk

ummm...

Jessica Jones
Phyla
Victor (He has a stun)
OML
Havoc

Phyla will be essential in PVE again soon so champing her will help make your clears faster for that event.

Try to hold the iso rather than letting it burn a hole in your pocket, and wait to see the actual list to help make your decision.

I would go Phylla -> iHulk -> Victor -> JJ -> Havok -> OML
Phylla is quite strong especially when boosted.
I don't think Victor is that good, it just takes too many things to get his kit going. He is certainly better than JJ OML and Havok though.

Here’s the running list of Essentials, thanks to BlackBolt. It’s not exactly the same as a boosted list, but might still be useful to you: https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/83560/new-classic-legends-essential-order-in-pve
