How to Play Iron Man in Mystic Mayhem
Iron Man is a Striker, which means he excels at dealing ranged damage. Make sure to position Iron Man behind your Defender or Fighter, as they will likely tank enemy attacks. Focus on dealing damage and repositioning effectively as Iron Man.
Unibeam is his dash skill, and it's an important one. Use this ability to reposition to a safer spot when you're being ganged up on by enemies. Be sure to choose the perfect landing location and aim the laser beam through a line of enemies for maximum effect.
Blaster Array and Iron Legion are both AoE damage skills, so prioritize using them against grouped-up enemies rather than isolated targets.
Iron Man is a character who scales exceptionally well when his skills are enhanced and upgraded. At maximum enhancement, his Blaster Array ignores 40% of the enemy's DEF, making it devastating and highly effective for clearing stages with high-DEF enemies.
While he can deal decent damage, his defense and health are quite low, which significantly hurts his survivability. This forces Iron Man to rely on defensive Artifacts and Highlights, a disappointing trade-off since you'd typically want to equip damage items to fully unlock a Striker’s potential.
Best Team Compositions
General
For most content in Mystic Mayhem, Iron Man works best when paired with Armor and Doctor Strange. Iron Man has low defensive stats and his kit often requires him to get closer to enemies, increasing his risk of taking damage, this is where Armor’s taunt skill becomes essential, drawing enemy attention away from him.
Doctor Strange is the ideal Controller to support Iron Man, providing constant healing and buffs to keep him alive and boost his damage output. If Doctor Strange isn't available, Sleepwalker is a solid alternative, especially in auto-play setups.
Thor is a great option if you prefer more damage on the frontline. He can dish out heavy AoE damage while also being capable of taking hits. However, this means Doctor Strange will need to heal more frequently, but that’s not a problem, as it fits perfectly with Strange’s supportive role.
Raids
In raid battles that require fast clearing, pair Iron Man with Scarlet Witch and Thor. They offer strong damage output, and Thor can also tank effectively. However, if the raid is at the same level or slightly lower than your characters, consider swapping one of them for Moon Knight, who deals decent damage and has a healing skill for added sustain if needed.
Best Artifacts for Iron Man
The best Artifacts for Iron Man are the ones increasing his ATK and Crit DMG:
If you're lucky enough to obtain Gungnir, it's the best option for Iron Man. Gungnir increases the wearer's skill damage by 30%, making Iron Man's already deadly skills even more devastating.
Midnight Gun increases the wearer's crit damage by 21.6%, while Unstable Molecules boost attack by 10.8%. Both are excellent choices for enhancing Iron Man's overall damage output.
Best Highlights for Iron Man
These are the best Highlights for Iron Man:
1. Fight as One
The wearer's ATK increases by 20%. CRIT Rate increases by 16% if their HP is above 80%. This Highlight boosts both ATK and CRIT Rate, making it a perfect enhancement for any Striker.
2. Great Minds
The wearer's CRIT Rate increases by 20%. If the wearer's skill costs 3 or more Mana, they deal 10% more DMG. Since all of Iron Man's skills cost 3 or more Mana, this Highlight effectively enhances his overall damage.
3. Threads of Hatred
The wearer's ATK increases by 24%. The wearer deals 12% more DMG to non-boss enemies. This is the last best option for Iron Man if you dont have the Fight as One and Great Minds Highlights.
