Estranged son of the evil mutant Mystique, Kurt Wagner was raised by a fortune teller and grew up as part of a travelling circus in Germany. Using his unique physique and agility, he performed as the star acrobat for years until finally attempting escape. During this escape, Nightcrawler teleported for the first time, an event that lead to him being rescued from an angry mob by Professor Charles Xavier, who came to recruit him into the X-Men.Marvel Source
From there, Nightcrawler became a mainstay of the X-Men’s various incarnations, as well as other teams such as Excalibur. He uses his teleportation, expert swashbuckling and superhuman agility to defeat enemies quickly, but maintains a light-hearted and positive attitude and serves as a moral anchor for the team.
I think Kitty pryde with brutal rating and melee dmg would work great I just don't have one on hand.
Work in progress. From test I would set up infernal brimstone into flash and grab. Pop shadowmeld and then dive bomb the room. Clean up with blink strike if you haven't killed everything with it earlier. I'm not the biggest fan of his sig so I only 1 pt it and use it sparingly. May work it in more when the hotbars are fully completed. Since agile strike no long has the crit bonus I took swashbuckler slash and upped his passive master swordsman for the bleed and crit rating.
Legendary i'm going with Gungir and pretty much glass cannon with this guy. Hence why I decided on a pym since this is a very heavy spirit build. You will be drained but replenished.
Basic attack.: Here's the thing with swashbuckler I found out today. Master Swordsman does not always proc. It's not 100% of the time. I tested back an forth so far between all three. Sneak attack seems the weakest of the three because you need to pop shadowmold to keep up the extra 50% and it sitll only puts it at about the same #'s as the other 2. Agile strike would win if you choose not to use a pyms which I highly recommend for this build. Agiles dmg and spirit return is pretty good. In fact I hit higher crits and brutals with this so far but.....Swashbuckler will win out in the end with the weapon unique and the atk spd you get form xero and meta.Your atk spd should all but be capped around 25% from items and the wep unique. I think I hit 3.4 atk spd with swasbuckler while i was only at 2.8 with agile. What that means is the more you hit the better your chances for that proc from master swordsman to go off are. So you're getting the bleed plus decent dmg with crit rating and crit dmg. Plus pyms should help significantly with spirit consumption. Basic for single targets otherwise i'm always using his abilities. No wep unique I think it's your call on preference. If using agile I would max that to 20 and bump One Step Ahead to 16 having 0 in swash and 0 in master swordsman.
Update. Hyrda wins out by far for medal. Mandarin's procs do not proc fast enough for you to kill bosses without being killed. The extra 400 or more dmg rating from hydra and invuln proc chance will help you burn bosses down with blink strike.The reason I mainly pick 25% health and spirit or invuln on cores is because life on hit are hard to find and NC is fairly squishy as it is. GL if you find one though. Go with strength for sure on core so you get another 5% on physical dmg and can throw heavy objects. You only go up 1% per stat with fighting and like 3% atk spd if you boost the speed stat, but you will be capped or nearly with your items so not worth it either.
Synergies right now i'm using: BP, Cable, DD, HE, SG, Thing, NC's own synergy, Spidey, Wolverine and Cyke while lvling up only for the 10%xp bonus otherwise swap it for cap or pun based on deflect or health/spirit on kill.
Options for Cosmic Terminals A few things I swap or would for cosmic terminals and lower asgard. I would not change the build on abilities at all but I would replace 3 of the artifacts keeping only pym shrinking. You can swap for advanced crimson crystal, advanced super soldier and advanced startstone. Also hopefully you may find a piece of cosmic gear with the invuln affix on it. Invlun and 25% health/spirit medkit core may be more useful than strength/invuln either way invuln is a great option. Basically with Hydra medal it's 3 proc chances for invuln and 1 guaranteed on medkit. Mad survival pop shadowmeld when you feel like it. If you want to take it even further and have an extra costume keep the one with dmg rating or dmg rating to targets attacking you and put all health on the other. That's more of an extreme case if you have the extra costume and wnat to put it to use.. I don't want to make another build guide just for cosmic terminals when I can post it here. You will lose around 400 or more dmg rating it's ok if you want to live.
Don't forget to vote or comment on the build/builds if you've tested an like or see something that may need change for the better.
