Why are the necrons so weak?
Im trying to finish the necron elite campaign, i have a g3 aleph s2 anuphet, s2 imospek and bronze 3 mahkotep. I dont use thutmose he is only iron 1 and is too squishy and i dont have thothmek though i wish i did because he seems to be the only unit capable of 1 hitting an enemy. Even my aleph thats way higher rank than the enemies only 1 hits the weaker enemies with a crit or higher ground and sometimes takes 2-3 hits to kill the more armored enemies. All my units have max equipment in all slots and are all epic with aleph in legendary.
I dont want to waste the orbs making them legendary or the materials boosting their ranks much higher but i still have the last two pages to beat and theres no way im gonna 3 star them or even beat some of them. All the guides say you can do it with lower ranks but unless i get great minion placement and some luck its way harder than they make it seem.
Do the necrons just always do terrible damage? Im sure if i ranked them way up they’d eventually kill stuff way weaker than them easier but i feel like they are just such a waste to put anything into because besides aleph i dont see them being very useful in other modes.
Is thutmose a big help that im overlooking and could be my damage dealer? If so i wouldnt mind taking him to silver ranks if that would help he is just so squishy its not worth losing the 3 star to a single sniper shot.
I need to either beat the necron elite or aeldari elite to unlock the custodes/ emp children item elite battles and i have g1 aethana/ eldryon and s1 calandis so that elite campaign has been just as rough. Maybe i should just switch to the aeldari? I can get the same items from that campaign
