Best Ultimate Ability?

[Pantherr]

Haven't bought one yet, but am about too. Last game I used Rage. It was ok but not great, although I didn't get to full upgrade it. So opinions on what is best to choose?

Thanks...

all the abilities seem mediocre to me but probably the shadow abilities are the strongest.

Will check it out, TY .

Abyss is the strongest in terms of damage.

It depends, Abyss hits the hardest by a lot but it only affects one target, blood cauldren is the next highest damage and it hits everyone around the initial target a bit like the basic shadow explosion ability, and of course, the beast ability is the weakest in terms of damage, but still hits hard and it automatically hits every enemy you are fighting several times.

Of course taking into account enemy damage resistances I prefer to go with the abyss power since the high damage can overwhelm resistances and it locks down an enemy for several seconds so I can fight other goons. I used the beast power at first but the recovery animation after you finish the move leaves you open for longer than I like, especially since the enemies you hit recover from the stagger very quickly and I got killed several times while waiting to be allowed to dodge someone I just hit with the beast.

This is my experience as well. Abyss, especially at higher levels, doesn't really care for resistance. It'll do a truckload of damage regardless. The other skills not so much.

Rage maxed out are good for crowd control while also facing a single enemy like a boss would do a mass amount of damage, while abyss is great for adding combo attacks getting in a few melee swings and a claw attack to follow up, I really didn't like blood cauldron at all...

Yeah I tried the blood one, didn't really like it much. I do like the Rage one but it doesn't do as much damage.
