How to Make Hellagur Good: Add 72% Sanctuary

IS-S-4 CM: 4 bird operators only
A harsh map to low op for birds, considering that every ranged tile is unsafe and none of my melee ops can actually survive the constant hitman spawns. Silence Alter neatly solves both of these issues with her passive Sanctuary damage reduction, low HP regen, and S2 granting up to a whopping 72% Sanctuary to ensure that Hellagur doesn't die off-skill. Even with all of that, things didn't exactly go to plan in this clear... but it's nothing some desperate Silence S2 activations can't fix.

A previous iteration of this strategy actually got almost to the end... using Bryophyta. Unfortunately he cannot actually kill the last car and hitman by himself, so I had to switch to Firewhistle.

o7 Bryo, may one day we find a use for you

[@sundoll3710]

if only he could actually summon rocks…maybe he’d have a chance /slapped

[@adamvegas5951]

S1 or S2?

[@Pengod]

@@adamvegas5951 S2 to keep Hellagur from dying while both his skill and Silence are on cooldown. Worked surprisingly well until eventually Hellagur died at the very end. Some other runs with him also had the trash mobs from cars exceed his block count, which isn't an issue with Firewhistle.

:((((( at least hes hot but damn does he suck

The ursus army's standard is to have 72% sanctuary off skill

[@drsnorlax_felineknights]

Finally the birdknights is back

[@livyawthawn]

That was a nice clear.
I don’t think I’m using Silence Alter the way I’m supposed to.

[@sirwobble265]

silence keeps operators alive. if they are going to die, then you press the skill button and then they don't die. if they die anyway, then you just complain about it.

[@sirloin6856]

Silence's talent really works well with Musha guards

So proud of my girl firewhistle for holding it down at the end there

[@elkindangen152]

Passanger for the clutch 😂

[@adamvegas5951]

Cooking with fire whistle it works more than you think

[@Zatweeb]

Question: Does Silence's regen affect Mushas and such? Similar to Perfumer and Bards?

[@fallenwisp5001]

Passenger is with a Y module...
Is Y module, by any chance, better than an X module if you don't care about the sp-regen? Or is X module still better with ASPD and increased slow duration?
I've always wondered whether increased duration of the bonus damage (from 3s to 4s, and S3 is 4s) is impactful or not...

[@Pengod]

X module is typically better, but in this case I wanted to maximize damage on cars and hitmen, so mod Y was used instead

[@astrid2432]

I'm wondering: why didn't you use Passenger skill on the limo, so the 3 enemies won't spawn?
or was the attack too weak to finish them in one cycle
all in all, very good clear

[@zeldomaine]

no totter :(

[@FenniruDrexter]

Sanctuary can stack?

[@Pengod]

Highest value overrides all others, so the 25% sanctuary from Hellagur mod X doesn’t apply while Silence s2 is active

[@absolutelypallets7378]

It does stack with DR like juggernauts, guardian, and AH mods. Should have given musha DR smh

[@VeryNormalGuy9]

​@@absolutelypallets7378Those "damage reduction" status aren't "Sanctuary", so they can stack on top of Sanctuary effect

[@Jedex96]

That last minion could have leaked if Passenger S3 didn't target it.
Otherwise you should have waited to have both S3 charges to avoid RNG.
