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.

IS-EX-7 CM: 4 bird operators only Looking back at old clears and felt that while it was funny to use Irene S2 and Gnosis last time, EX-7 could probably use a 1 op reduction. This map is a good excuse to use Fia anyways, what with the single chokepoint and a good sweetspot tile. She's got a big damage bonus from her module, Totter can actually kill Agenir in one S2 use with his module, and I'm s...

H13-2: Bird operators only (7 ops) A short and intense map to contrast the unusual length of H13-1. It's impossible for low op birds to continuously deal with the blood slug rush if the altars are left alive, so it's up to Irene, Firewhistle and Cantabile to rush the payloads to the altars ASAP. Passenger's main contribution is (almost) killing the whip elites before any of them can even move. ...

    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...

      Save for Degen unless you have spare pulls. Fedex is more of a lane holder than a boss-killer. If a lane is not getting enough pressure (which is very map/event dependent), he can't heal himself fast enough and can be killed. He also needs high investment to be good, as he really benefits from Mod 3, M3, and max E2. He can often be substituted for by many other units like La Pluma, Mountain, Mudrock/Penance, Jessicalter, Specter/Splatter, Blaze etc. Having said that, he is still a strong unit, just not busted, and if you do need a strong solo laneholder that doesn't need support/healing, is worth considering. He also pairs very well with Stainless S3, but that is more for fun/niche/meme clears than general or even advanced use. Oh, and remember that he can't hit aerial, despite using shotguns, so he can't hold lanes with drones by himself.
