@My Memory Yeah. Even if you're using different vanguards, you can. In my case, it's Myrtle and Vigna and they delivered. The only difference is Saria's S3 is in M1 for that extra damage by Ange and Eyja

[@spiroskarkavelas6922]

this strat is great, but unfortunately too tight on dp. Gotta have high pot on many units to pull this off otherwise you are not rdy for crown. I replaced siege with myrtle and switch the position putting texas up front to stun some enemies with myrtle behind and it worked though so, it still is a very very good strat

@My Memory my angelina isnt m3 ....yet.... so hopefully once she is m3 ill have an easier time

This strat worked much better for me, since Siege wasn't critical for damage and running 2-3dp behind because of low-pot units made Crownslayer kills hard to confirm (you might need some higher skill masteries though)

[@apachers2807]

Thank you so much for this strat! was able to clear with low pot on everyone (0-2 pot) and with only M3 on Ange and Saria (support unit)

[@JR-eo8cy]

Why retreat SA towards the end? Is it to bait AI aggro, or is it just flexing? Anyways, I used this strat (but put Texas where Siege is and placed Myrtle behind her and didn't retreat SA) - it worked perfectly after some failures and fine tuning! Notable differences are that I had max pot Myrtle s1m3 and s3m3 Eyja and SA. Thanks for this, Hino. You're awesome.

[@SJEarthquakes97]

I've been thinking that maybe Ptilo is actually replaceable with an E2 Warfarin? Enough enemies would die in her range for her talent to activate somewhat often, but I think you'd have to get very lucky in who she gives the SP to.

[@ZXZZ66_]

Im thinking the same way... But, as u can see... The key of this strat is angelina, SA and eyjafggajalla. and both SA and eyjafghjdlla need a decent ammount of SP to activate their skill... So ptilopsis can help them better than warfarin..

[@leongonnwong4915]

And Warfarin's talent is random

Random question: Can Bagpipe (with S2M3) replace Siege in this? (I don't have Siege and I'm trying to think of a good substitute.) Also, I don't have Saria and Eyja but I do have Nearl (E2, Rank 7 no mastery) and Ceobe (E1 Lvl 55 Rank 7), while SA and Ange are currently E2 with no mastery. Who should I borrow from the support unit, Saria or Eyja? Thank you in advance!

[@Acepada]

whoa not even max slvl amazing!

[@ArixJun]

nice work dude. I do have a question tho if I do have myrtle on the team would I have to have masteries for just siege and maybe SA or for all three siege, SA, and eyja?

[@pradana5552]

Alright, all S3M3 on Angie, Eyja, Saria, SA is definitely overkill, it absolutely cheese this strat. Though technically my Saria is still M2, got the mat for M3 already prepared, but tried it out then turns out more than enough. Also just for additional info, from all the potent in my lineup, it saved me -3 DP, and everything gone smoothly. So I probably could say, potent was not really crucial here. Thanks for the guide mate, really helpful.

[@letroglodyte9525]

Hello there. I'm planning on following your strat for when CC#Pyrite release on Global, but I'm a little concerned about one thing... It's the level of Angelina. Do you think it would be possible with an e2lv30 ? I suppose the m3 would be mandatory in that case, but that wouldn't cost me as much as raising her to such high level. (my Eyja and SA are e2lv30 and have s3m3) I am particularly talking about the part at 36 kill (2:40), when four Wraith Leader (and one Breaker) pass through your operators. At that moment, Angelina attacks for the full 25 seconds of her S3m3 (S3r7 is 18sec long), and was at one hit away from killing the last of them. Eyja came in the clutch to finish the last. So I can't imagine an Angelina without a S3m3 being able to do the job here...

[@KhoiNguyen-gl4kt]

The Angelina in this video has 462 attack due to the dmg-reduced tag, whereas an E2lv50 Angelina will have exactly 500 attack (+75 from trust) = 575 combined with the dmg-reduced tag it's gonna be 432. The dmg difference in this case is 30 so I think E2lv50 is enough.

[@SJEarthquakes97]

Not sure about Q1, but Bagpipe should probably use S3 for the +1 block and additional DPS on Wraiths as they pass by. May or may not need masteries since the increased block count seems helpful at the start of the stage.

Trying to do this with everyone at E2L30 is ridiculously tight. I only have M2 on Ange S3 (though support Eyja has M3), and either the Naruto runners at the start (before I can drop Saria, because I'm short by 1-2 DP due to not having cost reduction on anyone but Texas, Ange, and SA.), or the one time I somehow managed that, two of the Elite Wraiths get away. I could use TSS on them, but then I won't have it available for the Crushers. And due to circumstances, leveling up my operators past E2L30 is not an option right now. Think I'll have to burn Primes to rush the last half of Ange's S3M3 cost for those last three seconds of duration.

[@TheNezperdian]

I was getting worried that I needed to put some masteries to Saria's S3, but I see that I won't have a problem with this strategy. I got Eyjaf's S3M3 and Angelina's S3M3 for this CC. Already got Silverash's S3M3 and Siege's S2M1. I guess I'll need a support Texas, level up more Bagpipe, or just my trusty Myrtle.

I've been trying a variant of this for the past couple hours, with Myrtle and Bagpipe as Vanguards but no dice. The damage requirement is too tight on the 35/62 mark. I need to *schwing schwing* just to barely clinch out the Wraith Leaders, which leaves me unable to deal with the next guys. As my Texas is only Pot 1/E1, I can't really do anything in that department. Gonna raise Saria's S3 mastery(which would make her nigh-complete if I can max it lol, potentials aside), so hopefully that'll help.
