Hellagur is Hellagodly - Hellagur vs All Story Bosses | [Arknights]

[@ahmadyulinu]

As someone that's also obsessed with this grandpa, you have my utmost gratitude. Hoping to max pot him just like Thorns someday in the future.

[@arks_knights]

lore wise in their prime both patriot and hellagur are somewhat equally matched(hellagur may not be able to beat him but he will give a good fight). which is impressive considering patriot out of his prime can still fight 2 emperor's blade without much issue

[@jdawgs1484]

I remember in Chernobog with the "Anonymous One's War" story Patriot saying that Hellagur's Blade would not have been able to even pierce his armor at all. Calling a match between the two "unfair" if it were to happen. Hellagur says his armor is beyond disrepair and implies he possibly could at the time but he is never clear about it. What this does say about them in the past though is that Hellagur would not have pierced Patriot's armor in the past for sure and would definitely not be able to beat him as strong as he is. Now with Patriot out of his prime in the reunion movement maybe Hellagur has a chance but I have severe doubts that Hellagur, as much as I love him can take on 2 emperor's blades to a stalemate like Patriot considering how strong they are (Kal'stit also took on one and you could say she struggled). It is also important to note that in the same "anonymous one's war" story Hellagur said that him and 2 of his other companions (also likely highly ranked/powerful) would have certainly died if Patriot did not save them from the Silverlance of Kazimierz. Considering how Patriot a single man completely changed the outcome of such a situation, its safe to say he is stronger than Hellagur + his 2 companions he mentioned. Even more comparisons but a Young Nearl in her early teens beat a silverlance knight so if Hellagur and gang struggled without Patriot against a group of them it further confirms he likely isn't as powerful as Patriot in those times and probably even now. This is of course all speculation based on multiple implications from what little Hellagur and Patriot lore + other benchmarks to compare with that we have. However I could be completely wrong if AK decides to say out of nowhere that Hellagur is so goated he is stronger than Skadi (a complete exaggeration of course). my point with that entire lore dump is tldr: 1. Hellagur is likely unable to beat Patriot both in the past and maybe now but could hold his ground for a small amount of time (generous assumption even then). 2. Everything I stated is implications and assumptions based off what little amounts of lore we have 3. I could be completely wrong if later Hypergryph/Yostar suddenly drops new info. Thanks for commenting about this lore point! It's a very interesting thing to discuss for sure.

[@Piquliar]

@@jdawgs1484 I think in an old video/livestream one of the Ak people said that Patriot was made to be the most powerful man in Terra's history so Hellagur, while a very proficient warrior isn't close to Buldrokastee's power BUT what is true is that Hellagur was genuinely respected by Patriot and respect from such a being is certainly nothing to take lightly.

[@jdawgs1484]

@Piquliar Definitely so, both are basically brother's in arms, and Patriot wished that he had served under Hellagur back in their glory days (I believe Hellagur outranked him back then). They vowed not to fight each other after their meeting in Chernobog. But yes, Hellagur has not been equal in terms of combat strength but is certainly a highly respected comrade and friend in Patriot's eyes

[@Piquliar]

@@jdawgs1484 Indeed. Such a powerful friendship they had.

[@fierytepig155]

"Theres timestamps so people can watch the later fights since they won't care about the early bosses" No, I'm purposely watching the entire video

[@oldwellenthusiast8750]

great video, really shows your passion towards hellagur, not just boss oneshots (as entertaining as they are), but trying to keep the entire stage interesting and trying to show off the operator as much as possible. must have been a lot of effort

[@Leigh-vn5tw]

I got helagur while i was aiming for bagpipe, now i feel like building him

[@jdawgs1484]

Congratulations on getting him! He is much stronger with his new Module now! Both in survivability and dps. While he is one of my favourite Operators, if you do already have a elite/boss duelist built in your roster (NTR, Surtr, even Skadi) then you should probably put him for the backlog until you finish more important operators that may fill in niches and roles you don't have covered. Otherwise if you have nothing else to build or need someone to fill in the duelist slot, he'll work just fine! While he isn't "meta", he is still a viable option for dueling, and solo lane holding in some cases as long as you play around his strengths Hopefully you get bagpipe at some point! I assume you didn't have enough yellow certs to exchange for her :(. She can be obtained from top operator tag combined with vanguard/dp-recovery on a 50/50 chance shared with Siege if you happen to get lucky in recruitment! Otherwise hope she spooks you at some point... Enjoy Hellagur if you build him! I guarantee you'll find him fun if you work around him in your squad composition.

[@s.o.t_the_real]

the VS screens with the sound effects are dope as hell

[@tensaitenshi]

Didn't expect to watch the entire video, it was very entertaining to watch. I can't imagine how long it took to make this video.

[@randx1075]

1 hour compilation of Grandpa slicing bosses? Count me in!

[@sundoll3710]

wow his first module sure does go hard, I hope his second module doesn’t disappoint!

[@ehpotatoes]

Extremely well done showcase!!! I don’t know what else to say than I am thoroughly impressed with the editing, explanations (which were helpful and entertaining), and especially the VS screens!! Just a comment for the algorithm :D

[@ray_maleknights]

I applaud your dedication! I did full event clears for my favorite characters, so I can easily imagine how much work goes into one. Loved the nicely crafted VS screens. The skin effects are stunning, S3 in particular. Hellagur looked like a sawblade splitting the world in two in 5-10 (esp when on low hp and under Aak), incredible. As for gameplay itself, I'm very fond of how you used the bosses' attacks to Hellagur's advantage - Manfred was the most hilarious, it's so cool how Hellagur can survive a cannon shot and be even happier for it. I know you said you don't really do much here, but may I still offer a tip I was very happy to discover for myself? If you record with music off (in-game setting) while having voices and effects on, you leave yourself a lot of room for more natural speeding up. You can put the very same track back in the editor if you so desire, but it won't be jumbled if you decide to speed up some parts. (And the voices and effects of the sped up part can be turned off if they sound too wacky.)

[@jdawgs1484]

Thanks a lot for the feedback, I thought the same after putting all the clips in the editor and realising it was much longer than anticipated. Thought to myself I should turn off music when recording if I want to speed up clips! Note taken for if i ever do something like this again (maybe hellagur vs all event bosses?). S3 is my favourite skill and Aak+Hellagur is my favourite Duo because the effects look absolutely amazing for S3 (my favourite skill for him), especially on Skin. 5-10 was definitely the most fun for me because of that!

[@KrazyBean14]

I got him during my Reed pulls. He looks sick. Will build him eventually when I have the resources.

[@ehpotatoes]

The Mephisto fight was vey clean 😎

[@Zorgdub]

I am most definitely watching the early boss fights! That's where Hellagur can get closest to soloing maps, and seeing how you had to tweak things to make sure he'd carry as much as possible is interesting.

[@bchynta]

YESSS!! Thank you for doing this!!👏Grandpa👏Need👏Moreee👏Appreciation 👏

[@archazazel1855]

I actually just watch 50 min or arknight video wow i am shock well done video very entertaning most of taken a lot of effort honestly prop to you and thank you

[@eternal8559]

Yup that does look like 44 years of combat experience

[@emzaffar2884]

i see gramps i press like

[@Zorgdub]

For 3-8 CM, I wonder if Cutter could have replaced Ch'en. Cutter is another swordmaster who is good at dealing with drones!

[@zepherscotty]

This was a very fun & interesting video. Hellagur isnt a guy I consider to be great, i usually opt for Mudrock or La Pluma/Highmore in terms of unites that cant be healed but are useful in certain situations, but he's very good in the right circumstances.

[@Doodle2077]

Hellagur: I WILL NEVER DIE!😡

[@BigbangNic]

Amazing!

[@Иероглифы-и7ш]

Good video, good job👍

[@jdawgs1484]

Glad you enjoyed such a long video! Hellagur became so much better so I felt a need to just go through every Story Boss straight after his module released (though his damage issue with highly armoured enemies is still the main problem that hasn't been addressed). It's unfortunate that his new module isn't very good at all :(

[@DaferXGT]

U choose greythroat, you have my respect

[@skycats6663]

I desperately want imposter lord to come home to me so I can frustratingly lose a run I'm trying so hard to win in a funny way or watch Mudrock bonk the speed of light.

[@alita92]

love it

[@tankGatto]

aww mann... sacrificing durin like that. what are you, pre-amnesia doctor who sees ops as sacrificable pawns?

[@CoyLasagne]

this is so cool. Great work !

[@Angelina-San]

Pov : Fighting talulah stage (I forgor name) Medics : *trying to heal helladude* Also Hellagur : *Puts glasses* YOOOOLOOOOO

[@need_coffine]

Using hellagur feel like using the devil trigger in devil may cry 3, you just cant die

[@gluewz1318]

Hellagur is hellagud 🔥

[@Ayush_kaneki]

Very beautiful video, just loved it. I am also an hellagur enjoyer, would love to m9 module him if i get him🥲 This video was such impressive for me to know much more about him Great work, keep it up

[@UbyDlh424]

Wow, Thorns is useful for every stage😮

[@jhsoo2002]

Who is he? HE IS OUR GENERAL

[@ryzen831_yt]

8:43 im losing a brain cells rn and questioning myself how are the enemies in the right side of blue box can walk pass the lane without losing a life point?!

[@jdawgs1484]

A new comment for an old video! Welcome and hope you enjoyed! I believe its because that enemy in particular's path was set to walk into the blue box on the far left as the main target. Thus when it walks through the right blue box it doesnt count as that wasnt its target blue box in the first place. Hope that helps!

[@shadow_rsa7883]

jd op

[@ReedSolutions]

Aak s3 is really meant for hellagur 😂

[@MrMRAZb]

i want to try prepare setup for next CC - Hellagur dodge master( Deepcolor +Tsukihogi + Mayer )vs Hateful Avenger. but i don't know how calculate dodge in AK

[@jdawgs1484]

Dodge is all multiplicative, So you have to multiply them together!

[@Who-nm7kd]

More like Hellagud

[@ヌヌィヌトヌェレヌ]

Questions from Japanese, Why do foreign players use Japanese voices?

[@VitaleKevin]

Speaking for myself, I like the original way more than the english dub(wich I think its pretty forced and emotionless)because of the high quality of the japanese voice actors.
