Characters
When considering characters to bring for HL raids, you want to pick characters that match the various demands of the raid. This particularly means having the tools neccesary to cancel the various omens of the raid. Below are what various characters offer to counter Hexa’s various omens or general usefulness. When picking replacements, consider what the character you are replacing does and if you can meet the various demands with the replacement.
2m Damage Instances
The 2m damage instance omens are the highest priority omens to cancel. When replacing a character, make sure above all else you can still clear them.

Orologia![]() | Skill 2 = 1 Passive with Mysticus Candor = 1 per MC normal attack |

Rei![]() | Skill 1 double strike can be applied to character with 100% TA or GTA |
Hit Counts
Characters that add additional hits to setups via multi hit skills, auto activating skills, or bonus damage.

Fediel![]() | Skill 2 = 6 Normal attack nuke = 6 |
Rei![]() | Double strike to another ally Can be placed on ally that deals most hits |
Nier![]() | Skill 4 = 6 hits after normal attacks Added to MC after death |
Halluel and Malluel![]() | Skill 1 or 2 = 4 CA buff causes both to activate for 8 Skill 3 = 8 |
Debuffs
Characters that inflict debuffs to help deal with the 10 debuff cancel requirements in the Lu Woh/Fediel phase and the final 15% percent.
Fediel![]() | Skill 2 = 3 Normal attacks = 3 |
Halluel and Malluel![]() | Skill 1 or 2 = 2 CA buff causes both to activate for 4 |
Rei![]() | CA = 5 |
Lich![]() | Skill 2 = 4 |
Ilsa (Yukata)![]() | Skill 2 = 2 |
Orologia![]() | Skill 2 = 1 Passive with Mysticus Candor = 1 per MC normal attack |

Dispel skills to counts towards the 3 dispel omens between 40-15%.
Halluel and Malluel![]() | 1 per debuff (5 max) |
Orologia![]() | Skill 2 = 1 Passive with Mysticus Candor = 1 per MC normal attack |
Defense
Characters who provide bar to the team to help maintain CA loops.
Fediel![]() | 100% DEF up Skill 1 = 10k shield and buff that ends on taking damage twice that grants debuff and dispel immunity |
Yamato

Main
Pros
- Yamato makes things easier thanks to its ability to lower cancel requirements.
- Does not require a summon to cross 40%.
- Hit count omens are easy thanks to the bonus damage from the Progression Opus key.
Cons
- Vulnerable to debuffs in the Light/Dark phase if Fediel’s shield isn’t up.
- Respectable but not amazing damage output.
- Difficulty with TA omens unless grid provides enough TA.

General Notes
- Priority is to get Rei
to frontline before 40% in order to be able to use her skill 3 Cold Stare
Take control of all foes, inflicting Cold Stare 1 (Accuracy: g, 1T) on all foes. to safely cross.
- Otherwise will be reliant on crossing an Alexiel.
- Save CAs for 90/70/50 and 5 CA omens.
- Stay below 13 dragon energy. Higher than that will make moving below 40% difficult
- Keep Rei’s skill 1 on MC unless required elsewhere for an omen cancel.
Vermillion & Emerald
- Try to limit movement if possible during this phase as multiple 5 CA omens can prove troublesome.

- Remember to wait to attack into 40% until everyone is ready. This is done in pubs with a sticker.
- Additionally after the trials are cleared, wait til all pearls are down before continuing.
- After every five six presses, you will take 20k plain damage and be inflicted with skill sealed so keep an eye on the Haloed Catalysis level to not be caught off guard.
- Rei’s
skill 3 can be used to negate damage and her skill 4 can be used to turn skip through debuffs.

Final Phase
- Haloed Catalysis still activates after every six skill presses. You can tacticully force this to occur on any given turn to give you the full six skills available for the following turn. It is important to keep in mind if you have enough skills available for the following turn to cancel the omen and if you will need to trip the skill sealed a turn early.

General Notes
- For this setup to work, MC will need to deal at least 4m damage assassins.
- This is so both the base damage and 50% bonus damage from Excalibur (Dark)
count as 2m instances.
- This is so both the base damage and 50% bonus damage from Excalibur (Dark)
- Setup works for either Orologia
or Ilsa (Yukata)
.
- Keep Rei’s
skill 1 on MC unless needed elsewhere for an omen cancel.
