This video shows a comp made by sis and it shows 5 win matches.
Sacrosanct vigilance is a ,,stress-DoT“ team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Abomination (damage trinkets) - damage dealer
2nd: Crusader (damage trinkets) - damage dealer
3rd: Man at arms (accuracy trinket + damage trinket) - guardian
4th: Houndmaster (dodge trinket + stress trinket) - DoT dealer
PROS:
1) Porcupine
2) Great damage output
3) Great stress output
4) Great DoT output
5) Great healing potential
6) 3 stunners
7) 2 guardians
8) 2 disruptors
CONS:
1) Marks are a menace
2) Stuns are a menace
3) Stress is a menace
4) Disruption is a menace
5) RNGsus is a menace
Sacrosanct vigilance is a weird stress team, with great strength of DoT and pure damage. You have 3 (self)healers, 3 stunners, 2 disruptors, 2 guardians and 2 riposters. Unfortunately this team is vulnerable against mark and stress teams.
I tried to play a few strategies, like „virtue team“, „original setup“, „full stress“ and „porcupine“. I tried both variantions of Abomination (melee beast / DoT puker), probably the „melee beast“ is better option. And Man at arms (damager / stresser), only damage variantion is better choice.
My advice: Start with Crusader or Abomination for stunning someone, next use Man at arms for buffing the team / opening the riposte, lastly Houndmaster for applying DoT.
I’m dissapointed with this team. Long time ago I was hoping for playing this, on paper looks quite nice - lots of stunners, riposting, DoT. Sounds promising. The reality is way more different… First - you cannot activate full porcupine, because of Abomination in 1st position. Second - your Crusader will always miss his first attack, even with accuracy buffs / trinkets. Third - RNGsus will screw you in dealing deathblows. And lastly (at least for me) fourth - you will get only easy players and even that it’s hard to play. I struggled long time to make some progress, usual tactics didn’t worked, the original setup is just bad because of trinkets and what pisses me off, I couldn’t manage to won a match with all characters (only in starting 2 matches). 3 defeats - against veteran player with damage team [Ancient Chinese special] and 2 darkest players with DoT teams. And I was close to be victorious against veteran player, but he used TACTICAL DESYNC on my winning side.
About score: Actually I tried to achieve at least one more victory with all characters alive - playing the „full stress“ strategy against novice player. I won, but 2 characters died.
I don’t like this team.
For another tips and how play this team better, ask sis (on Discord).
