OD-EX-8 CM, No 6* Bird Operators Only (5 ops)
The EX-8 for the first R6S collab is easier than OD-8, but I figured it would be a fun place to use the no 6* bird squad in. At least, I thought it would be fun until I burnt through entirely too much sanity to get this clear, trying all sorts of ridiculous solutions for problems when I really should've been looking at old recordings more. Oh well.
The main problem is that in CM, La Pluma doesn't kill the slugs in 2 attacks. On NM, she kills every boss spawned slug in P3 by herself, but she needs Pinecone's help in CM... which means she doesn't heal enough and dies. Very frustrating, but I was tilted enough by that that I didn't realize the rather simple solution of using Firewhistle at the end until I had possibly blown enough sanity as to not be able to finish the event shop.
NM is probably a 4 op (removing Mr. Nothing) since Pluma can solo slug lane for Pinecone to redeploy and help Firewhistle kill the 4th infiltrator, who was also a massive bottleneck that resulted in spent sanity on failed solutions. Hate those guys.
