H13-1: Bird operators only (6 ops)
Since every relevant enemy on the map has high DEF and most of the ranged tiles aren't great for S3, Magallan's preferred skill for H13-1 is actually S2. The stationary defender mobs have 0 RES and are sitting ducks for the S2 drones, and Gnosis S2 can lock down whips in their range to produce a surprisingly effective crossfire. The high attack speed of the drones also makes them pretty good at pushing the cart, though the one tile range is still very limiting.

This map was fun to figure out, but reviewing the footage makes it seem quite easy so long as you speedrun destroying the first altar. From there the whip mobs are a pretty basic DPS check (no more slugs to heal them) and the rest of the enemies might as well be trash. There are several 30 second or more stretches where nothing really happens- for an H map, this is a little underwhelming, though it's still better than most of the normal story maps. 5 op without Cantabile is probably possible, but I'm not feeling much like optimizing H stages this time around.
