Strategy
Cruciatus the Generous is immune to almost everything besides Vulnerability. And since his Auto Ability will only counter melee once per turn, you can use this to your advantage to get up close and personal with the Purgator. Also, making your Interceptor as powerful as possible is key to winning the battle, by using Quicksilver, Honor the Chapter, Warp Speed, and Battlefield Medicine on them. Use the Gate of Infinity to get close, and use the Purgator’s Sanctified Kill Zone first, followed by Justicar’s Hammerhand. Use Purgator’s Astral Aim to place Hobbled on Cruciatus and reduce his speed. Now is your chance to use your powered-up Interceptor to place the damaging blow and use up all your AP and WP. If Cruciatus does not go down immediately, split your AP among Justicar, Purgator, and Apothecary to defeat him.
By the second phase, his armor should be partially broken, meaning you can land a couple of critical hits to bring him down.
