Except for the fact that augmented Crush is percentage based.

It is also a far faster way to completely remove armor than anything Hildryn has access to. Mag with augmented crush needs 3 casts total to remove armor completely for pretty much any mob in the game i.e 4+4+3. Hildryn with 55% armor strip needs 7 casts of pillage to completely remove armor from something like a lvl 135 corrupted bombard.

This is before we even account for how much strength Hildryn needs to get to 55% compared to Mag that barely needs nothing spent on strength.

And as for percentage based shield stripping, who really gives a squat? Shields are already better countered through the gas based weapons you should bring on an armor strip frame in the first place. The only reason to use pillage versus shielded mobs is to sustain your own shield, not to remove theirs since it would be many time faster to just gib them with your gas weapon.
