Loadout Disclaimer
As always, use whatever gear you are most comfortable with, as long as it does not interfere with the strategies and success of the squad. Some gear can be significantly more expensive than others, so you should always factor in economics when considering loadout options for missions. Will the gear help with only a few specific areas, or many? Will it pay for itself quickly, if at all? There is usually more than one way to solve problems - these are what work for many players.
The Citadel is populated by undead and several Trojans. A few beasts and slimes show up, but they are easily dealt with. Fire and Shadow resistant gear and a mix of Elemental and Piercing weapons are ideal. Bear in mind that Vanaduke himself deals fiery Elemental damage, not Shadow.
