Been trying it for days now, trying LFG groups, trying with friend groups. Doesn’t matter how well coordinated or how high level it is, it’s completely up to the game. It really is the most difficult penance, something that makes no sense when the likes of Ogyrn simply need to knock down 6 ogryns, got that done in an evening in a LFG, or make every shot count coming in 2nd hardset but still doable as it’s not a requirement for how long you take. A lot of missions simply cannot be met within that 20 mins, not in Heresy with the enemy densities, their health and damage combined with the mission type. Your only solid chance being low-intensity, but since Fatshark decides randomly that one day every single special condition will be replaced with a singular one you like the ‘Hound’ event you can promptly call it a day and try again some other time.
Either increase the time limit again, or reduce the difficulty to malice. You can’t even do it with like minded preachers who are trying to also get ‘Just a Flesh wound’ because everyone ends up being one shot away from death, that doesn’t matter since there isn’t any Preachers that will help as 80% of them have gotten their penance’s when you could glitch it in the beta so if you want to ask for help in Zealot chat, they’ll ignore you and continue to orgasm over the bleedstacks of another dagger they posted in chat. We’ve also gotten 3 of us with 2 preachers trying to get it and a Psyker and hoping that one good hearted community member in LFG will join as a different class to help, Darktide’s community is looking to be on the more toxic side as not a single soul would join to help out in our 2 hours of waiting for 1 random person.
Not a single one of these high-level penance’s test the single skill of one person, it is up to the game wether you will have the conditions you need to get it and you need a team that will help carry you to earn the penance. Wouldn’t even be that bad if this level of difficulty echoed onto the rest of the classes, which it does not so instead of ‘promising’ that they’ll change simply make it temporarily so we can damn earn it because with the selfish nature of everyone the moment the people have gotten the penance they simply couldn’t give a damn if you need help doing it.
If you at least want the bare minimum solution that’ll simply make everyone happy is allow us to create our own lobbies and choose the mission, don’t even need the ability to pick special conditions.
