in short, this needs changed to something that feels good to atempt and doesn’t grief you’re team
it also needs to work well with the “magic poxwalkers” that suddenly appear out of thin air and melee you (naturally failing the penance there and then)
as it stands the only way i have seen people complete this penance is through cheese means (not saying it’s impossible) but it is very very hard to complete
my suggestion is have be something that uses a less popular feat or kill X number of enemies before they hit you’re team mates
perhaps a simpler penance is [ on malice or higher, as the sharpschooter complete a mission without using a melee weapon]
still fits the name, has some challenge to it if you get swarmed, and wont be so frustrating to get.
Isn’t this the one where you just don’t take health damage all mission? I got this one by just playing the game normally, using chamo cloak, and standing in good spots. If you hear an attack coming just dodge, pull out your melee and block (like always). None of the vet penances really need reworking. Hell they made it easier because now dogs don’t damage you.
i might just suck but trying it solo really difficult even with camo, because the chance of a stray attack hitting you are just to high and its damage in general i think, but that could have been changed.
You’re probably pretty close to getting it then. And you won’t have to do a bunch of memey stuff. Just keep playing 4s and start to look at 5s. Its actually mostly about not taking damage to play the higher difficulties so if you just pay attention to fighting while not taking damage you should be able to drop back to Malice and just breeze through it.
I’m not saying its automatic or a totally easy penance. Its very easy for a dog to jump you or something. But you’ll probably get good enough at avoiding damage very soon. I never paid attention to the vet penances and got htem all through the course of play but I do recall getting this one on malice after i started getting into damnation and after I started playing more zealot so I could teach myself the melee queues. Worked for me anyway, might work for you. GL.
Honestly, this one’s not that offensive. Annoying, perhaps, but fine. Just run Camo Expert and keep your teammates closer to the enemy than you are and you’ll never be targeted. I got both this and the general penance for taking 0 health damage in an entire mission on the same go the first time I tried with Camo Expert active.
No, the real offender here is Make Every Shot Count. Requiring 100% accuracy AND ending the mission with 0 ammo left encourages players to run a low ammo weapon, empty all of their ammo early, and then spend the rest of the mission using only their melee weapon. On Heresy and especially Damnation, a Veteran who’s pretending to be a diet Zealot instead of doing his job of clearing enemy shooters and specials is honestly more of a detriment to the team than a bot. This penance really needs to be changed to something more reasonable that doesn’t encourage cheesing it and then gimping your team to avoid failure.
bro the first game i tried i acrually got it AND untouchabble at the same time legit. you must have blessed me 8 times with the emperors grace! the sticking to corners really helped and realized that yea, its not that bad at all.
