Pick 'n Mix penance

This penance is absolute BS. The reason being:

  1. You need to get 5 elites / specials to spawn at the same time on a location where you can see them all even after they aggro.

  2. You must have your ultimate ability ready

  3. You must be sitting at 0% peril to begin with.

  4. Then you must one shot each and every one with BB, for which by the way half of them will not at herecy+.

  5. If there is a single veteran or a zealot with a bolter, there is 0.00001% chance you can do it since they are going to just unload their bolter on the elites / specials and obliterate 3 of them before you can get your first non-buffed BB out.

I have been trying to do this penance for hours now. The best I have gotten is 3 different elites / specials. However, I have witnessed a veteran shaprshooter mowing down 4 ragers before I have gotten my first BB cast off.

Lukcily you don’t have to worry about a single veteran because often there are two or three in the team…

I WANT TO SEE THE DEVELOPER WHO DESIGNED THIS PENANCE TO DO IT THEMSELVES.

The thing is, they probably have. In their in-house development teams working together and just didn’t think of how this would play out in PUGs that play across countries through internet.

Wording of this penance is poor. I did it killing crusher and 4 maulers but it was full premade squad. Doing it with random people is a waste of time, try find people on DT discord but it still took us like 5 times before we got right spawns.
I think it is badly designed penance even considering they added 2 seconds (was 10 before).

just another lazy unbalanced penance that devs dont even tryed to do themself.

no even gona mention that game still spawn like 2-3 same elites most of the time that making RNG state of this bs even more stupid

I killed a pox burster, 3 scab shotgunners and a bomber and didn’t get it. Not only did stars have to align to get that combination, the penance has trouble registering at all, my progress is still at 0/5.

I got that penance absolutely randomly while was popping gunners on the other side of the bridge. On the map where u holding the bridge while waiting for elevator. Didn’t even tought that the penance is that big of the issue…

lol, I’ve been trying for a week to get it. -__-

I can definitely see how if you were extremely lucky you could get it accidentally. XD

I’ve been playing high-intensity games hoping I’d get a big enough group of specials/elites, but so far no luck.

The frustrating part is I thought I should have earned it twice by now, but I guess I must have been outside the 12-second window. :frowning:

Either that, or the Penance is currently bugged, but I’ll give Fat Shark the benefit of the doubt.
