i’ve been trying to do the scriers gaze penance and its been a bit… impossible. the penance seems simple on paper, just kill 40 enemies while gaze is active, simple and fast penance. but then you get into a mission with some people and things get a bit complicated because people will always kill your targets no matter what, not to mention gaze always ramps up to 100% really damn fast, meaning you’ll never be able to actually get it without frame perfect team work and 40 enemies all being killed by soully you at max level with all anti-peril modifiers and stuff equipped while also quelling every time you hit 60%.
the way i would fix this is by making the peril gain only 2/3rds of what it is now and making the required kills 30 instead of 40, that way its not nearly as much of a grind and you’re not going to need to take a massive break from the game while trying to get the penance.
This penance needs no fixing.
You would probably finish it within 1 mission, if you brought the right loadout for the job.
Change your approach.
You could use a Purgatus staff and the “10% chance to quell 10% peril on kill” talent.
If you still can not manage to get it done within a few matches, get 1 other player to group up with you and start a private mission.
Burn down the first horde and the penance is done.
Today, you have deemed two very easy penances to be very difficult.
For further penances, i suggest that you think more and try harder, instead of immediately claiming that something is impossible.
when did i call cliffhanger impossible? i never did that. and i’m using impossible as hyperbole so that people know that its extremely hard to do due to how fast peril generates and the fact that most people won’t be able to do it within a day because of that fact. plus, the fix i proposed is more than fair and would be perfect for the penance.
True. You did not literally call it impossible.
You just said that
you think they picked the requirement based on the highest number they were able to achieve
the current number is not plausible to achieve
it is so difficult to beat the penance, that it would take more than a week of trying
You did not literally call the cliffhanger penance “impossible“. You only described it as “not plausible to achieve” but that is not relevant to the point i made.
See? I corrected it, changing it from “impossible” to “very difficult”. Nothing about the meaning of my comment has changed.
So was i.
As described in posts above, it is not hard, if you are choosing a good approach.
Ragnar and i have told you how to do it.
We both beat the penance.
When i attempted to get this penance, i literally got it on the first horde that spawned.
It is not difficult. You just did not bring the right tools for the job.
