This week I rerolled Grimoirs weekly because Grimoirs suck, I rerolled a couple of “Kill 1000 dregs/scavs with melee”, which I don’t want to do as a Psyker.
I then get stuck with “Finish 6 Secondary Objectives within the Mission Power Matrix HL-17-36”.
This Weekly contract is way too hard and punishing.
First of all you have to target 1 specific map, which might or might not spawn in the mission table. It might or might not spawn with secondary objectives at all, and it might spawn at difficulty 4-5 which is pretty hard with randoms.
You also have to “Complete” the secondary mission which means you HAVE to get all 3/3 scriptures or 2/2 grimoirs to get progress on the weekly contract. 2/3 Scriptures = 0 progress. And then you have to do this 6 times!
On top of that, there’s a bug that sometimes stops the progress even if you do complete the secondary objective. Last night I did a Herecy 3/3 scripture run and I am still at 2/6 on the contract, instead of 3/6. (Apparently if you play in a strike team, but the only way to actually get the objectives done is with a strike team of friends. Randoms don’t care and just rush and die.)
This week alone since reset I’ve done this map between 10-15 times, and I am still at 2/6. It’s disgusting that I am forced to play the same map over and over to be able to get the 1000 bonus reward for 5/5 tasks completed.
This contract has to be changed or removed, it’s a horrible design for a weekly. It also only gives 210 tokens for completion and is considered a “Medium” complexity.
It should be “Bring home 6 total items from this specific mission” meaning that you can get it completed in a few runs of the same map. Even if you get 1/3 or 2/3 scriptures, it should count towards this total.
This mission has ruined my playtime this week because I feel like I HAVE to play this one map over and over to get my rewards.
TL;DR
Weekly contract “Finish ‘X’ Secondary Objectives within the Mission ‘X’.” sucks. It’s buggy, too punishing, and requires way too much specific farming to complete.
