3. Only way I can see not getting this is if there are more than two Krogan in the match. Other than that, should be smooth sailing.

Actually, your point 3 is what I was talking about. Multiple players playing melee happy Krogans will most likely mean failure for everyone. That, and I've made a point of stealing kills from melee happy Krgoans in the past when I saw them repeatedly come up and melee enemies I've taken down to a bar or two of health. I don't typically have a problem with "kill stealing" as long as the enemy ends up dead, but when taken to extremes it just gets to be annoying.

But what are the chances of there being 3+ Krogan in one match, even with the operation? 

Kill stealing from a proper melee krogan is probably really hard. They kill everything worth meleeing in one swing (thinking again though, I think Pyro's MIGHT live through one swing) and leaving the bigger things alone, less they be insta-killed.

I find it annoying when i'm playing a Krogan and rush off to a group of enemies and  a power comes by in the middle of my murder spree that knockes them over so I miss my swing. Equally annoying when I'm taking down a boss mob and they launch a sniper rifle shot when the boss has 2 armor pips left. Understandable when i've been working on it for a bit and it becomes the final enemy standing, but terrible timing when they just happen to walk by in the middle of the match.

How often do they "intentionally" steal kills? I find that if something is alive in my radius, it's going to be smashed. I usually don't go after something if it's currently being shot at, but i'm not usually around the team to begin with. IT IS IMPOLITE to go headbutting things that have a few bars of health left when a teamate is currently engaging it, unless it's a boss in which case it's fair game.

Still waiting on actual answer for insta-reward and extraction... Sounds like yes for insta-reward and extraction not needed, but still...

was expecting vorcha. Oh well.

Next week: Operation bloodrage: Get a sniper gold medal with a Geth

Seriously i will have to try that krodept solo

[B.Shep]

Blood Rage would be a better name.... Anyway i am surprised by this being pretty much a solo operation.
Anyway, that will be easy to do.

[tfoltz]

No mention of extraction, and all squad members don't get awarded the pack unless each member completes the challenge themselves.

The details are pretty bad in this one.

I guess I'll play a match with friends and we can use the microphone to communicate on who's going for the medal or not. Or something like that.

[verticalrocket]

For once, I'm not excited for a weekend challenge. More than likely have to do it solo and no allied goals. Bleh. Going to get this over with and go about my usual MP business.

[neroscuro]

The previous Admiral Hackett was more talkative.

[megawug]

Have to agree... the OP is so vaguely described, it could mean almost anything. It needs to be updated to clarify the objective.

The challenge info is updated at the end of the round (Mission summary?) and you'll be given your pack at that point regardless of extraction or you dying a horrible horrible death trying to headbutt a Banshee (provided you already had enough kills to get the medal )

Can it be a solo match??

[Jerramie]

  Just completed this challenge twice in one UUS game. Once for 50 melee kills and another time for 5 grabs. Grabs are melee kills-right? This is actually a very easy challenge. Also, this is an individual challenge. If I complete it during a game with 3 other players they do not get credit for it. Just me. Well just me and any other gamertag linked to my Origin account.

Most informative post of the thread.

I completed the challenge and I still have no reward pack yet. Do I have to earn a gold medal in the melee challenge portion under the combat mastery challenge group?

[futurepixels]

Aww, I was excited that there was be a challenge this weekend, but now I look, and the challenge is lame. And there isn't a community challenge.

Hey Bioware, are you trying to take the community out of multiplayer? Cause that doesn't make sense.

I noticed that this is a weekend CHALLENGE not a weekend Operation. My question then is will there still be weekend Operations or have they been completely replaced by weekend challenges?

[Blood Rites]

5 melee per wave. I can handle that.

Normally I'm the first one to go "c'mon people, reading comprehension isn't this hard", but I'm also pretty confused as to whether

a) 1 Krogan on a squad of 4 can get the pack for all 4 players, and
if there are extraction requirements

Challenges are individual.  Your medal, your accomplishment.

Derek many thanks for the response! But this Turian wonders..... where the cheeze and crackers is Chris P?
P.S. Soldiers, I think since this is the new format with "achievements" the HQ is keeping the weekend challenge light.

i have to say, i'm very disappointed in this challenge. if the melee kills required for the gold medal had not just been tripled, then sure, it would be fun. could have an all krogan brawl fest. instead, you are fostering solo play or unfriendly competition within co-op play.

the weekend operations were a fun way to get the community playing together. this...not so much. the requirements are a serious hurdle to more casual players who only have time for 2-3 matches a day (if that). even playing with friends, i cannot see how this would be accomplished with a team on bronze or silver; to guarantee it, one must attempt to solo. i f*cking hate soloing. if i want to play by myself, then i'll play the SP campaign.

the current, as yet un-fixed difficulty spike in silver is already making the game less fun to play. this challenge isn't helping. i'm certain the more "elite" players will welcome the challenge and good for them. but it just doesn't sound fun. solo, or ask you team mates not to kill anything till you get your medal? really, instead of an interesting challenge, this seems like a chore.

Post by Derek Hollan:

"Hey Folks,

As we are now implementing the weekend challenge system, the method for running them is a much smaller scale.

Each challenge consists only of an individual challenge or squad goal. There will no longer be a requirement to organize the entire community for an overall allied objective.

This eliminates the need for fanfare and announcements three days prior to the challenge itself.

It is a much more streamlined system and allows us to implement one each week.

This is not to say we are doing away with the large scale military operations.  In these cases, when we run the larger ops, we will give a three day lead time.

Cheers"
