Here is the video for N7's Finest:

21:03 - Comradeshepard 7 [v] | TheTechnoTurian

Objectives were objects/hack/devices. I did get 20 headshots (wave 7) before 25 pistol kills (wave 8) as did TheTechnoTurian.

I also put together a video of some of the failures, derpy moments, and a few moments of awesome which can be found here.

Seriously though, great times! That 5WS is proving to be pretty tricky for Limbs and I...

OP update: For the gold duo challenges, I will accept mission successful as I have for the platinum duos (not just full extraction.) Missiles are still only permitted on objective waves however.

I hope that's fair to those who have already completed these with full extraction?

Thanks! :)

As I said, Pres, there's no need to change the rules. They're reasonable.

The lack of missile use on extraction is what is driving me completely bananas because if Salmon could've missiled the Banshee on my corpse, I wouldn't have bled out and he wouldn't have gotten sync'd.

I think I'm done with these duo challenges, however, they just appear to be far too much for me to handle and are way too grindy for me. Doing a challenge 6 times and then finally completing it is not a big deal, but then to do another challenge with several partners and have all of the attempts fail, only to have one finally succeed and then for us to wipe on extraction? Yeah, I'm mad about that.

Are you changing that for all Gold duos? Because if so, me and Dida's GI Armature run can count now (the one where I forgot about no-rockets-on-extraction and let one accidental rocket fly).

Rockets still aren't allowed on extraction though.

I changed the full extraction requirement because there was mention that it was harsh. I've left the no missile req because if I change that, I'll have to specify for each challenge whether it's allowed or not which I find is even more confusing than only allowing missiles on objective waves. :/ lol

so confusion. much animosity. duos wow! :P

Not that confusing. It's my fault for trying to BSN while at work. I had thought I'd read your full post when I replied, but realized afterwards that I had not. It was one of those "had to minimize the browser window too quickly" moments and I reading failed.

Not a big deal and certainly no fault of yours. Image IPB

Should we note what the results were for future submissions? Using one of my old videos as an example,

21:44 - Pint_Glass_Hero | FatherOfPearl [v] -  FE

So we would have FE for Full Extraction, LS for Lone Survivor, and MS for Mission Successful (if you can get it without having anyone extract, I honestly don't remember)

Thanks DR :) (Trust me, I know what you mean with bsn'ing at work!) I want people to enjoy the duos and not hate life trying them (or me). I'm also just trying to keep them consistent across the board so there aren't an overwhelming amount of rules.

I understand what is frustrating regardless is that with missile restrictions, you really can't save your team-mate from being grabbed in any non-objective wave. It's definitely happened to me and my duoing partner (cough kocka) on a number of occasions. Hopefully though, with the mission successful rule, even if you are grabbed in extraction, you guys can still get the challenge done :)

@FoP: You can get it without anyone extracting and still get mission successful. I'm ok with allowing your run into the HoF if others don't mind. Edit: My bad, That run is already in there, it was just an example lol. I don't think I need to specify though.. mission success is mission success. It's all good to me.

Yeah there was nothing I could do there, you had no gel with 2 brutes and a banshee on you and I couldn't rocket. So frustrating because I had 5 gels and 2 rockets left.

Alright, cool. I'm just a little concerned the people will start deliberately wiping on extraction to get a faster time, but I know that nobody here could do that and still feel good about the run.

^ It's a good point. I also hope that nobody would do that. The thought never even occurred to me. I trust that everyone would actually try to go for extraction for a gold run. Especially knowing that even if they get downed with 3 secs left, it would still count.

I thought you could only get mission succesfull (without anyone extracting) if the extraction timer runs out while at least one person is still in the process of bleeding out. If everybody bleeds out earlier you get mission failed. Am I wrong?

That sounds right, but it's been so long since I was in that position that I don't remember for sure.

That's correct. Also if one person is alive but at the other end of the map and doesn't try to extract, it would still be mission successful.

Right, at least one player must be still breathing.

I'm completely fine with the new rules, I don't think I had that many challenges where we failed because of extraction.

Most of them don't really feel like a grind to me, but that obviously won't hold true for everyone else. That said, I can see why the 5 waves survived thing can be extremely rough on "The Enemy of my Enemy" challenge. For one, whoever is not host will likely have to deal with double cloak bug which results in a lot more aggro being dropped on them. Ravagers are just unforgiving when that happens while you are trying to fend off the rapid fire enemies that drop you quickly and can't cloak to shed them off you. A lot of people aren't going to be able to escape a bad situation and manage an escape without burning up a gel or multiple ops packs on it. 2) Certain objectives can pretty much blow any chance of it on London since Husks and Banshees close in so quickly that even kiting doesn't help but so much.
