I like this. 

 

makes the personal challenge not just feel like a smaller version of the community one.

 

may even encourage better barrier use and people sticking together.

 

though I guess it can be cheesed by soloing routine, hope it only counts it when you have 2+ players in the game.

 

it must count soloing routine, otherwise it would be very frustrating for some people.

Hmmm, as someone who exclusively plays pug, let me just just say: We live in interesting times.

Hmm, to me it appears a lot will be solo'n routine to complete the individual challenge, then not giving an eff about the community challenge, as they will go back to perilous so they can speed level....

 

Last 2 days, since I started playing again, has taken forever to find parties, and only 5 pug's I was in actually completed. So I spent my whole time solo in routine, since that is all I got the equipment for to handle....

 

So, I'll be solo'n again later today.....as for the weekend....won't be here like always, as typical, BW thinks nobody works weekends....

 

Gotta remember, there are jobs out there that HAVE to be worked on weekends and that is our schedule.....

 

Have fun completing guys, as AGAIN, like every other WE, I won't be around after the first 8 hours of it.

So basically go to Routine and....
          speedrun

                    noobie-shame

                              noobie-help

the pugs by...

          kill-stealing

                    OPmuch

                              kill-helping

so they can't fall or die. Got it!

I'll be levelling up my Keeper (and Elementalist) over the weekend...

You said it Shadoz.  Archer speed/critical return build can walk thru Routine pretty easily. SO that where I spend my time.

 

Eventually I'll get a good bow and maybe try higher levels...but since I hate the other classes...probably not as I also don't have the time to waste leveling them all up for the stats.

 

So archer it is in routine and speed thru for levels....

Strategies? Or more soloing?  :D

 

That'll be six solos, yup.

1. pug routine with a Katari (he can't die on routine and kills routine mooks significantly faster due to CB)

2. rush ahead of your team and kill everything so your team can't die

3. pray they won't die to arcane horror and revenants.

 

that's my plan allright. I wonder how many games will look like this

- start game

- instant druffalo catches someone off-guard and charge-kills him/her

- entire team leaves

I guess no matter what challenge they put up, someone will find a fly in the ointment.

While that is true, I think the gripe with the "no one is downed" criterion isn't undeserved. Most people hope the weekend events will encourage 1) more active participation and interest in the game, and 2) increased teamwork. Setting it up so that soloing achieves the goals faster is counterproductive to the second. (Assuming that's what the community goal means)

To be clear, BW says knocked down, they mean being knocked unconscious.

Edit: have people actually confirmed you can get the personal challenge by soloing? I have a feeling it will require 2 people at the least.

Easy enough to test it with one Routine solo as Arcane Warrior <insert your favorite character here>.

Since the immortal medals have shown up, I don't think I've ever done a pug game where everybody got one. Solo4lyfe

Running a bunch of lolThreatening yesterday and we were routinely (heh) getting Immortal for everyone. We even commented, 'Now that Gold Medals don't matter we're racking them up like crazy.'

I suspect we'll see many Ele's with barrier and Lego's tanking like a...tank. Dammit, I can't think of a decent simile.

Has bioware made any adjustments to routine i wonder?  Last night while having the server problem I was forced to solo some matches.  Characters were magic based around level 12.  On threatening I made it to wave 4 I think and then one of those Rhinos showed up and steamrolled me to death.  Then I played two easy matches thinking I could get to the last wave at least.  I failed at about wave 3 both times.  It seemed much harder to me than before.  Perhaps it was just the classes I chose but the last few times I soloed routine it seemed not too terribly hard.

Tanking like an aquarium.

 

 

No, that totally didn't work, I'll show myself out...

I am going to guess that after last weekend we are going to crush this challenge.  It wouldn't surprise me if they made it overly easy to complete as a make up.

I have only really had them in perilous/threatening private games where everyone was reasonably levelled. but that gets kind of rare when everyone starts piggy-backing level 1 characters for quick promotion.

I want your pugs then, I always end up with dopes.

Another high level spamming routine solo/pug matches kind of challenge. I wish there are some kind of lvl/difficulity/class restrictions on these challenges which will make them truly engaging.

Thesaurus to the rescue!

 

Tanking like a... pond ?

Tanking like a... pool ?!

Tanking like a... reservoir ??? no it's not that kind of tank you stupid thesaurus

Tanking like a... aquarium ? Jeremiah12LGeek already used this

Tanking like a... basin ?

Tanking like a... cauldron ?

Tanking like a... cistern ?

Tanking like a... receptacle ? LOL, my favorite

Tanking like a... vat ?

 

Yes technically these are synonyms and a simile would be a comparison to something that is LIKE the original thing, not SYNONYMOUS with it.
