You thought this was bad, this week Challenge rift REALLY suck!

24

This week’s is bloody horrible. Only a sadist would choose this knowing we need the cache to progress

OK got it. It’s all about getting to the pylons.

25

Solo’d today’s new one.
Single attempt, 1 minute 50 seconds remaining.
Its another “bypass and assassinate the elites” build.

26

Maybe i got lucky but i finished with 2 minutes 38 seconds left… literally just steed charged to elite packs and maybe one pylon.

27

Meanwhile EU is another snooze fest. :smiley:

28

I’d say they’re all doable this week.

EU is very easy… basically left click should be enough.

Asia is quite easy as well. Mostly just right click.

US is definitely a bit more annoying. I had a few tries that went completely wrong, but I also managed to beat the timer by 60-90 seconds. There’s a lot going on at the start of the second floor - but once you get through that and grab the pylons there (especially the shield pylon!) you should be good.

It’s not elite hunting build. It’s “annoy the heck out of players who don’t like squishy builds” build. You die instantly when your “palacks” drops off.

Since the Altar is blocked at some point asking for a Challenge Rift cache, you cant make it any harder than it currently is, otherwise you would be bloking more than half the altar from most people

31

took me two tries. the first try I died in like 5 seconds. next try, I just mashed every button as soon as they came up and beat it with a lot of time to spare.

Weird build, no doubt. I am still not sure if condemn was doing the majority of the damage or phalanx?

All you have to do is spam haunt. Easy, peasy. The sader is kinda lame, but also, just keep your Akkhan up and spam phalynx and justice.

These are much better when done in groups, too. Do them as soon as they come out, and join a public. You’ll have a much better go at it.

33

Yeah it’s just squishy if you have downtime on Akkhan. That’s the only real issue.

Damage is more than plenty.

I think I was in that same group.
I was not the guy who knew what to do either.

SSF is your char, not your account. You can do CR in group and still claim cache on SSF char.
CR isn’t hardcore either and you can still claim the cache on hc.

CR has nothing to do with your chosen seasonal mode.

Ah thx didn’t know that although I would have to say it goes against the concept in spirit so I wouldn’t do it. Doesn’t matter anyway I finished it long ago.
