A Way to Skip Certain Archives Missions
Just wondering how people would feel about adding a way within Archives to outright SKIP certain challenges that either seem impossible at a certain level of play, or require certain perks/tactics/playstyles that some of us despise and would rather avoid using ourselves.
The system I propose will have it that you can "complete" an archives mission with NO REWARD (other than the entries into the Archives, but I'll get to that.....) and allows you to continue onto the rest of the Archives missions.
Using Iridescent Shards, probably a hefty amount of BP (at LEAST what you'd get from the mission, and maybe a bit extra) or maybe Auric Cells, you can have the Archive mission count as being completed and you forfeit any possible reward from the challenge outside of the data entries. Those missions that are classed as Master Challenges will cost more, and so will those with Archive entries attached to them, which will have a set value of increase to compensate for the fact that these are a higher level of challenge.
If you have already made progress into a mission, such as "Break 30 Pallets/Generators" or "Heal 5 full heath states of others with Botany Knowledge and a medkit" cannot be skipped as you have already started the challenge. No reduction in cost to skip. Just unable to do so.
Any skipped mission with an Archive entry attached to it will unlock the entry into the logs, but as stated earlier will cost significantly more than other missions to compensate for the fact that these missions are special missions and the archives themselves should be earned.
Before you even ask, I just REALLY don't want to the NoED challenge because I hate that perk with an absolute passion, and I don't see any way with my current ranks or current killer pool to complete the challenge with Dark Sense and 4 generators without a full squad working together for one person's archive. No Mither is also going to be an absolute pain in the higher ranks since killers find you to be an easy target.
I just think that this is going to be a fair way to get past missions that some community members feel are just too hard for them or have a challenge that requires them to screw over teammates in order to get their mission done.

I'd like it. Like if it has a lore page or something keep the page locked until you do it but if you need to leapfrog a challenge why not imo.

If you have to use auric cells then I would prefer the reward as well tbh

I didn't think of that, but I also don't really want Auric cells to be a part of this. I mean, paying real money to ignore Archives is kind of dumb.
