Stop 'em in their Tracks - helpful build for struggling survivors

Hello my friends,

the second Haddie master challenge on the 4th tome page got changed to "Stun or blind the killer 4 times. Complete this in a single trial." This might sound daunting at first, especially if your killers tend to respect paletts and not fall for the classic stuns (and the killswitched Flashlights don't allow for easy blinds after a stun, but theoretically you should equip one for this kind of challenge), but with the right builds its relatively easy.

The build: Blast Mine, Quick and Quiet, Head On, Decisive Strike

Blast Mine is the real MVP here, as a successful blast counts as both, a stun AND a blind. If done right you don't even need to hamper your teams progress in any real way, as you will be wasting a lot of time of the killer. Ideally you would find a gen to solo, repair it to about 75%, then fail a skill check on purpose and jump into a nearby locker. With some luck the killer will come and check the gen out and seeing that its unattended and at high progress, kick it. With some more luck they will check out the nearest loop and hiding spots, allowing you a Head on stun. Then you got their attention and do some normal looping and hopefully get a palette stun, finishing the challenge.

If the killer hates you after this barrage of stuns and try to tunnel you, Decisive Strike gives you two more chances to easily complete this challenge, even if tunneled. And with some luck you will go down next to a vault and possible locker, allowing you a quick getaway and maybe another Head On, just for the lulz.

EDIT: Ooops, I accidentially posted this in Feedback, as I still had a tap on that forum section open; I was actually meaning to post this in generals ^_- My bad.
