I need help with the Fight Back challenge

Hey everyone, I'm trying to complete the first tome and I'm currently stuck on this specific challenge. In most matches, I can't get more than one stun, and you know Murphy's Law; players with Spirit Fury and Enduring are not in my queues.
Maybe you completed this challenge?
I'd appreciate any advice!

    Simplest way find a killer player who is friendly and lets you farm it. Best map for doing this challenge would be most likely Gideon Meat Plant because of the amount of pallets.

    Perks for this to make it easier would be Power Struggle, Flip-Flop, Windows of Opportunity and Any Means Necessary/Unbreakable/Plot Twist. You can use Windows of Opportunity to know where the pallets are to make it easier to get the stuns while looping them. If he leaves you and has not broken all the fallen pallets lift them up with Any Means Necessary so you can use them again. When you are hurt go down on the pallet recovering as much as you can that then transfers to wiggle progress with Flip-Flop and then stun the killer with Power Struggle when they pick up. You can change Any Means Necessary to Unbreakable to get faster recovery after getting downed. Still if the killer has any brains they will not fall for the Power Struggle thing more than once. Plot Twist would also be possibility as you can just use it to down yourself on the pallet and as it makes recovery +25% faster. Its good if you manage to do it when the killer is swinging at you but does not connect as you used the perk so he has to wait the missed hit cooldown before he can pick you up. You can of course replace Windows of Opportunity too with one of the other perks if you trust your map sense enough to find the pallets or use map to see locations of those.

    In the end you just need to hope for a killer that does not care to get stunned like they are running build with Enduring and Spirit Fury those will intentionally try to get hit by pallets. Tome 1's Page 4 challenges are hard ones as it was the first one and they thought it would be more fun to people if there was challenge. Later Tome's have way easier challenges than those.

    The best way is to trade health states. You should get one or two stuns normally and then finish it with trades. Wait at the pallet, let them hit you, then stun them.

    The perks you suggested can do the job. Unfortunately I don't have Flip-Flop or Conviction, I guess I'll have to play it risky with pallets and hope to help a teammate with a pallet stun. 😅

    Overcome with heal build could also work take hit on a pallet trading the hit for stun and use Overcome to get away and heal yourself fast.

    Thats good way if killer isnt friendly and doesnt give it to him but nowdays there are many killers with some range attack so camping a pallet isnt ideal and wont work all the times not to mention sometimes can killer hit you and end up on other side without the stun like legion using frenzy but thats mostly server issue or ping issue i believe.
