So I have been trying to complete the survivor challenge where you have to point in the killers direction within 5 seconds of premonition going off and do this twice within the same match. I tried to do this challenge for like two hours but I just couldnt do it. I even brought OoO in the last few matches I tried to do the challenge so that way I could actually see the killer and make sure I was pointing in the right direction. Has anyone completed this challenge yet as I feel like I'm missing something.

    Someone says you need to point twice in a row.

    Don't quote me on that, i don't know myself.

    On a sidenote, yes: Some challenges could be worded better, this is not the first confusion related to the Archives.

    saw someone complete it on stream: when premo goes off point where you are looking and then turn left slightly to the side and point again a few times

    You have to make sure your character is facing where premonition goes off and do the point emote. I stopped what I was doing and pointed every time it went off, a couple times more than once. I probably pointed at the killer 10 times that match and confused the ######### out if my teammates.

    You have to let the entire pointing animation play out. So basically point and then don't touch your controller for like 2-3 seconds just to be safe.

    I'm having trouble with Risky Repairs. A complete toilet of a challenge.

    I tell you, challenges get worse with each Rift.

    Soon it will be 'complete all gens without any other survivor touching them with the game uninstalled'.

    I'm not discrediting people's irritation with this challenge, but I honestly got it first time.

    For me, Risky Repairs is their Rift level's 'clanger'.

    Same. Every time Premonition went off, I dropped whatever I was doing and pointed a whole bunch of times, just hoping that two would count by the end of the match, and they did. I have no idea which two.

    This illustrates the problem - it's way too luck based. I've been trying for hours and still can't get it.

    Today I played for the first time in two weeks and almost did all survivor challenges (I only have the "finish two gens in the killer's TR" and the "survive while 9 others escape" ones left, and all the killer ones since I suck at killer). This one only took me two tries and I quite enjoyed doing it, but maybe only because Premo is already in my basekit and I practically rely on it (only been actively playing for about 4 months now)


    Basically, what I did was crouch as soon as Premo went off (because slower movement), held w (or Forward, depending on what you play on, kb&m or controller; to make sure my character always looked into the direction my camera was pointed at), spammed 1 (the pointing button) because I figured you don't necessarily need to finish the pointing animation, and moved my camera left and right in that 45° cone that is Premo's effective range. Just *click click click click click* while moving your camera.

    It's even easier if you approach the killer after they downed someone, because then you can get in range and have the killer not move because they are in the picking up animation, making it easier to point directly at them. Another good thing is to have Kindred or any other short-range aura reading perk to determine the killer's exact position to make lining your character up a lot easier.


    Best thing is to get a facecamping, or hell, an afk killer who moves as little as possible.

    And good luck with slugging killers.

    You need to point two times in a row.

    Itll be pretty easy when you do it everytime your premonition procs just to be sure.

    you shouldnt worry if the killer thinks its bm
