Scourge of the Purge Challenge - Tome 7 Level 2
My expectations were low. But holy #########.

Oh god....

Well, I am not doing this one.
10 -
...And this is only level 2. Yikes.
I mean, it's not hard to do this once in a game, but twice is asking quite a lot. Honestly, your best bet with this challenge is to:
-Run Discordance and Tinkerer and then spray all over the place while approaching a gen
-Proxy camp unhooks and try and hit both survivors off the hook
-Spray survivors that are tbagging at the gates.
-Just ######### farm it, man.

basement build plague with agitation and aggressive hook camping strats let's go... 😩😩😩😩😩
11 -
Looks like I'll have to hope survivors realise I'm trying to farm.
10 -
Maybe discordance and tinkerer and pray?
3 -
In a single trial? Come on
10 -
I feel like the person designing challenges never actually plays the game.
We also have to down 2 survivors within 60 seconds of each other TWICE while using infectious fright.
22 -
Well I know which one I'm leaving till last. 😂😅
3 -
Farmin' time
4 -
Ugh please less challenges that encourage farming/that are reliant on your opponent(s) doing really weird stuff
17 -
That's pretty easy. Hooks exist, as does basement. Give it a few trials and you should have it done.
1 -
well... #########...

But for that, I have the same issue as I did with the Borrowed Time challenge, or the 'be undetected within 10 meters of the killer for 60 seconds as Dwight' challenge. Rift challenges shouldn't be encouraging players to play like asshats and screw over other players for the sake of their challenge. It's bad design unless they genuinely don't care about what they're incentivizing. Given how Corrupt Purge can't be bodyblocked, this challenge may as well have been "facecamp a hook as Bubba 2 times in one game" and the effect would be the same. (Or hit two survivors in one chainsaw sweep, but that's the same issue as Corrupt Purge - it's rare you'll find two survivors right next to each other and moving in the same direction in any other situation.)

Farming it is then! Or being there when they unhook.
I get the disdain for some challenges that may require farming but like most challenges you don’t have to. It will be hard to get but there are very legitimate ways to get this done and even just play styles. You can do it legitimately and possibly wait awhile or 1st game or farm and almost guarantee it first game. I like these because it gives you the option so if you want to legitimately get it while trying then you can and it’s a hard challenge but eventually doable. If that gets too hard and you have done the rest of the challenges there is always the easier route.
1 -
Then every challenge would be almost identical, because you're never going to just play normally and wait for the right moment, you're always going to force it so you can get it over with and move on and that's almost always going to screw someone over.
Besides, one of the oldest and most effective Plague plays is to hook someone a perfect distance away from a fountain (about BBQ distance, 40 or so metres), drink up, and come back in time to devestate the save because everyone expects either camping or saintlike 12-hooking.

Pretty sure the wording on the challenge implies a single stream of vomit hitting 2 people.
Though I hope the wording is just strange and that your version is correct because otherwise this is going to be hell to try and do unless you just camp a hook and vomit on the rescuer and rescuee.
4 -
Hit two survivors with the same stream of Corrupt Purge, not the same fountain. That is vastly more specific and pretty much requires you to be at a hook or to get the drop on a group gen (which requires undetectable or the survivors to commit despite CP, because Plague isn't exactly stealthy.)
It happens during normal gameplay, sure, but not reliably unless you're camping.
1 -
What.
The #########.
7 -
Nice, a challenge that calls for camping... the next week will be fun for survivors.
7 -
Bring the purple addons that make her corrupt purge last longer and move better. I could see this working out.
1 -
Seems terrible design as everyone is saying. Shouldn't force people to play in bad ways.
What would be wrong with just making it once per trial, it's still a fun challenge and might happen whilst playing normally.
4 -
So when I tell people I was camping to complete a challenge, this time I will be telling the truth!
7 -
Level 4
With a single discharge of the Corrupt Purge action down 2 survivors. Do this 2 times.
Must be completed in one match.
2 -
This one might be better than my favourite brain fart challenge so far, the one where you have to pull someone out of a locker with iron maiden.
1 -
That's exactly what I was gonna do. It's 2 survivors, with a single stream of vomit, twice in a trial. I don't want to waste any more time on this ridiculity than needed.
Then I'll let everyone go, because it's gonna be so toxic compared to how I normally play, that I feel infected as well already.

*slowly claps with the most implied sarcasm i have ever mustered*
3 -
They might as well have just labelled it “camp as Plague”, lol.
Whoever makes some of these challenges is a sadist.
5 -
With a single discharge of corrupt purge action down all 4 survivors.
must be completed in one match.
4 -
As a Oni and Nurse main: Good. Very good.
But yeah, the great mind that comes with those challenges does not play DBD.
4 -
*Basement Bubba noises*
4 -
This a joke right?
4 -
Another BS challenge that should have never made it past the drawing board but somehow did?
Disappointed but not surprised.
EDIT: HOLY CRAP if you think this is bad then go look at the level 4 leaks. There's two challenges that are completely out of your control LMFAO
6 -
Hmmm...so they lowered the exp. needed to level up a tome but added challenges that will take extra time to complete. How exciting 👏
2 -
yeah... unfortunately this seems like the best strat. Hope for altruistic survivors and expect a lot of salt in after game chat.
2 -
Well, they did ask for grabs last tome, so no reason to be surprised.
2 -
Guys all these difficult killer challenges are very easy, just farm them. 95/100 times the survivors will work with you and they don't care if you hit them with corrupt purge
0 -
Well, time to add this to my list of challenges that I'm never going to get completed.
0 -
This is a challenge I wouldn't even be able to come up with if you specifically asked me to design a ridiculous challenge. That's impressive.
1 -
I just completed this challenge with the help of a very friendly Meg and Jake who knew what I was after. They just stood still and let me hit them with Corrupt Purge twice. I will definitely be trying to help any Plagues I see struggling to get this wonderfully designed challenge.
2 -
This challenge basically forces you to play like a scumlord in order to reliably get it done. One would either need to camp every hook until a survivor comes, or catch them off guard as a killer with a 32 meter Terror Radius and a global indication that your power is active.
This challenge is not reliable if the team either leaves the person to die or you don't have Discordance and Tinkerer active at the same time.

I farmed for that Challenge. Really, I tried it for two hours, I dont like playing Plague and I was never close to getting it. Two games in those two hours, Survivors did not cleanse at all, I used one Apple, so I had two Shots at this to get it done.
Second challenge so far in all Tomes where I farmed (first one was to get two Gengrabs in one game). IMO too hard for being a Level 2 Challenge, should rather be Level 4. The other one (downing a Survivor 60 seconds after downing another Survivor while using Infectious Fright (two times)) is a cakewalk against this Plague-Challenge.
3 -
Out of interest how do you agree to farm with survivors? Is this easier to coordinate on PC?
I don't like the idea of this but I suppose to get an absurdly annoying challenge I would.

Approach a gen and start hitting it repeatedly until they get the message.
0 -
I'm on console so can't even message them. Just down someone and pick them up and drop them until they break free, or walk around nodding and hitting the generator that someone ran away from they'll get the hint.

I did it with insidious hook camping. Was even a pretty fun game though. Works best on in-game maps like Lery's.
0 -
Discordance, tinkerer and iridescent add on that gives you corrupt purge when gen complete . Job done. Or you collect corrupt purge when someone on hook and head back for when the rescue happens and hit the saver and the unhooked person.
