Trouble with stunning challenge

Happy Halloween, everybody!

I'm struggling with a challenge from the first tome. The requirement is to stun the killer with a pallet twice in one match. I have been trying to do this for days now. I have no difficulty with killer challenges. I try to pallet stun killers, but almost every single killer I try to pallet stun doesn't fall for it. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for stunning killers with a pallet?

Thanks all!

    It's pretty annoying. Around half the killers on the roster are a bad idea to even try with, as they're very dangerous to try playing around pallets with.

    Personally, I would wait for an M1 killer and then just camp pallets. Even for killers that hardcore respect pallets, you can force a stun by letting them attack you under the pallet and then dropping it on top of them. Wasteful move, but it gets the challenge done. Bring a medkit to make sure you can be healthy on will.

    So, if I camp a pallet and wait for them to hit me and then drop it, it'll count as a stun?

    Try a pallet vacuum (there are tons of tutorials). You can also fake pallet drops so that when the killer gets tired of respecting you drop when they least expect it. If you're camping the pallets tho, the killer will likely respect, and you won't get the stun. :( Some killers just swing at every pallet and that makes the challenge easier, but most killers aren't like that. Maybe you can camp the really strong pallets, but I can't promise you won't go down for it, but for a challenge, maybe it's worth it.

    Pallet vacuum or wait for an M1 killer. You could also do it with killers who need to charge up (Plague is easy to pallet stun, at least for me). Watch out if you’re doing it against a MYERS or killers with extended lunges (I think Freddy is the only other one with a natural extended lunge).

    It will count as a stun, yes.

    Something which can also help your case would be the Yui perk Any Means Necessary, which allow you to reset dropped pallettes to lifted status.

    I think (not 100% sure) power struggle counts towards it so that could help.

    It does, but Power Struggle is fairly difficult to pull off outside of indoor maps, so I wouldn't rely on it too hard unless you're going the full mile with Flip-Flop and Tenacity.

    Windows would probably be a solid perk choice to help with the challenge.
