What is with these tome LEVEL 1 challenges?

While using the perk Teamwork: Power of two, finish healing a health state of another survivor, stay within 12 meters of them for 15 seconds, AND escape the trial as thalita lyra?

This is just a level 1 tome!


Meanwhile the other one is just: "use Teamwork collective stealth as renato and escape the trial"

    Yea I hated doing that one. Took me 3 or 4 tries.

    Damn, sounds like they're finally called CHALLENGES for a reason.

    Wasn't a fan of that challenge at all. Should've been either heal someone and stay by them for 15 seconds OR escape while running that perk, not both.

    Yeah this challenge is a pain. It's the only challenge this time that I feel like skipping.

    Some of them look really goofy this time around. I don't own any character from Tools of Torment, and I've already done every other challenge, so I'm just waiting around for 9 days.

    I guess I can go back and clear a couple older tomes, because they contain some equally tough and ridiculous challenges I skipped. Anyone got a full list of the old challenges they rebalanced in this patch?

    It certainly isn’t nearly as bad as what we got in tome 1 if anyone remembers that.

    Challenges like that are meant to punish Survivors for playing solo, you don't really believe BHVR has any interest in keeping solo Survivors do you?

    Really overexaggerating here.

    Heal a survivor

    Follow them for fifteen seconds

    Escape the match by any means necessary

    Yes, it was a pain in the ass. I suppose you could do the healing part then bring a key and Left Behind. Seems like a big middle finger to your team though.

    that's not all that difficult tbh, it's just a lot of words to say "escape after getting value from thalita's perk"

    it's like, "heal someone and escort them to a gen, then escape"

    I don't think the challenge is all that bad, though I suspect it'll be deceptively difficult to actually finish. In terms of design, though, it's just another one of those "use the perk on the character and escape" challenges that pop up in these tomes, just with a slightly weirder and more finnicky perk to use.

    It's weird they chose Power of Two for page one of the tome, though, that I agree with. That'd make more sense later on, and use like, Cut Loose for this page.
