Because really? Let's translate this challenge... "Complete this challenge by the killer choosing not to do their job at all or have the matchmaking put you in a match way below your mmr." This never should have made it past initial thought processing. I'm all for challenging challenges but this isn't challenging, it's purely luck based and needs to start AND stop with this tome. I don't mean to sound nasty but this challenge is literally impossible in your average match. The tome freaking ended before I could get a single one and I still don't have one.

For anyone who would respond by "Just go around it or do compendium challenges if you haven't completed them all yet," I have. This is literally the final tome challenge I have left and it kills me that a challenge like this is the only one left.

    This particular tome entry was complained about when it was first released in the rift. In most cases you either have to get it via the killer DCing, getting a brand-new-never-played-the-game-before killer, hiding most of the trial, or hope you have a god looper show up randomly to keep the killer busy for 3-5 gens.

    Honestly, this challenge is nothing compared to needing to have all 4 Survivors on basement hooks at once.

    With the upcoming AFC it will literally be impossible to do unless you end up against a streamer's team who are willing to give you the challenge.

    Some past challenges were made unreasonably hard because of updates and should be modified or replaced.

    I am mostly speechless about this. I've done the challenge you're referring to and the only thing I can say is you either don't play survivor at all or rarely play survivor but have a knack for it if you actually think the challenge you're describing is harder to get than 3 Iridescent Unbroken Emblems. Lemme ask you this, how often are you downing survivors in your matches? Because every first down on a survivor you get, they would instantly lose this challenge for that round if they were doing it. You're right that BHVR has a knack for making older challenges harder with updates. However, the challenge you're describing is not entirely luck based even with the new system BHVR is implementing. You can't control whether or not you're going to get caught and downed in a match if you are found, the game is designed so that you can't run forever and get with the wrong teammates, which in solo queue happens more often than not, you won't be doing any 5 gen chases and escaping before the killer downs you meaning you lose the challenge. You have multiple chances to get all 4 Survivors in the basement at once in a killer match, but in a survivor match you only have one shot to get Iri Unbroken and if you get caught you blew that shot.

    What kind of challenge would you rather have?

    Honestly if they really wanted an iridescent emblem challenge, I wouldn't mind if they simply just changed which emblem it was or make it Gold Unbroken. Just not Iridescent Unbroken because that is too luck based.
