Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    The easiest ways to get it are probably Wraith/Pig aura add-ons or bleeding people out with Deerstalker.

    I find the idea fun. It's fun for me to use builds influenced by these challenges. Relinquish your grip on the meta. Let it go. It will be ok.

    After 1 Doctor game on the game map…

    There are 4 survs… so only 200 secs per surv i think. Not that hard.

    You could change agitation but i did the cary a surv for 500 metres as well in this one.

    I think alot of ppl are just getting intimidated by a seemingly large number when in truth, it goes alot faster than ppl think. Equip lethal Pursuer, and you have 40 seconds immediately rather than 10 for example.

    I got it randomly bc I've been playing an insane number of matches as Chucky with a full aura build and didn't even bother to read the challenges… but 800 secs is crazy lmao

    Honestly, figuring out a killer and build to get the maximum amount of aura reading was actually fun.

    A lot of people have mentioned it but it's pretty quick to do with a couple aura perks. In fact I got lucky and did 4/5 of the weekly and all my dailys in a single match.

    Wraith with Silent Bell and All Seeing combo'd with Agi, IG, Lethal and Awawa. One of the people went AFK at the start and I was able to chase around everyone with my backpack!

    Was a pretty fun match just messing around!

    Does each survivor contribute to this individually? Say, you run Lethal and you see four auras at the start of the match, is that just 9 seconds flat or 9 seconds per survivor (so 36 in total)?

    If it's the latter, than this should not be that difficult to get.

    You can play ghostface with iri camera addon. I did the math - with lethal persuer and this addon.
    8 hooking gives you 252 seconds for a quest. Just for one perk with one addon. (you need to knock marked people)

    You can also use floods of rage, bbq, bitter murmur additionally.

    So it can be done within one game.

    We should not cry about more challenging quests that make us put some thought into a match. We need more of them.

    Wraith with all seeing, pig with Amanda's letter and myers with scratched mirror can easily complete this in 1-2 trials. If you also use perks like lethal pursuer, bitter murmur, floods of rage and darkness revealed, it's very feasible to get this in a single trial.

    It was just as odd as 15 generator skillchecks in 1 round lol i had a friendly killer for that one that just farmed with others while i ran through 4 full generators to get those skillchecks. Aside from that i just slugged someone and sat at a distance watching with deerstalker, when someone picked them up i went after the new person and so on. Went by pretty quick

    I guess that's how they intended for players to stop throwing games to meet challenges.

    It makes you want to get into a game with Myers with Scratched Mirror or Wraith with All Seeing and spend the whole game doing nothing but stalking the survivors.

    Not only the grinding is greater than before, but the challenges are just as disgusting.

    The challenges are pretty passive now, and since we have until the rift ends (80+ days to go?) to complete it, I don't think it's that big a task in the long run. The devs also have the stats and would know how often aura perks are used and how much value they give, which is where the 800 would have come from.

    Well, having now completed this ritual with the build shown above, I can confidently say that yes, each Survivor aura contributes individually. This took 3 matches.

    If you're stuck on this, here's the build that did it for me — one match, zero stress.
    Doctor prescribed shock therapy, and it worked. Maybe it'll save someone else a headache too.

    Coming back to this after playing a couple matches, I'm very close to done after only four and that's with two of them kinda stalling out so not as much gen repair happens - which is relevant because my aura perks were Gearhead + Lethal.

    I think this is a case of the high number looking scarier than it actually is, this seems fine. Weeklies could still probably do with some slightly more potent rewards overall, but I don't think this one is problematic in a way the others aren't.

    For anyone struggling, 2v8 Aura Reveal counts.
