Dark Senses Challenge

So I'm thinking the challenges in the Tier 4 "Dark Senses" needs a slight nerf. Getting 4 gens completed is near impossible at high ranks because, oh I don't know, playing the game? There is a thing called the killer that can chase you and make YOU waste time while your team completes gens. The only thing this particular challenge has inspired me to do is DC once there is only 3 gens left. I think the challenge needs to be nerfed to 3 gens not 4. That seems a bit more reasonable.

    Well I'm rank 3 and I did it at 2nd attempt, and even one survivor disconnected even before one gen was done. But yeah, it can be tough.

    Personally I have problems with 4 pallets stun in one game challenge. That's more tough in my opinion, cause I often get his before I even drop the pallet and even if I manage ti stun the killer it's nit 4 times in one game.

    did this challenge at r3, all you need is comodius toolbox with addons and use a shroud offering so everyone starts together.

    Equip Bond. Really helped me keep track of other survivors.

    Always go to the gens with other survivors on them.

    Don't go for unhooks etc, leave that to the other survivors.

    You'll get there.

    *Admittedly I did get extremely lucky with this challenge: a Legion let me have the last gen after I kept relentlessly trying to complete it. I was the last survivor, did the gen, got the challenge, escaped and got the Left For Dead trophy in the process. So it's very easy for me to advise on how to get the challenge but it was given to me.

    Basically Bond, Spine Chill, Self-Care, Dark Sense with a top tool box with top add-ons.

    Hopefully get no Ruin or an early cleanse. And a weak/campy killer.

    I did the challenge as a solo survivor and I was rank 1. Perks I used: Dark Sense, Better Together, Bond, and Prove Thyself. You can also use Kindred instead of better together.

    That challenge is a pain, because if something goes wrong, like the others doing 2 gens without you or the killer finding you as you are fixing the 4th gen, you have to start all over again. In my case, after trying for a long time, I got a killer who wanted to farm, so I got the challenge done, otherwise, it has a lot of luck involved and you need to focus on just fixing and not helping others heal or even save them to not waste time.

    Are you aware that you don't need to complete 4 generators yourself, you just need to be on the generator when it gets completed?

    Just ask in chat. Eventually there will people that help ypu if you ask for the challenge. They should just 99 the gens so you can complete them (you know that you just need to complete, not 400% gen progress, right?)

    I would bring Prove Thyself and Better Together with Bond and Dark Senses, so they can find you and you can find them. The first two perks will help in finding a team that is willing to help ypu if you have to play solo

    Figures when I finally get frustrated enough to post on the forums I get a killer who just wants to farm and I get the challenge done. Though honestly I don't think I would have had it not been for a farming killer. Still think it should be nerfed down to 3 but meh, got it done now.

    You need some luck, as many situations in this game. Use bond and prove thyself, then glue yourself to another survivor whom you see going for gens. That's one fewer generator that might get completed without you on it. If the killer is approaching, bail early unless you can complete the gen. You are the gen jockey for this one, not the looper. I would also consider using a shroud of union, just to get off to a good start.

    Took me quite a while to get this challenge, and I really only got it because my teammates and the killer were potatoes lol. It's definitely the most difficult survivor challenge in tome 4.

  • mistar_z

    I got it on my second try by simply asking the people i got matched with to leave the gens on 99%.

    the killer being being potato helped so much too.

    I would’ve gotten it on my first try but the killer camped me after I was hooked and didn’t get a chance to pop that last gen 😪 in any case, all you need to do is make sure you’re on a gen when it’s 99 percent. You don’t need to do it from start to finish in order to complete the challenge!

    i got a question: do I have to finish repairing the generator WHILE dark sense is active?

  • VonCrow
    VonCrow Member Posts: 389

    No, just having the perk itself will do the job.

    I did this challenge in my first attempt after realising that in some games I did the 4 repair without having the challenge active, so I just tried with a gen-finder build.

  • N_reaper28

    good, but I STILL hate the challenge! I literally helped three people finish repairing THREE generators (i say three because that's back in the FIRST tome for crying out loud!) and it didn't count! like from ONE to three pistons pumping on them and NOTHING!
