Lua challenges

[(XBOX)DAI KYORAKU]

I was wondering if lua challenge rooms spawn every single mission? I spent ages looking for one but never did

[szabika200204]

I'm not sure whether they spawn every mission or not but I've seen one in most of my missions on Lua. I think they are pretty common. I recommend just going on an exterminate mission(plato) and rush through the map and eventually you'll find one

Lua missions can spawn from 0 to 3 challenge rooms.

I don't know how long "ages" is, but maybe you don't know how challenge rooms look like and how to start the challenges. Consider checking some youtube guides.

dont do exterminate, do capture.

And some lua challenges are more rare. Lua Speed challenge for Speed Drift for example. But most of them are quite common. Its really impossible to go like 2 missions without seeing some of them.

I know what they look like so idk maybe I’m just running past them?

For "ages"? Unlikely...

Its very rare to get zero.   The crossfire and capture nodes almost always have some..

Lua tileset is very massive and has alot of branches,   You might not be exploring the places fully.  

Are you going alone?? Because at minimum you should go with 2.

When I started doing them, I thought I knew what they looked like too, but I would still miss them sometimes.  Power (because it is small) and Cunning (because the room is very vertical with the challenge near the top) are easy to run past.  Stealth is a huge room and can be missed because you don't always enter the room at the starting point of that challenge.  Speed is very rare, but hard to miss once you know that the starting point always has a small cube shaped room with a ton of criss-crossing lasers.  Agility, Endurance and Coaction are all pretty obvious if you're aware. 

The music puzzle and the big tree room with the 3 switches also seem to count as puzzles.  If you see one or both of these, you may not get a drift challenge (but you might still, too).

Take your time, explore all the branches, look for the blue banners and you'll begin to recognize them.  Doing the exterminate mission has the benefit of forcing you to move through most of the map, where the capture will take you through the shortest path and not necessarily out into all the branches.

Thanks I’ve got a good idea of the rooms. I have 2/7, I have speed, and cunning Drift. Just need to keep an eye out

If you're playing capture, exterminate or mobile defense (and maybe a few other mission types too), don't bother checking each branch. They are ALWAYS dead ends.

Just follow the objective/extraction marker and you will find every challenge room after a number of runs.

This is an excellent idea. 

While we are talking about the chat area, would it be possible to make it detachable from the game screen.

For gamer's who have multiple monitors, to have a full screen chat area separated from the game screen.

 

Thanks for the help
