Rank 4 Test Bug

Recommended Posts

Just attempted the mission for the fourth time about an half hour ago. DE really needs to know about this so they can fix it. Only one or two infested spawn and when they die nothing happens. I unequipped my sentinel for one try and didn't even kill the one infested that came that time. I ran away from it until the timer ran out and still nothing happened.

I want to just respond to this, I did finally passed my rank 4 mastery test. I had my glaive equipped and accidently pressed E once, but didn't kill any infected with it so I do believe that as long as you don't use your melee weapon at all then you will pass.

Considering Rank 4 is where you can actually make use of the time-decaying resource, IGNORING this for more than a week is exactly the kind of black eye I've come to expect DE to give themselves.

It boggles my mind sometimes that people actually give you real money for this, guys.

Hey, just passed the mission posting back with how I did it.

 

I didn't attack anything. Stood still and let them kill me. Let timer tick down. I used a revive around 20s remaining and then used Invisibility on my Loki frame.

 

This can be done with Valkyr or Trinity ults for the duration of invulnerability or Ashe invis or possibly Shade Sentinel's Cloak.

 

In theory, if you time it right, anyone can Revive just before time runs out and squeak by. Remember, Revive has a short cast time so I wouldn't wait later than 5s remaining.

 

 

This worked for me. I didn't touch a single button, I just let the mobs kill me and used revive when there was 5 seconds left on the timer. It worked.

 

Try TheDonPerignon's method if you want to pass the rank 4 test and tell us if it worked for you too.

 

Simply evading the mobs and not attacking them is NOT guaranteed to work (tried it twice).

I've done it 6 times and my most recent one only 5 minutes ago I actually managed to get an onslaught of enemies untill about 20 seconds left. I thought " Hey they fixed it!" but no the timer ran out and nothing just me in a sea of orange with my lonely pillars.

 

Edit: I'll try DonPeringnon's Method tomorrow and post my results.

HOLY CRAP! My fourth attempt finally worked! I was using my Excalibur. The first thing I did was unequip my sentinel. Then when I started the test about 5 or 6 infested came. I decided to run train around them without even harming them in any way. I didn't go past the pillars. I simply ran in a circle until the timer went out and Lotus congratulated me on passing the test. A lot of theories involve not meleeing because Melee 2.0 breaks the test or something of that nature. And this is the first try that I didn't use my melee weapon so maybe that is it. So my theory is this

 

1- DO NOT bring your sentinel into battle. 

2- DO NOT use your melee weapon at all. Don't even equip it. Just equipping messed up one of my tests. 

3- Don't use any weapon at all. (This is the first test where I didn't harm a single enemy and I passed. Coincidence? I think not.)

4- It's okay to move apparently. (This maybe different for some, but I found that just running in a circle without passing the pillars works. Some people say that you shouldn't move at all and just use your revives. Who am I to say if that works?)

5- I didn't jump at all. That's probably an unnecessary detail. Just putting it out there, you never know.

6- Getting hurt is fine. 

 

Now I may be wrong on some things but this is what worked for me. If you're reading this, Good luck on your next test! Hopefully DE will realize how large this discussion is getting and do something about it.

I've also been experiencing this bug. The first time, I was playing as my Rhino and as such, my first instinct is to activate Iron Skin and kill everything with my melee. So I did just that and when the timer ran out, nothing happened. No enemies spawned past the first 5-6, by the way. After about a minute or so running around waiting for something to happen, I realized this was a bug and aborted the mission. I was irritated by the 24 hr cooldown on the test, but I coped and waited. The second attempt, I tried the "no attacking" strategy I had heard about. Still failed. My Wyrm sentinel didn't do anything, by the way. No shooting, no Crown Dispersion, nothing. Not sure if that's another bug, or an intentional move on DE's part. Now I have to wait another day to do this again and it really infuriates me.

I can't even start my Rank Up mission.. I've tried 5 times now, 5 fking days without success, It just doesnt even load the mission, my friend had the same problem, then his loaded but failed even tho i surrived it... Now i'm starting to get pissed, and about to ragequit this game, I wouldnt really care if they had some kind of bug fix coming out soon, or even just tell us they're working on it, but getting no response or anything from them is bullS#&$, I've sent 4 bug reports and got response on NONE of them..

This method work for me.  For those who still can't get pass this rank try this method. If you read through all the above post. several people try and all clear with this method

- my 1st/2nd try use melee  = bugged no spawn after a while

- 3rd tryuse only primary = doesn't work either

- 4th try using the method mention by DonPerigon = works (did not equip sentinel, so i kill nothing)

Same problem here. First time (yesterday) I had enemies coming at me for 1:10 min and they stopped for the last 20 seconds. The timer ran out and it glitched.
2nd try (just now) i melee'd the first enemy and it glitched, enemies stopped spawning. (i've even recorded it this time  http://youtu.be/2llMsEuytFg)
For something like a challange that you can only take every 24hr and it's very essential for your progress, it should be fixed soon, or at least compensate us in a way.
If they could just let us try it again sooner (instead of a whole day) we can try the methods mentioned on Steam's forums, such as "avoid everything for 1:30 min until you get mission complete".

 

 Ure right, its pretty anoying have all your gear in the foundry and culndt even craft it cuz the rank test is bugged... They shuld look at this as a priority to fix...
