Rank Mastery 5 test is almost impossible now

[Moujine]

I am trying for 6 days to pass rank mastery 5 but its really hard and the reason is these $&*&*#(%& Grineer consoles that they put, which have 10 bells to unlock. The weird thing is that I saw youtube videos of this specific test and NONE of them had Grinner consoles, only Corpus and less. Why is it so hard now, i am really bad at the Grinner ones i can't do them no matter how much i try and i dont want to give my account to other person to do it for me

Practice makes perfect? You can practice the mastery test near simaris. Keep practicing and you'll eventually pass it.

Have you tried with the Intruder mod?

i still cant do the grinner ones because the arrow doesnt work correctly for some reason, it doesnt activate when i click it but 0,5-1 second later

use ciphers

Sounds like you have lag, friend.

Just keep practicing in ol' boy Simaris's place, you'll eventually get the rhythm for it.

if lags and hangs are the cause of the delay no amount of practice will make up for it trust me i know, ciphers are your best bet.

i dont lagg i just cant do the grineer consoles because they are retarted i dont have any problems with the corpus. Are ciphers allowed in the test?

[DeMeritus]

Turn off all the fancy bells and whistles in thour graphics settings, adn turn your resolution way, way down for the test.

[SilvaDreams]

Never had an issue doing the test, hell the grinder ones are the easiest as they have no timer.

That's not how it is supposed to work. Sounds a bit like you might have performance issues. What's your FPS? Try reducing the graphic details a bit. I don't think, that your internet connection might be the problem here, but it won't hurt to check your ping, too.

[Update]

Intruder MOD sir. xD
(Yeah i know the feel, i hate greener hacks too)

what graphics card are you using? if you're using an Nvidia, mess about in the Nvidia control panel on pre-rendered frames. it might be able to eliminate lag for you.

They were when I did it but that was so long ago that Grineer hacks didn't exist.  (Which is why the video you saw didn't have any.)

[(PSN)robotwars7]

yeah, hacking is pretty annoying. I'm worse with Corpus Hacks because it's Geometry, and it hurts my simple caveman-brain.

funnily enough I'm currently stuck on my test for MR19, perhaps the most bullsquirt Stealth Section I've encountered in a game since AC. god I hate Stealth.

It's not my pc or my internet its the stupid grineer consoles that i cant do them, Can anyone confirm if Ciphers are allowed on the test or not? i dont want to waste credits for no reason

It's actually really easy if you bring the glaive with you.

Do you use Vsync? If you do, don't.

[BlazerEraser]

Eh?  Hacking is the easiest bit in this game.

[blazinvire]

Can confirm ciphers work, though it's a good idea to get good at hacking since there are a few situations ciphers aren't enabled

i think you will definitely find a use for ciphers if u can't hack grineer consoles even if they aren't allowed in the test. however this delay is not normal you should be able to do them eventually.  

[Salenstormwing]

Well, the game was being DDOS'd over this weekend, so there's some of your lag there. But yeah, Intruder and/or Ciphers are your friends.

[asop73]

I used ciphers. I took the test a few weeks ago.

[trieuazn0]

i know i should not be encouraging such behavior, but you can do anything to pass these Mastery test, hell, there is one test i remember doing with the Disappearing platforms, you can use a restore pad to make an invisable floor for yourelf to stand on and just kill everythign

[TheGreatBB]

Ciphers might not be a good idea to rely on. Grineer are the easiest as it is timing based. I had lag on a laptop. The trick is to hit the switch at two before the one you want.
