It was trivially, trivially easy. Just like the first time I did it, I ran around in a circle and just beamed the orb. The only thinking you need to do is to pick up energy refills as they spawn and to keep toggling your sprint on. I had to void dash a single time when I messed up my pathing but that was the only complication at all. I maintain that this is one of the easiest MR tests of them all, I really don't understand everybody's problem with it. Maybe it's more difficult with a controller? Given the slow pace of the mission I wouldn't think so but I'm a PC/keyboard & mouse player so I wouldn't know. PS: I saw some people mention in this thread that you could slide in there. Is there some trick to that? Because I tried and there was no sliding for that test. Edited December 10, 2017 by Snib Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people replying did it before the update that's why they keep saying slide or shoot orb from outside the circle. I'll keep trying though.

You mean from behind the walls where the energy pickups spawn? What's the problem with that? I had no problem shooting the orb from there earlier.

If you did the test before eidolon update then it's not the same anymore. You can't shoot the orb from outside the ring anymore, damage dealt was reduced from 750 to 600 (how is this fair) the orb regenerates back every time you run to collect energy never mind your slow and squidgy operator is being chased the whole time. Oh and did i mention the timer. If you don't believe me have a go at it again and see for yourself. Yeah, I am kind of wondering if it’s the PS4 control that’s giving you difficulty. I did my test after PoE because I remember I was telling someone that maybe the Mote Amp would make things easier, but, nope, I found out during the practice that you can’t use the amp. Anyway, I completely understand the frustration you have with the test and good luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it works on PC, that sounds like a bug on PS4. And I can see how this challenge would be very much more difficult on PS4 then, it's finally starting to make sense.

Right now it's just not possible for me to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the test trivially easy, but if I were presented with a shooter game and a controller I'd try biting a chunk out of the controller and throw it out the window as soon as I've established that it's not edible.

(PSN)fullblast35 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 you dont need too much skills to beat it, just another way to see a strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justice_Ember Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 The MR23 test was entertaining tbh, it made me use a different frame at least, which is nice. And yeah, the point of a test is to challenge you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelshark Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 (edited) It can't be that hard. I have put in ZERO investment into my operator and it was still super easy. All I did was just run in a large circle picking up the energy orbs as I went around shooting the orb. Just practice it a couple times and you should be good. Also I use a controller for WF, albeit a Xbox controller, but a controller none the less. Edited December 12, 2017 by nickelshark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, i have invested heavily on the operator but the test is standard for everyone whether you grind to improve the operator or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
