Clem2-TheClemening Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) "Complete an extermination mission with level 30 or higher enemies without being detected alone." There are only 4 relevant exterminate missions for this. Infested and corrupted are hard to stealth against, which leaves the corpus and grineer missions. Corpus Ospreys and Grineer rollers can't be stealth finished, but ospreys are more common than rollers, which means the best choice for this challenge is Adaro, Sedna. I.E., we have to do the focus grind mission. I think we all know this mission is really boring. Repeated nerfs to stealth in order to counter stealth farming have made stealth so unreliable that cheese is the only option to get through the mission undetected. This means 15 minutes of sleeping 130 enemies and killing them one by one. Can this challenge please be replaced? I think completing a spy mission instead would be much better. Spy is made with stealth in mind, and you don't have to kill enemies to finish the objectives, making it much faster. Admittedly, spy missions can still be cheesed, but so can literally every other riven challenge.

AperoBeltaTwo Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Imho, everything about rivens is slow and boring. But that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheePrime Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) *shrug* it IS supposed to be a challenge. Also they're all pretty much slow and boring. Edited January 6, 2018 by maj.death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sablesword Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 The challenge on that riven basically means "don't get seen." Grab some invisible frame and a polearm. Be an invisible blender. There's no requirement to stealth attack them one by one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diarmut Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yeah, like Sablesword said, this mission only requires for you not to be seen, which means you can grab a stealth frame and go crazy with melee weapons or a silenced weapon, I did this challenge with my Loki Prime augmented with his silence mod for his 2, and my Dex Sybaris.

Guest Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Loki + Atterax in Adaro, Sedna, should get that done in less than 4 min. You don't need to use finishers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarCommanderVong Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 You can stealth kill rollers and ospreys, just gotta take them down in one hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnarok160 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 i think rivens have kinda been left behind, tbh i think the stealth and the head shots riven are the most annoying. glad we have harrow for that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)CannyJack Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Note that only you need to be undetected. If you have the riven and stay at spawn, your teammates can just blitz the mission. I did this a couple weeks ago with some friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)El_Senior_Fats Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I think you are confusing riven challanges. This only requires you to finish an exterminate mission undetected. With the exception of the infested (for some reason the mission always fails as soon as I get a kill) any other over level 30, I normally do Adaro with Ivara (yes slow) but at the same time I do scans to level up cephalon simaris. Yes its slow if you use Ivara but if you want you can use loki and fly through the mission. I have seen worse challenges tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I know everyone wants it fast and easy, preferably challenges suited for Ember's World on Fire, if anything. Loki and Ivara can both complete that challenge - at a slower pace than burning everything to the ground, ye - without much effort and on the orokin tileset too.

I seem to recall that like the Orokin corrupted, once one Infested is killed, they all go on alert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
