Enforcer judgement

[The Hash Slinging Slasher]

Enforcer judgement might be one of the worst things to ever be put into this world. I love this game but I cannot keep dying over and over on 20 minute runs because my health goes from 100% to 0 in two seconds. I'm getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ r6 death times here, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong besides noticing that some attacks just don't get blocked by the shield? and also the arena at the end can be covered in lazers in such a way that the only option you have is die. I want to 100% this game but I have no clue how I'm supposed to do this challenge. It's driving me crazy and I just am so confused as to why only original skills are allowed for the judgement challenge in the first place.

The only thing I can hope for is like some sort of checkpoint system? or at least the ability to change skills from the base ones. It is honestly miserable to play as enforcer and I just need some guidance or a cheese at this point

EDIT: I beat it but I died on providence about 4 different times and I wanted to quit each time. Shout out to everyone for the advice, the best advice I got was taking hardlight afterburner to stunlock problematic elites and also when stopwatch isn’t up during providence fight don’t bother hunkering down because being mispositioned for just 5 seconds is enough to end your run. You need to be moving basically. Anyways I’m not looking forward to mercenary but I’m sure that I’ll enjoy it more than this guy, enforcer mains are made of something that I'm not clearly so good luck!

don't use the shield to block attacks. get the afterburner and spam protect & serve, since it stunlocks enemies, even elites

There is a permanent checkpoint 5 stages in, but since it skips 5 stages overall, you end up with less items. Probably not recommended unless you're speedrunning, since the stopwatch is in the first set of 5 stages and that can help clear tougher stages with ease

If you have no troubles reaching last stage then you should be fine with Providence?
Just take some Guardian's Hearts to take into account the lasers you have to walk through some times and don't be too greedy with the shield stance.

That's what I did personally along with taking all the energy cells I could see.

If you can reach Providence, you can cheese the win if you have stopwatch, 3 hopoo feathers, and bustling fungus (works on any survivor)

Triple jump up to the right side of the map and nothing will be able to hurt you except Provi's magic circles and the temple guard shots. Just dodge attacks until the stopwatch is up (every 30 seconds if you have both rapid mitosis) and you can do all your healing and attacking while time is stopped. You can even get 1 tick of healing between every temple guard volley if you time it right.

Don't turtle with Enforcer. Stay in Protect and Serve briefly, and get out of it when in danger. There are some enemies you just can't block, or is unsafe to block. Biggest issue Enforcer has is missile elites, blighted elites, and flying enemies. Imp Overlord, Gilded Worms, and Wandering Vagrant are also a little sketchy.

I can't even figure out how to beat stage 2. There's no good way to deal with the magma wurm before more ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ missile lemurians show up.

I managed to beat it and I’m not gonna sugar coat it, it’s been the hardest challenge I’ve done so far. For that specifically I’d recommend if you can’t kill those lizards in time, bait them to the top platform and then shield bash them off. You can do the same thing on stage one but it’s still a ridiculously difficult challenge. Good luck!

Yeah, I got it eventually. It was pain.

Sorry for Necro-posting but yeah, the Enforcer judgement challenge is basically a defense focus classed being forced to play offensively. Slow, defense focused classes are not the best at offense so the Enforcer is way out of his element in the Judgement challenge.

Enforcer has more of a temporary advantage state (like Loader, Bandit, and Artificer) than anything defensive. Yeah, Protect and Serve could be used indefinitely, but as soon as a bad enemy spawns, you get overwhelmed by being underpowered, or something spawns behind you what are you going to do? Sometimes you just have to fight without Protect and Serve, or run away.
