Muspelheim "challenges"... what were they thinking?

[Baklavah]

"Don't get hit" challenges are the dumbest thing ever, right beside "timers".

I get it. "Challenge the players". Honestly, if I could opt out of doing these challenges, I would. I've been trying to get the Muspelheim epic enchantment, and can't do so without suffering the "kill this many things without getting touched" challenge. First of all, calling it "Impossible Trial VI" is right, because Wulvers and Revenants are 100% BS. They are the most frustrating things I've ever encountered.

You dodged? HAH! Tracking shoulder tackle. Oh btw, you failed to kill at least 20 dudes, so have fun NOT getting the resources you need! kthnxbai!

UGH!

Okay... I just needed to rant... I hate this nonsense... Even the Valks are more fair than this garbage. -_-

You're complaining on Discussions because you're not good enough to finish them? I only failed 1 of the challenges and that's the 'don't get hit' challenge in the normal run. The next more difficult run I failed twice with the 'don't get hit' challenge with the soul eater. Didn't even break a sweat at the Valkyrie. Maybe just, I don't know... Get better first before complaining that dev ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up.

lol... okay there. Just because "some" people can complete a majorly sadistic challenge doesn't mean it's "good game design". If a challenge required you to stick your junk in a paper shredder to get a gold star, would you do it? Not unless you were a complete mental case, I'd wager.

Either way, I'm done with it. Muspelheim is not what I'd call "fun". Everything else felt fair and challenging enough. But THAT? No. Not even remotely close to being fun or fair. Your opinion is noted, however wrong it may be. I'm going to go back to actually enjoying the game now.

Edit: I got my Eye of Power. Never doing this again as long as I can help it.

Hes complaining that they are absolutely not fun to do and can be very frustrating.
And pretty sure he is complaining about the 'impossible' set that you are suppose to repeatedly farm for the materials.

Its a boring half hearted design overall and it is really, every time you see 'challenges' that are thrown in like these are just not fun for a majority of the playerbase as we've seen with actual statistics involved in other games that have the same thing. When its implemented like Horizon Zero Dawn and its Hunter challenges, they aren't bad, but when they are these small arenas of just do this or that it gets involving 'dont get hit' 'kill them in this one spot' 'do it in this amount of time' or other generic things its just.... very dull and when you combine it with having to do it multiple times it just inst fun.

The valkyries are fun, very annoying and unfair at times but fun.
The fog place, despite it being a grind and at times a slog fest, is fun.
The fire mountain... its not.

This.

OK so to get through this I had Artreus equip legendary fighter tunic and shock arrows. I tried to avoid all contact and stood in the corner furthest away from the entrance tunnels and the entrance gate (so if you are looking at the drop off edge to the right) where I could see everyone coming in. Artreus spammed arrows and I threw my axe and I finally got it. Good luck, this one is really really annoying and I didn't get it untill I realised where I had to stand to see all the enemies coming in.
