Storm is the perfect example of a terrible mission

[Shy]

The mission gives you 2 choices:

Keep all your fancy armour you spent hours getting, and proceed to suffer through a mile of stealth through a soldier infested forest.

or

Drop all you hard earned gear, and suffer slightly faster through a soldier infested forest.

What an absolutely garbage mission. What the ♥♥♥♥ where they thinking?

You don't have to go through torture it doens't change anything except a couple of minor dialogues, the mission itself alswo being overweight is just going from a bush to another, no big deal

[SHINRA-CORP]

I dont wear armour in this game so I didnt have any issues

[Snootch]

What are you even on about? You don't have to drop anything? Are you just mass looting everyone you kill and are now overburdened to the point that you can't move properly or something? Well duh, don't do that. You don't have to hoard every piece of loot you come across, holy cow dude have a little restraint.

[MrMinMax]

Just drop everything. 2nd map is full of loot. you will get to the point where you only pick up money from your kills.

Literally only have my armour and weapons on me, that's 1 set of knights armour, my main weapon and radzigs sword.

Torture debuff decreases strength significantly, thus , less carry weight. I don't particularly want to spend the next 2-3 hours slowly sneaking through a forest.

2-3 hours is far exxagerated, 30 min by being cautious max.

Have you just been rushing the main story and not doing anything else to train up your skills? Heck even walking around overburdened just for fun will strength train you.

If you are only wearing what you are kitted with, then you must have a ton of other things keeping you overburdened. You have a personal chest at Inns and some other locations to dump a lot of things you don't need to carry around.

Even with the torture debuff you shouldn't be that burdened. Stop being a loot goblin.

What pissed me off about this mission is if you are smart and go north instead to where they are not looking for you then slowly work around, they just put up invisible walls so you can't do it.

[Humpenstilzchen]

Ah yes just like that hunter meme when he misses it must have been the rifle that is bad..

But jokes aside, that quest is honestly pretty awesome. I enjoyed it a lot. Don´t be so easily frustrated, it´s really not that bad.

Also don´t blame the game for running around overencumbered. There is a reason why the game provides you personal chests in various locations. Use them.

I just was overecumbered the whole time, and you can basically walk straight forward all the way to the end...

I found that mission to be a real low point. I even attempted to quickly kill/knock out a few guards and was punished hard for it.

I killed them all and hid the bodies in the jail.

[BuLLeTINuRhEaD]

the mission was so easy lol... wtf are you guys talking about

[BretonFou35]

I literally killed everyone patrolling the forest

[Supersomething]

I am not sure how people keep having issues with this mission. I had plate armor on. Just stayed away from torches, moved slow and crouched from bush to bush. I occasionally pulled some people but was able to easily kill them. Most I fought was like three at a time, just kept circle strafing and feint striking until they were dead and moved on with the mission.
