Defeat commanders Weekly challenge

[[UNQL]Tango]

There is a weekly challenge now to kill 10 commanders with Sniper Rifles.

Who are the commanders? I thought they were the guys with a Yellow name.

In the Agna Desert, Rock Cave Base, there is such a guy, I killed him with my Forest Gaze. It didn't count. I also did an Outpost, killed the boss with the Sniper Rifle, nothing again.

So who are the commanders?

Commanders are who show up when you take out reactors. They could also be refering to the ones with yellow health bars in missions

Those annoying a-holes at the reactors, you need to kill for the orb, so you can get RNG disppointed by not getting the stuff you want from AMPs.
I guess is the best to go fight the one on Kingstone normal, for easy kill.

Probably Greg and other big guys at the end of dungeons.

Many are easy, no second stage. Sharen can 1-2 hit take out all the ones that don't have a second stage.

Thanks for the answers. I realized that this one is somewhat bugged. I don't actually have to kill the enemy with Sniper Rifle, it is enough if I have it equipped as the active weapon. My Bunny just obliterates the boss with her electric power, not doing a single weapon shot and still getting the kill update.

Well, 2 weeks ago the Thunder Cage was bugged, now this.

Not bugged. Skill power kills count to the equiped weapon as well. Makes for lvling up weapon xp faster on like high-impact weapons.

commanders are the ones with a second stage

I am basically doing this one with multiple private shelter infiltrations in normal. The benefit of doing shelter is that the boss sends a commander before the final encounter with second stage sphere mechanic etc. And yes, killing this guy will count towards the challenge.

Just do him, reach the end boss who is also a commander and oneshot him (any decent sniper will destroy these guys in normal). Rinse and repeat, plus you also get an AA amorph mat if you are chasing the latest descendant releases

[Inquisitor Sleep]

Any outpost boss with 2 stages works. (Big HP bar and balls or reinvestment squad that grants them immunity, NOT the gold HP bar - that just Elites)

[DamagePlanX]

Do the "Ruins Underground Entrance" in Vespers > Ruins. You can use skills to kill the boss at the end (he gives you credit) just make sure you're holding a sniper rifle.

Commanders are enemies whos healthbar shows up in the top middle of the screen.
Generally any enemy with multiple HP bars and immunity phases between them.

[Beer Belly Boomer]

Commanders. Big red bar. Usually have more than one red bar. Not all void reactos deploy commanders. Some deploy yellow bars.

Yellow bars are elites. Some void reactors deploy 2 and up to 4 elites.

With the latest changes you can farm them as much as you want if you do not open the sphere. If you do not interact with it you wont lose the activation shatds of the void reactor.

Guys, this is a more than a month old.
