Challenges in Ultimate Warrior Difficulty. Let's not do that.

Can we start a petition or something to beg Koei-Tecmo to make these available for Hero mode? I can feel the aneurysm in my brain getting worse each time I try and attempt one of these. It's too much. I'd feel less stressed trying to climb the ranks in Tekken 8.

Still yet to find any I couldn't beat in a couple tries aside from dueling Lu Bu with no healing. Most I beat pretty easily on first try and most of the rest I beat on second try since you know what to expect. Once you've got a grade 8 weapon it's really not that bad. The only one that felt fairly frustrating was the one where you have to defend a castle and keep it's gates each above 60%. Beating that was a puzzle. I'm probably through like 1/4th of the total challenges. Snagged everything in shu route that was either guards, a luan weapon, red hare, or battle arts.

Went straight into a from the start NG+ after getting Red Hare and the one that gave me the hardest time so far was Battle of Wan Castle in Chapter 1. Getting that damn ram to the gate within 5 minutes was painful. There was one run where it was on time to open the door and it just stopped and waited until it was out of time without any enemy remotely near it. Took me nearly as long as the Red Hare fight. A Grade 8 probably would've helped. And the Luan Sword is relatively easy to get.

Some action seem to trigger only when you don't look at them. So you need to look at an other direction for it to trigger faster. Exemple when you ram the gate against Yuan Shu the ram block the gate. Turn around and suddenly by the power of magic some space appeared.
Same goes for the ladder at Wan castle . Turn around and suddenly those guys are way faster.

Came across the 10 bases mission and it wasn't too bad. Did take 3 attempts though. The successful attempt seems reliable. Take all 4 bases along the west side, then go to the central base. There you have to kill like 3 officers that keep piling in. After that go west and defeat zhang jiao with halberd musou rage. Use a stamina potion if thats not enough. An officer should be moving to take the southwest base but xiahou dun should take the 10th base while Lu Bu is giving his speech about letting dian wei go. Might as well head southwest to ensure that base doesn't get taken by the weak officer sent there.

Oh, I also used the accessory that makes taking bases faster. Definite time saver.

It's this kind of nonsense that doesn't belong in games. This needs to be patched out, posthaste.

The challanges seem fair enough, been playing till act 4 and the first few were hard at lvl 50 but now at 64 with a soul crusher they all seem beatable

Finished up the last challenges today. By far the hardest one IMO is the wu chibi. Wei and shu chibi are fairly easy as long as you can prevent the fire attack on wei side.

The one people mentioned with the ram I got first try but I was level 101 and just obliterated everything. Don't think I even played it particularly well. The 10 bases did require finding a strat but it wasn't too bad. You could probably also beat just lu bu and zhang liao and have enough time. Stopping guan yu from returning to the castle was easy. Just ran straight to him and blitzed him down before his allies even reached cao cao. The one to trigger traps made me feel stupid. It was actually really easy though. After failing it the first time I just never left the center until the ones that chase you appear. Mostly afk for almost 10 minutes but the objective completes itself.
