Challenges - Suggestion and Update Thread

[ImAboveAverage]

Is there a reason we have no checkpoints as an option? 1 life just seems to have all the pros of it but none of the cons

Could someone explain specifically the difference, maybe I am being square brain but I don’t see it

On a no checkpoint challenge, when you die you get sent back to the start of the map and your progress is reset. On a 1 life challenge, when you die you lose the challenge but can still continue doing the map. It's useful if you'd for example want to speedrun heartless in its no deaths challenge, because if you die once on cp8-9 you would still want to finish the run rather than be sent back to the beginning. (since knocking down a hard life challenge AND a hard speedrun at the same time is very beneficial, also just useful if you want to practice the part you failed in preparation for your next attempt)

Also since ragnarok doesn't have insane kill potential, I'll suggest a hard challenge for it


Name of Challenge: Dragonslayers

Challenge Code: dragonslayers

Suggested Challenge Points: 750

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Ragnarok

Modifiers: Soul link, 1 life


If deemed too difficult, the life amount could be increased. However, the kill potential is essentially in cp5-6 and nowhere else, so it should be fine.

 

[rickyboy320]

I agree that life-challenge: 1 should be preferred over no-checkpoints.

There is, however, still a use case in more complex challenges like heroic, odyssey, and the mimics, which don't want you to lose the challenge upon death, but don't want you to set any arbitrary checkpoint either.

 

[TunaSurprise]

Name of Challenge: Love Island (name creds to Buckley)
Challenge Code: island
Suggested Challenge Points: 175
Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Survivor
Modifiers: Soul Link

Not completely set on the points, I figured 175 would be good compared to Outlandish Love (150) and Lost Souls (200), since I would say that the difficulty of Survivor is between these two maps as well as the death potential.

 

[Chicken Master]

Name of Challenge: Got to go fast!
Challenge Code: gofast
Suggested Points: 50
Maps in the Challenge, in order: Supersonic, Palmtree Panic - Bad Future, Retro Runner Sonic
Modifiers: 1 Life

Points are a guess of how many points it would give, it may have to go down depending on if it is too high. These 3 maps have very little death potential so the one life is just if you fall in the water in RRS or fall into the lava in Palmtree Panic.

 

[KittyCatElite]

Name of Challenge: Zero Gravity

Challenge Code: zero

Suggested Challenge Points: 750-1000? really hard challenge

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Astral Upsurge

Modifiers: 1 life challenge



Name of Challenge: Slowly falling in love

Challenge Code: slowfalling

Suggested Challenge Points: 300-400? only a red map but almost everything is unfailsafed

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Astral Upsurge

Modifiers: Soul link

 

[KittyCatElite]

Name of Challenge: No room for error

Challenge Code: noroomforerror

Suggested Challenge Points: 1000

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Bookworm, Challenger Deep, Cranium, Depths, High-Tech Dig, Invasion, Cosmic Drop, Glimmer, Night Terrors, Shapes!, The 256 Drop, The Rabbit Hole, Crayons, Colorfall, Dropping 2, Nightmare, The Pit, Dimensions

Modifiers: 10 life challenge


Supposed to be a very hard dropper challenge including every "pure" dropper with very little lives, anything less than 10 would probably make this way harder than acceptable. Also it's essentially hexa in a nutshell.

 

[Bahnarli]

Name of Challenge: The Badder Lands

Challenge Code: badderlands

Suggested Challenge Points: 1000

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Happy Thoughts, Sheol, Halcyon, Oculus, Magisterium: Ash, Cataclysm, Lost Soul, Thrice, Haydon Falls, Ragnarok

Modifiers: 50 life challenge

This may seem like few lives, but note that badlands 1 had hea carrying most of the weight, and everyone I knew who beat hea in that challenge also eventually beat the challenge, so I think 50 is much more interesting for the people who would try this challenge. Essentially, anyone who would seriously try this challenge is good enough that more than 50 just makes the lives uninteresting. I don't intend on beating this, but for you 3 crazy people who want this, I think it should exist.

[KittyCatElite]

Name of Challenge: Heavenly Sprinters

Challenge Code: heavenly

Suggested Challenge Points: 500

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Sky Runner 2

Modifiers: Soul Link

 

[BTJRedwing]

Leaving this as a suggestion for now.

Name of Challenge: Glass Bones and Paper Skin

Challenge Code: glassbones

Suggested Challenge Points: 45 (?)

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Ant Hill -> Heavenly Ascent -> Inferno -> Ethereal -> Sandcastles

Modifiers: No Damage

- -

This challenge is meant to use the No Damage modifier in a way that requires some creative maneuvering or extra care to keep yourself alive. Intentionally chose all white maps for this one. Not the most familiar with challenge point value, this requires a tough jump or two but is generally pretty short.

 

[MarvelFamily]

Name of Challenge: Triple A

Challenge Code: AAA

Suggested Challenge Points: 75

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Abode, Air Haven, Atonement

Modifiers: 1 Life

 

[ImAboveAverage]

Name of Challenge: Subzero

Challenge Code: Sub

Suggested Challenge Points: 195

Maps in the Challenge: Ice Age

Modifiers: 1 Life





Name of Challenge: Devils Vortex

Challenge Code: Devils

Suggested Challenge Points: 235

Maps in Challenge: Crimson Planet

Modifiers: 1 Life

 

[Solawr]

Name of Challenge: Geometrical Dominator

Challenge Code: CET

Suggested Challenge Points: 95-120 (somewhere in that range, dunno balanced challenge points this is just what I got from looking at challenges)

Maps in the Challenge, sequentially: Clutterfunk -> Electrodynamix -> Theory of Everything

Modifiers: None

 

[viceinc]

Name Of Challenge: Refined Skills
Challenge Code: Refined
Suggested Challenge Points: 600
Map in Challenge: The Refinery
Modifiers: 15 lives
Map is built similar to a rank up so it would be fun to do it in a minimal amount of lives
15 seems like a fine number to get past the dropper

 

[Dumbmutt]

Name of Challenge: Enlightenment

Challenge Code: ENL

Suggested Points: 65

Maps in Challenge: Zen, Koi, Yokai

Modifiers: none

It'd have to be a greenies+ challenge like legacyhexa since it has mimics and old agni. Some mimics have gameplay differences between mimic and FFA, which is why I didn't change any of them to their FFA counterparts. Since some mimics are forced to exist, I suppose there's no harm in keeping the rest to replicate the original challenge as well as possible.
