– Bell Ban

To complete the challenge, you have to shoot/slash all the skaven bells down in the map.

Your bell locations will change depending on the variations.

There are 10 bells you can find in one run.

Finding 10 bells in one variation is enough, you don’t have to collect them again.

IMPORTANT NOTE: At the moment (14.06.2023), this challenge is bugged and CAN’T be completed. I will update this when Fatshark fixes this issue. (Fatshark has acknowledged this bug.)

Here is a video of me literally shooting ALL 14 BELLS on a run. Still doesn’t complete the challenge.

—-> Bell 1 (Top Path)

At the start of the map, you will see one of the two doors open. If you have the top door open, you’re on the top path.

Keep following the path until you enter the room with the descending staircase with a giant hole in the middle. The first bell is on the corner.

—-> Bell 1 (Bottom Path)

Go back to the spot where you descended the stairs to find a big open space with lava below. Instead of turning left, turn right and follow the long path. You will find the fifth bell at the end of it.

(Wooden bridge in the picture for reference)

—-> Bell 10

Make your way to the second floor made out of wooden platforms. The tenth bell is next to the giant sphere on the middle, on the highest wooden platforms.

– Fast Regulations

To complete this challenge, you have to interact with every pressure valve within 8 seconds.

The valves are in 4 spots, and these spots are always the same:

The easiest way to do this challenge is to do it on Recruit difficulty, with a 4 man team.

Each player goes to a valve. When the valve gets marked, the player responsible for the valve interacts with it.

When a player does their valve, they can leave their designated spot to help a teammate, because when you interact with one valve, that same valve won’t be interacted with again.

Simply do this under 8 seconds, and this challenge is very easy.

– Come Prepared

For this challenge, you have to bring 3 barrels to the end event as a team and use them on the final event to blow up the 3 objectives instead of the event spawned barrels.

Strategy:

This challenge is very similar to the “Powder Monkey” challenge in Helmgart category. The only difference is you can do this challenge on every difficulty, instead of Powder Monkey’s Legend and Cataclysm only.

You can find a lot of barrels during the run in the map. Make sure you bring at least 3 of them to the final event.

Keep the barrels you are bringing along safe by fighting in a place away from where you chucked the barrels at.

Recruit is recommended for the lower spawns and weaker enemies. Getting hit by the enemies while carrying a barrel ignites it, so we are trying to keep the barrels safe.

Having 4 people in your team makes it easier to carry the barrels to the end.

Only explosive barrels count, you can’t use fire barrels.

IMPORTANT NOTE: At the moment (14.06.2023), this challenge is bugged. Even if you don’t bring a single barrel and use event barrels for all 3 objectives, everybody EXCEPT the host will get the challenge completed. I will update this if Fatshark fixes it.

– Blessings Of Valaya

To complete this challenge, use the emote wheel to sit in front of the Valaya statue. It will take the challenge a couple of seconds to trigger.

If you see the challenge completed message in the chat, you did it correctly.

In my case, I used the “Sit (Ground)” emote.

Example:

A Grudge Served Cold Challenges:

 

Scratch One From The Book

—-

This challenge is completed when you complete the other map specific challenges under it.

– Difficulty Challenges

Icy Grudge:

Finish the mission on Recruit Difficulty.

Cold Grudge:

Finish the mission on Veteran difficulty.

Biting Grudge:

Finish the mission on Champion difficulty.

Frozen Grudge:

Finish the mission on Legend difficulty.

Glacial Grudge:

Finish the mission on Cataclysm difficulty.

—-

All of these can be completed by finishing the map on Cataclysm once.

You don’t have to do every difficulty separately.

– Dwarfs Eye View

This is a parkour challenge.

The vantage point is in the end event area.

Steps:

Get up to the door that opens to get the bomb vagon down. You will see a stone pillar next to you, you have to parkour around the stone pillar and planks to get up to the top.

Here are some pictures that may help you with the parkour:

When you reach the top, the challenge is completed.

– Chaingang

For this challenge, I highly recommend Recruit difficulty with a 4 man team.

Make sure you have 2 classes with high mobility that can dash/jump/teleport.

You need at least 5 hits to break a chain.

Strategy:

Optimal team comp: Handmaiden + Slayer + 2 random players

One person counts down from 3, and everybody starts attacking the chains at 1.

Handmaiden breaks first chain, dashes into the second chain, breaks it.

Slayer breaks first chain, jumps into the second chain, breaks it.

Player 3 breaks their chain.

Player 4 breaks their chain.

If things go right, you should get it done under 6 seconds, and challenge will be completed.

– Wuthering Heights

To complete this challenge, you have to push 200 enemies off a ledge.

It doesn’t have to be in one run, you can do multiple runs. The progress stacks.

There are ledges all over the map and the enemies you pushed of a cliff stacks up each time you win, so this challenge does eventually get completed by itself or with minimal effort over several runs.

But if you wanna speed things up and complete it in one run, here’s how:

Step 1:

Get a 4 man team. Start a “Send in the next wave!” deed on recruit with the deed trick. Having a Handmaiden on the team makes pushing way easier.
 

Step 2:

Find a good ledging location. Here is the location I used:

 

Step 3:

Push the trash off the ledge until you see the “challenge completed” message in the chat.

Optional: If your teammates also need this challenge, take turns pushing skaven off the ledge until everybody gets it done.

– Tower Guard

To complete this challenge, you need to light up all 4 fires on top of the towers in the Wyr Migdahl event (first event area).

Tower Numbers:

I gave the towers numbers so they are easier to follow.

Follow the instructions and light them up one by one.

 

Tower #1:

Go in and ignite the flame on top.

Tower #2:

Look at the right side of the tower and you will see some crates. Jump on those crates and jump towards the backside of the tower from those crates. The backside of the tower doesn’t have a wall.

When you’re in, pull the lever and go up, ignite the flame.

Pulling the lever opens the doors of #3 and #4.

Tower #3:

Go in and ignite the flame on top.

Tower #4:

Go in and ignite the flame on top.

Khazukan Kazakit-ha! Challenges:

 

Karak Azgaraz Will Answer

—-

This challenge is completed when you complete the other map specific challenges under it.

– Difficulty Challenges

Flint:

Finish the mission on Recruit difficulty.

Spark:

Finish the mission on Veteran difficulty.

Flame:

Finish the mission on Champion difficulty.

Pyre:

Finish the mission on Legend difficulty.

Inferno:

Finish the mission on Cataclysm difficulty.

—-

All of these can be completed by finishing the map on Cataclysm once.

You don’t have to do every difficulty separately.

– Aim For The What!?

After the tower event is complete, instead of taking the long way down, just jump on the hay bale on the ground. You won’t take fall damage and you will complete the challenge.

– Eyes Of The Crowfather

To complete this challenge, you need to shoot 10 crows on the map.

If any player-bot comes close to the birds, they will fly, leaving you unable to complete the challenge.

Take your time. Missing your shots does not make them fly away.

I suggest using a hit-scan weapon or a Waystalker with the Moonfire bow (precise and you can zoom further) for this challenge.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Using a shotgun to kill the crows counts as more than one kill (3-4 kills from one bird for example). With a shotgun, you can complete this challenge killing only the first 2-3 crows.

You can also use a bolt staff – beam staff primary fire on the first crow to complete the challenge instantly (every damage tick will count as a kill).

If Fatshark fixes this i will update it.

Crow #1:

Just outside the spawn, Crow #1 is on the tree stump.

Crow #2:

Just after Crow #1, Crow #2 is on top of the house of the left.

Crow #3 + Crow #4:

A bit further, Crow #3 is next to the second milestone on a skeleton, while Crow #4 is on top of the tree to the right of the second milestone.

Crow #5:

Keep walking forward, drop down, get past the campfire and look behind the big rock in the middle. You will see Crow #5 on a tree stump.

Crow #6:

Just before the dropdown from the broken railing, Crow #6 is on the rope.

Crow #7:

After you go through the doorway to the bridge event, Crow #7 is between some stone tiles on the right side of the house.

Crow #8:

Just after the bridge event, Crow #8 is on top of the lantern on the fence.

Crow #9:

After climbing up the steep hill, you will see a pipe on the right side, Crow #9 is on it.

Crow #10:

Near the broken pipe objective, Crow #10 is on top of a wooden platform-tent.

After you shoot all 10 crows, you will complete the challenge.

– Frozen Footwork

To complete this challenge, you need to press the buttons on the milestones as fast as you can.

There are 7 milestone buttons to press.

Recruit difficulty is highly recommended for this challenge.

Time is more forgiving than you think, so even if you lose some time on the events you can still do this challenge easily.

Grab a career that can go fast (Handmaiden, Slayer, GK etc.) and press the buttons to complete the challenge.

Milestone #1

Just outside the spawn, next to Crow #1.

Milestone #2

A bit further ahead, before the dropdown, next to Crow #3 and #4.

Milestone #3

Just after the bridge event, near the big double doors.

Milestone #4

Just before you climb the steep hill, on the right.

Milestone #5

Just after you climbed the steep hill, in front of you.

Milestone #6

Just after the campfire, on the way going up to the tower.

Milestone #7

After the tower event, on the way to the waystone portal (end portal).

If you are too slow, it will say “Failed” on the chat.

If you are fast, you will complete the challenge.

– Stay On The Pad

To complete the challenge, you need at least one player to stand on the pressure pad for the entire event.

If you jump or move out of the pad, you fail the challenge.

Strategy:

Start a game on Recruit difficulty.

Have a 4 man team or bots.

Have everyone stand in the pressure pad together.

Stand your ground until the event is done.

Do not jump or go out of the pad.

Very easy challenge to complete.
