The 2 Challenges That Almost Everyone Seems To Hate.

I don't understand why people think they're so difficult. They're really easy!

On my most recent playthrough, which was last year, I did the You're Doomed challenge without dying at all. All you need to do is retreat whenever your health goes below 50, and go in and out of rooms until a critter appears, and keep doing this until you get back up to 100 health.

I can also do the Tank Blast challenge without taking a single hit. I can do the first part without even entering the arena, and in the second part, I can hit 6 of the tanks before I have to enter the arena. I can do both parts of it without any of the other tanks doing anything at all. By doing this, it's nothing more than target practice. While this strategy is incredibly slow, if you're not very good and/or unlucky and/or being trolled by the AI, it could actually be quicker.

i didn't know there actually were challenges like this. the only ones i heard about were speedruns, and "fun runs" - where you have to charge through a certain area without stopping.

Re: The 2 Challenges That Almost Everyone Seems To Hate.

well, i'm surprised to hear people hate "You're Doomed" - now that i know what it is, i have to say i never had all that much of a problem with it. it was just sort of a standard challenge to me. the strategy you mentioned is something i do remember doing a lot in Fireworks Factory challenges, though.

as for the one in Haunted Tomb, i always dreaded that. it's interesting that you can do most of it without entering the arena, but i'm not sure how to pull it off.
