Authors Notes

• This guide includes most of the base challenges including all the DLC! Most of them appear after you purchase the Winds of Magic DLC.
• I’m not very good at English, so I will make mistakes in places, which over time, I will try to reduce.
• To quickly find a particular challenge – press “Ctrl+F” and type in its name or the name of the DLC in which it is present.
• Of course, I decided to focus, (at least at first), only on the challenges that can rightfully be considered as such! (I didn’t emphasize the less significant and obvious tasks)
• If you want to know how to speed up the challenges associated with the “Complete 100 missions”, go to the “Deeds” section at the very bottom.
• Regarding “Difficulty Challenges”, I would like to inform you that you do not need to solve each challenge at a separate difficulty level. You only need to complete the “Cataclysm” or “Legend” difficulty level once, and all previous difficulty levels will be counted as completed.
• At the moment, there are only about 700 Challenges in the game.

  

This section mainly consists of Difficulty Challenges
To do this, you just need to complete certain missions on the “Cataclysm” difficulty once.
You don’t have to solve each specific mission separately.

If you don’t have this unlocked map, I recommend you to watch this video.
https://youtu.be/b8284fzAJxY?si=r6f5eiVrvs2VGWU3
The only thing is that you may have difficulty completing Fortunes of War on Cataclysm difficulty.
Basically, it can be completed after a few attempts, thanks to a good team or an experienced captain. But in order to better understand strategy, kiting and others, there are complete guides for this mode on the Internet.
However, to better understand strategy, kiting, and other mechanics, there are useful guides available for this map on steam.

I think this will help some players avoid making less informed mistakes. Also, to better understand some micro moments, there are many True Solo walkthroughs on this map available on YouTube.

The cheesy way of passing:
If you still can’t make it through this challenge, it’s best to just leave it for later, use cheese only as a last resort or on your conscience!

The first half of the challenge is completed as you progress through the game.
The main difficulty appears in the second half.

By default, all Helmgart challenges are completed on Legend difficulty level, but after purchasing Winds of Magic DLC you will be able to complete these challenges again, but on Cataclysm.
However, it is worth considering an important nuance: if you decide to perform immediately on the cataclysm, you will still have to pass the challenges again and on the legend.
I tried to focus more on solo play with bots, as it is changing demanding for extra help, which will be useful when a teammate is absent.

1. Master of Convergence
Line up all 3 Athel Yenlui leylines within 30 seconds

For this challenge, you will need a team of at least three people. The optimal choice will be heroes with invisibility, such as RV, Huntsman, and Shade. When you reach the final event, spread out into positions. Once everyone is in position, start the countdown and spin the dials at the same time (when the invisibility ends, don’t forget to drink the concentration potion). When you’re done, you’ll receive a hint in the chat.

2. Cage Breaker
Rescue all prisoners within 60 seconds on Against the Grain

Unlike the previous challenge, this one can be completed solo. You’ll need a mobile character, such as a Handmaiden with the Decanter trait in her charm and attack and movement speed traits. She and the bots will also need a Potion of Concentration or Speed. Start the timer by opening the first cell. Once that happens, you drink the potion and move quickly (using movetech[docs.google.com]) to the first set of squares: 4 on the lower level and 2 at the top. Once the Handmaiden is up top again, you drink the potion and open the two cages, then climb the stairs to the second shed.
Here, you jump and reach the two cells on the upper level, then jump down and open the last two cells. If no message appears in the chat, it means that you acted too slowly; try again, but a little faster.

3. Heldenhammer Time
Have the Statue of Sigmar kill 3 Chaos Warriors on Righteous Stand

The difficulty of this challenge is that 3 CWs are not guaranteed to spawn in the final event, but there is a chance of meeting them in front of the temple or encountering a patrol. Let me tell you about how to complete the challenge solo. First, take the HM and put up some weaker bots.

Once you get to the drop off spot (where the 3 tom is a little further away), kill the bots so they don’t interfere with the kiting CWs. If a CWs patrol shows up, carefully led them behind you. Or, if after drop off you encounter 2 CWs and one at the entrance to the temple (his spawn is guaranteed), lead them all inside the temple (I recommend not going into invis at this moment). Already in the temple, wait for the animation of climbing or jumping off CWs from the upper platforms and instantly go into invis. The CWs’ AI will be disabled, and they will just freeze in place. Once you’ve done this with all CWs, start the event and run to revive our bots.

Then, stay here until the end of the event and fight off the crowds of enemies; if any of the bots are dead, he will revive at this location. If the three CWs you need aren’t on the way to the temple, you’ll have to go through the entire event in true solo or restart the mission, as CWs from the event don’t work in this trick. Once you’re out of invisibility, they’ll still follow you wherever you go.

There are also cheese strategies. I’m not going to talk about them in detail, I’m just going to show these videos. I think you will guess for yourself how it can be optimized. The only downside of these strategies is the length of time it takes to go through them.
The first cheesy spot is for any character
Second cheesy spot for BW only.

4. You Take Me Up
Have 15 enemies be sucked up in one of Burblespue Halescourge’s tornados

This challenge can also be done solo. To do this, change the bots to more squishy ones (e.g. Huntsman, BW, BH).
Next, choose a Handmaiden or IB and equip as much Block Cost Reduction as possible. Get to the ammo box (before the final event), use all the healing items, and shoot the bots out of the way. You can also wait for the horde to spawn by luring them into the arena. During the event, when the enemies start to appear, block them and stand roughly in the middle. Then, a tornado will appear; just back away from it. Enough opponents should appear that they will be pulled in by the tornado. If successful, you will see a message in the chat confirming that the quest is complete, and you can now pick up the bots and kill Burblespue.

5. A Little Something in You Eye
Kill 25 enemies by dropping the Cannonball on their heads in Fort Brachsenbrücke

Most players have overcome this challenge with a teammate who aggroes the mobs below. However, there is an option to tackle it solo. Let me explain how to do it:

First, you need to spawn a cannonball, so perform the initial cannonball mechanics as usual. Once the cannonball appears, grab it and go to the turret where the guaranteed ammo box is located. The bots should teleport there, so the mobs won’t bother you, and you can push them down. You should take this path to the roof.
Walk a bit forward to this edge, so the bots can jump down and stay there. Then just wait for the mobs to gather near the bots and throw the cannonball.

The cannonball blast has huge damage and a radius of 10m. It can instantly kill any enemy, including you, your teammates, and even some lords. If you fail, try pulling up the bots and doing it all over again. If you don’t think there are enough mobs, use VerminTwitch.

6. Blessed by the Father
Have one player get “bathed” by all Nurgle buboes in the end event of Festering Ground

A fairly simple challenge that doesn’t require any bloodshed among the heroes. All that is required to successfully complete this challenge is for someone participating to take damage from the poisonous pus of each bubo in the final event.

Take any tank, for example, HM/IB/Unchained, and set Barkskin to Necklace. Then, just focus on not missing any buboes and do a little puddle dance to guarantee you complete the challenge.

NOTE: For some reason, bots lose HP very quickly while in the puddle, so ideally, it’s best to do this with players.
If you don’t know the locations of all the buboes, I recommend watching this video:
https://youtu.be/gPUF_T41ZqE?si=eWL4l1MKLzVy7XIj

The principle of the challenge is similar to Cage Breaker, first choose any mobile careers, best of all a handmaiden (with a carafe) and during the mission find some cons/speed potions.
Once you’re in the arena, drink the potion and promptly break all the chains. As the rat ogre appears and the passage opens, drink a second potion and then, a little later, a third. Then just run to the portal, you should see a message in the chat next to it.
Notes:
1) The timer starts counting from the moment you enter the arena and ends near the portal.
2) During the run, try to ignore most of the enemies, including the boss.
https://youtu.be/5dQWgySj7uc?si=QUtN8cNF956xmEL-
8. Feed Me, Sinner!
Have all four party members stand inside the ritual pool for 120 seconds in Convocation of Decay

In my opinion, these challenges are easier to complete with bots because the conditions affect only the players, making it easier to control the situation. For example, if you or another player is knocked down or grabbed from the pool, it will lead to failure, but if a bot is involved, that won’t happen. Avoid jumping into a pool, as this can also lead to failure. Choose any character you like, but don’t forget to find the conc potion—at some point, it can become your real salvation.

A message in the chat indicating that the challenge has been completed appeared about 15 seconds before the ritual was actually completed.

9. Glutton: Punishment
Ring the Dinner Bell and kill the Troll in less than 15 seconds

As in the previous challenge, passing with bots will be easier than with unpredictable players.
For successful completion, we need Shade, because her invisibility ability w/ Cloak of Pain lasts longer than the others.
In the course of the mission find conc potion, then when we with bots roll the wagon to the end, call the bell, drink the potion, enter invisibility and go to meet the troll. Be sure to ignore him (do not attack) and go on to the end up to the closed passage.
At this time, the troll should reach the middle of the bridge and disappear the moment it collapses.
Don’t worry about the bots – they will instantly teleport to you 🙂
DEMONSTRATION

Character Selection: 1) For kiting/Solo – Handmaiden 2) For lord damage/teammate – Any bosskiller such as BH.
Quite exhausting challenge if it is to pass only with bots. In the beginning you need to wound all bots, or better yet, kill them to avoid accidentally killing the lord before completing the challenge.
To deal damage to the lord, you need to have as many potions of strength and bombs as possible. You can find all of these as you go through the mission, but I recommend putting a Ranger Veteran with the Scavenger talent (20) on one of the bots so you don’t have trouble finding them.

As soon as the lord jumps down, actively drink potions of strength and throw bombs. Then will spawn enemies kill all but CW, and be ready to block their attacks. When you get cornered, dash forward and run to the opposite corner, the CW should go first on you and the lord should knock them down with his dash. As soon as you see the challenge message, carefully revive your bots and kill the lord.
If you have a partner, it will be much easier to deal damage at the beginning and at the end. (Well, in general it will be quieter).

11. More Where They Came From
Have Skarrik Spinemanglr kill 40 Skaven

Take our favorite Handmaiden for this challenge to block the attacks of the enemies and kite from them. If you choose to go through with bots, I recommend not killing them first before the event, as they should be dead as the event progresses anyway. Also, make sure they don’t each have healing items in their slot.
In the beginning, do a decent amount of damage to the lord with the bomb + potion of strength and with our bots, but don’t overdo the damage 🙂 After a while, the lord will back himself into a corner and summon enemies to fight you. Around this moment the bots will begin to dying, if this happens don’t revive them. Let the rat slaves pile up, and Skarrik will kill them by slashing and twirling them around the arena. Once you see the chat message that the challenge is complete, finish off the lord and revive the bots.
DEMONSTRATION

12. Powder Monkey
Complete Empire in Flames without using any of the event spawned Explosive Barrels

Quite a challenge, but doable if you keep your cool. There are a total of 4 guaranteed barrel spawn spots and 23 not guaranteed on this map.
I don’t recommend taking the first barrel, as you’ll have to carry it for quite a while, which increases the chance of it exploding. Start picking from the second guaranteed barrel or in the area of the first grimoire.

THE LOCATION OF ALL BARRELS:[imgur.com]

Grab a barrel and advance across the map. Just be careful dropping the barrel in a spot where the hordes can’t hit it, and be sure to destroy any special items you’re here before picking it back up. Don’t move too slowly, you’ll need to maintain a decent pace.

TIPS FOR THE FINAL EVENT:
1) Don’t push the cart all the way to the gate before setting up the barrels!
– If you do, you will not get credit for this challenge. Push the cart halfway, then stack the barrels before pushing the cart all the way.
2) Do not explode any of the barrels generated by the event!
– If any of them explode, you will not get credit for this challenge.

13. Ride Together, Die Together
Kill Deathrattler and then Rasknitt within 20 seconds

For this challenge, you will want to dismount Rasknitt by damaging Deathrattlers control panel on his back. After Rasknitt hops down, damage him as much as you can. For this purpose I recommend choosing any bosskilers for example (BH, Shade, BW, GK). He will jump back onto Deathrattler multiple times, so try not to do too much damage to Deathrattler other than hitting his control panel. Once Rasknitt goes into his kneeling animation, kill Deathrattler. As soon as Deathrattler is dead, finish off Rasknitt. The 20-second timer starts as soon as Deathrattler is dead, it does not matter how much time you spend prior to his death. It’s the same with both teammates and bots, the only difference is the execution time.

There is also a cheese strategy, but I would not recommend it, for it is quite exhausting, but the choice is yours.

4/5. Spray and Pray & Old World Dash
Legend: Finish The Pit while taking no damage from Ratling Gunners
Legend: Reach the Bridge of Shadows within thirty seconds of starting the gauntlet

Fairly simple challenges that go in based together. I’m not sure if shooting from ships actually counts as damage from Ratling Gunners, but in any case, try to avoid damage from them.

Both BW and HM are great for these challenges. HM has a shield & spear that can block Ratling Gunners shots, and BW has a teleported that can be used to easily avoid shots, which will be useful in the final run. I also recommend getting the Concoction trait in Charm.

2. Insurance Premium
Find and reimburse the Bögenhafen Shipping Company for damaged property

Find and interact with the property ledger inside the Stevedore’s Guild.
This is located above the upper part of Rosen Allee on the way to the Dreicke Platz after leaving the sewer, and will require some difficult platforming to reach. Be careful doing this with bots, as you can be grabbed by Assassins during the platforming sections, and they will not help you.

1) When you are on the bridge, turn left onto and jump onto the wall and then onto the railing.
2) Look down to your left here, there should be a wooden pole jutting out of the edge of the building opposite. Carefully jump down to it, then hop across a series of poles curving around the edge of the building.
3) Make a long jump from the final pole to a pair of stacked crates in the middle of the street, then onto the stone awning across from it.
4) Next, you want to hop up onto the buttress on the right, with the pub sign above it. This can be difficult as the pub sign can knock you down mid-jump, so shooting the sign to make it swing and then timing your jump can help.
5) Next, jump across onto the wooden covered awning above some stalls.
To the of here is a balcony you can hop onto which leads to the Stevedore’s Guild and the ledger, just interact with it to dump a few gold pieces and complete the challenge.

If you’re playing as Slayer/HM/Zealot/BW/WP (Hammer & Book dash) you can skip almost all of this from the upper level on the left of Rosen Allee.
Just jump to that corner, hold w and carefully climb the fence, then the stone railing and the two stacked crates using your dash. From there, just jump onto the overhang and then directly onto the balcony of the Movers Guild next to you.

3/4. Journey in the Dark & Me? I Thought You Had It?
Legend: Navigate the sewers without lighting a single brazier
Legend: Navigate the sewers without picking up a Torch

These two challenges are usually performed together. To better navigate in the dark, take with you a Moonfire Bow or a Coruscation Staff, which will also light the way like a torch.
An even better way to bring light in the dark is to use either Sienna’s Bolt Staff or Bardin’s Drakefire Pistols.
With them you can shoot projectiles which illuminates the impact area (enemy or terrain) for a second and that’s most of the time enough to see, especially if you fire more than one shot.

5. Fast Flipper
Legend: Leave no hidden switch unturned for longer than 3 seconds, end event.

The switches are located in five locations[vermintide2.fandom.com], but the order in which they become active is random.
After pressing this switch, the first random switch will be available after about 15 seconds. The next switch (the second one) will appear after 30 seconds, and so on, up to the fifth switch.
STRATEGY:
To have enough time to activate all five switches, you need at least one teammate who has a dash, such as HM, FK, Slayer, or Zealot.
Your teammate will be on the left side of the library (top), controlling two switches (bottom and top).

Your character will be at the very top right of the library, managing the other three switches. Use BW teleport to quickly shorten the distance to the switches, then climb back up to the top and repeat this until all three switches in that area are activated.

Tips:
– Be sure to memorize the sequence of the switches you’ve already pressed so that you know roughly where the next switch will appear in the future.
– If you want, you can increase the hero attack and movement speed
– This challenge can be completed solo, but you need to be very lucky to get the right switch.

Shadows over Bögenhafen
Collect all Shadows over Bögenhafen cosmetic items

Just buy all the purple illusions at the Emporium of Wonders. They are inexpensive, only 50 shillings apiece, but there are quite a few of them — 84 to be exact. It would take 4,200 shillings to buy them all.

Regarding the challenges (BARRELS OF FUN | POUCH PILFERER | CHAINBREAKER | DEMOLITIONIST) I recommend going straight through them on the legendary so you can complete both challenges beforehand and not have to go back to them again.

5. Demolitionist
Blow up all three Doom Wheels within 5 seconds of each other on Engines of War

The goal is to blow up all Doomwheels at the same time. First order of business is to clear the whole area of extra Skaven, as additional to the spawning Infantry waves and Plague Monks, there are also Infantry and Stormvermin guarding the wheels. While doing this, take the Kegs up to each Wheel and drop them next to it for later use. Once these preparations are complete, split up and make your way to the Wheels. It is best to do this immediately after killing some Specials, as it will take some time for them to respawn. As there are three wheels and four players, it is advised to group up the two players with the least crowd control and survivability.

When all players are in place, count down and place the barrels. Let the player without keg count down in chat or use voice communication. Make sure to call out as soon as something goes wrong, so other players don’t accidentally place the kegs too soon.

6. One Last Jig
Perform a Bretonnian Dance in the Mother Black on Engines of War

Play through the level normally, until you reach the final event area, The Mother Black. Do not ring the Bell to signal the ship. Instead, clear out the area of Enemies, then enter the inn. You may have to turn up your game volume for this. On the ground floor, at the rear left of the inn, there is a corner where you can hear a rhythmic creaking noise.
Standing in the corner, jump in time with the creaks, for about a minute. Gradually, you will start to hear a drum beat, then faint music, which grows louder as you continue. Keep it up until the music stops to complete the challenge. The timing does not change at any point, so setting a keypress macro at a regular interval

What every single guide to this challenge fails to mention, even though it is a game changer, is that the creaking noise falls under music volume. If you have yours turned down in favor of your own music, like most do, you won’t be able to hear the creaks. Once i turned my music volume up this was simple.

Before reaching the first large open graveyard, there will be a tomb on the right which you can enter. Inside the tomb is an open coffin, lined with flowers. Simply stand inside this coffin for around 30 seconds, until the challenge complete sound plays. This is not a party challenge, each player will have to do this individually.
https://youtu.be/Ia61FvqqJg4?si=GpD-wqRynKTlqJyS
9. Chainbreaker
Cut down all the Cauldron Chains within 5 seconds of each other on Garden of Morr

DEMONSTRATION
The way to complete this challenge is simple: the party needs to split up, and each player needs to make his way to one of the four chains. Once everyone is in place and has the space to break the chains, all chains need to be destroyed simultaneously. Communication is key, and it is advised to make the player with the lowest DPS do the countdown and start, since it will take longer for that player to destroy the chain.

Here you can have time to break two chains at once, using a mobile character such as BW or HM. So you need to have at least three players to complete this challenge.

10. Last Respects
Find Grandmother Zingler’s Bones and Lay Them To Rest

I noticed that in most of the guides the way to the bones is through tedious parkour, however I managed to find a more elegant solution. Instead of having to suffer through jumping, all you have to do is lean against the wall and start jumping while looking at the crate as shown in the picture.
After picking them up, continue the level as normal until the drop down into the trench area (“Peasant Hill”). Shortly after arriving in this area, there is a side path to the left with a ladder. Ignore the ladder and head just past it, where there is a freshly dug grave with an open coffin. Place the bones in the coffin to complete the challenge. This challenge will be completed for the entire party as long as one player completes it.

The first part consists of a difficulty challenge and a 10th weave challenges.
To complete them, you can go through any weaves, both fast and ranked. You can learn more about them in the “Weave Expeditions” section at the very bottom of the guide.

1. Saw It Coming
Finish the ambush within 27 seconds

There is no difficulty level limit on this challenge, so choose Recruit and Hero that have good Crowd Control and/or multikill abilities. When the makeshift wall is destroyed by the Bestigors in the given time, a message will appear in chat about the challenge completion.

2. Off The Beaten Path
Take the alternate route towards the crater

This alternate route allows you to get around the ambush event and end up to a Grimoire. As such, this and “Saw it coming” cannot be obtained in one playthrough. After dropping down into the Encampment, if you hug the right you’ll come across a small mine entrance that has been barricaded.
This barricade can be blown up with an Explosive Barrel, one of which quite often spawns in the vicinity of the river that leads towards the ambush.
After blowing up the barricade, you get into Old Muntz Mine, where you have to climb some ladders and jump between platforms to reach the top of the mineshaft. From there continue along the mine until you come outside the mines. There you have to jump a broken bridge to cross the river. After that there is a drop to where the first Grimoire is located. After exiting the cave players should get have completed the challenge.

3. Keepsake
Find the lost cameo pendant

After the ambush event (or going through the “Off The Beaten Path” challenge) you’ll end up in a large area. If you stay left and climb on some higher ground, you may see that there is a ledge you can jump to. If you jump to the ledge and continue alongside the river you’ll make it to a Chest and a Beastmen banner decoration. On the left side of the banner decoration, the Cameo Pendant is hanging from the end of the horn.

4. Dark Tongue I
Locate all of the runes left by a band of Beastmen

There are a total of 10 beastmen runes in the map, 1st and 2nd being in the Encampment area, before dropping down to the ambush event, 3rd, 4th and 5th in the following area after the ambush event. The 6th and 7th are in the next drop-off area, where you can see the vortex and the damage the meteor has done. The 8th being in the area where you cross the chasm via crossing the fallen tree. After dropping down, in where you have to jump over a small gap to continue into the destroyed forest, the 9th rune is down in the gap and the last rune is in the burned forest, after you’ve made it to the open, turn left and keep heading back where you came from until you come to a rock with the rune on it.

Quite simple if you know the location of the specific runes you have to find. The runes in order you have to find are the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 6th and 8th rune. If you did it right, you should hear a sound, signalling that you have to backtrack to the cave where the second Tome is located.
After activating the last rune, make one jump here to go back.
There, you have to go to the boulder at the other end of the cave and push it out of the way.
When you enter what the boulder was blocking you should get the challenge completed. This is also a vital part in getting DARK TONGUE III

6. Dark Tongue III
Locate and enter the Beastmen lair

When you follow DARK TONGUE II challenge, when you’re in the beastmen lair, there should be a Key that opens the chest at the end of the level. When you find the key, continue through the Mission like normal until you jump down the final drop-off point before the finale event. The locked chest should be in the cave entrance with a painting scrap in it. Picking up the painting scrap should complete the challenge. Also in this chest are two guaranteed bombs.

It is recommended to do all challenges on recruit difficulty and with the bots.

1. Iconoclast
Complete a level without letting a Shadow Totem live for longer than 10 seconds.

Can only have 1 Totem on the map. The map will spawn a totem in 25-35 seconds near players if the previous Totem was destroyed.
Just aim for instant focus on it. For fast totem destruction, I highly recommend using heroes with range ult. (e.g. WS, Pyro, BH).

2. Bring it on!
Complete a level without anyone in the team destroying a Shadow Totem.

For this challenge, use a mobile character such as HM/BW/Slayer and run through the level as fast as possible, ignoring all totems.

3. Skulking Skulls
Destroy 5 Shadow Skulls that are just about to hit an ally.

It’s best to do this with a teammate, but bots will do too. I recommend taking melee bots, as they won’t shoot the skulls flying at them, and you’ll be able to shoot them all. (And again, I recommend taking heroes with a range or invisible ult)

4. Getting Ahead of A Head
Complete a level without being hit by a Shadow Skull.

Same as the second challenge, but ideally it’s better to take Handmaiden with invis ult.

All of them can be completed in one go, and quickly and efficiently. Find two teammates in advance for the 8th challenge.

5. Thwarting The First-Damned
Complete the Temple of Shadows

Destroy the Shadow Locus in level is mandatory to proceed to The Temple of Shadows.

6. Mortal Victory
Complete the Temple of Shadows without anyone in the party having any character or weapon upgrades.

All players should not take any boon/upgrades/chests, it is safest to go through this with bots. Run through all levels like this until the temple of shadows appears.

7. Thrice Damned, Thrice Fallen
Have all Shadow Champions active at the same times in the Temple of Shadows.

First you need to clear the area of ​​enemies surrounding the Shadow Locus, then quickly activate them one by one and ignore all enemies.

8. On The Count Of Three
Destroy all three Shadow Loci in the Temple of Shadows within 3 seconds of each other.

In this challenge, you will definitely need teammates – at least two, to simultaneously destroy all Shadow Locus.
After activating all Shadow Locus, destroy all Shadow Champions, then each player must take their Crystal and stand next to the Locus. When everyone is ready, one of the players gives the command and all three Shadow Locus are destroyed.

9. Speed Daemon
Complete the Temple of Shadows in 230 seconds.(~4 minutes)

The countdown starts from the moment you jump off into the temple and ends when all three Shadow Locus are destroyed. Don’t waste a second, act quickly and decisively!

1. Strike
Hit a Strike

Hit 10 enemies by rolling the cogwheel during the event at the sawmill. This can be achieved either by funneling all enemies into the stairs section and then rolling the cog downhill, or by drawing lots of rats into the building on the right (near the entrance to the area), hiding in the corner and pushing the rats into the corner to make them bunch up.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2804697721
3. Sleigh-er
Kill 50 enemies with the Sleigh on Trail of Treachery

This one you have very little control over, other than rushing forward with the sleigh, to kill unaware enemies in its path.
You can get sleigh kills easiest on the upwards slope sections (especially in front of the sawmill and in the forest after the sawmill) by repeatedly moving away from the sleigh and back towards it so it moves up and down in the same area, while a horde surrounds it.

4. The Beacons Are Lit
Light all three Beacons on Trail of Treachery

If I’ve done the math correctly, the value of the entire store in the game at the moment is about 137530 coins! Assuming we get coins only from quests, it would take us about 7 years to buy up the entire assortment. 250 (weekly) + 105 (daily) = 355 coins per week (18460 coins per year). 137530 / 18460 = 7.4 years. source:[github.com]

Grimoire or Tome will not count towards the quest: If you pick it up and then drop it or dead with it.

Pointed Interruption
Have a Bestigor charge a Chaos Warrior

Usually this completes itself, but if you’re having trouble finding CW and the Bestigor, then use our favorite Vermintwitch and go to the Dark Omen map, specifically to the spot where the little ambush is taking place. As soon as the CW vote appears, boldly jump down, quickly clearing the area of trash enemies. Next, just gauge the moment when the Bestigor will strike the CW.

One’s All it Takes
Kill a Lord as the last player standing

These challenges usually take a while to complete, but if you’re looking for a quick completion, go to the map where the lord resides. I recommend choosing Into the Nest or The War Camp maps, as the lords are pretty easy on them. Next, select the Champion difficulty to deal damage to bots and pick up any bosskiller such as BH, Shade, or Huntsman. Before the arena with the lord, there will be an ammo crate nearby; use it to kill the bots and then fight the lord afterward. Use all available resources to finish the boss fight as quickly as possible.

Quite a grueling task – it will take a significant amount of time to complete all the challenges. However, there is a very well-known way to speed up this process. Yes, it may not seem completely honest, but its reliability and effectiveness are beyond doubt. We are talking about the application of “deed glitch” and “skip pit”. The pit allows for a fairly fast and simple travel, while we need deed glitch to select a specific map.

An even more grueling task was for me to complete all 160 weaves, on which I spent more than a month. The difficulty was in finding teammates: at first I decided to go it solo, but it turned out to be not a good idea, because at that time no one had ever completed all the weaves solo. It took a lot of effort and time to complete at least two weaves, and in the end I stopped at 54. Soon I met a great teammate, and we continued our journey with a full team. Thanks to him, I learned where I could find companions to overcome those damn weaves.
