Femtokelvin 🙄
Of the dozen or so challenges I have remaining, Femtokelvin was one of the most annoying. Even though my build freezes every enemy, nothing counted towards this challenge for months. Finally broke down and farmed the Tediore bots (they don’t die, so you can repeatedly freeze them).
I was never really that invested in going for these challenges, but lacking anything fresh and exciting in the end game I decided to prioritize these and try completing them strictly on UVHM6. Now that I’ve spent dozens of hours on the effort, I can say there are a number of them that are just broken (either not registering at all when a kill is attributed to a more dominant damage instance or not getting triggered because a weapon or underbarrel inexplicably doesn’t count).
Gearbox, you need to fix this. Challenges are supposed to be fun goals to chase and then brag about when you achieve them. When the mechanics are completely malfunctioning, it turns into an extremely boring and tedious exercise. I didn’t want to cheese this challenge, but there was literally nothing else I tried that would work. And rather than feeling good about reaching the goal, it felt gross and disappointing. So please stop putting in broken challenges just to fill space. Think about what would be fun and actually challenging to go after. As it is, these are just uncalibrated and untested filler content.
Now back to throwing 100,000 more singularity grenades to hit the 500 kills challenge.
Oh and shouldn’t Shooting the Barrel be a get kills while aiming challenge? Sliding while shooting an SMG doesn’t make a lot of sense.
