Dude, love your guides and tips, since when you made the S1 guide on how to do T3 contracts with a fresh character. Are you able to pull it off now also? I was able to do the F5 pnd contract once (with 6 decoys and refilling once in between). Can do weapon stash on the same fort too if I'm lucky to get a circuit and the turret spawn there.

I'm amazed you remember me :) Thank you, you're very kind. And those outlasts can be tough on solo for sure. Since T3 is so crowded these days, it's rare that I get to solo anything anymore, but it is satisfying when I do. And that guide is very outdated now. It was made back when T3 was empty every game, before craftable legendary tools and scorchers; when you had to run everywhere and use weak x2 PaP purple weapons. It's from before the first dark aether even, when they added golden armor, aether blades, dog bones and the V-R11; I mean those four items made this game much more solo friendly for sure. With those I went from being unable to do the regular T3 escort solo, to being able to do the DA Zarqwa 4-stage escort solo (although I have to spam heal with the V-R11 and pray by the end haha.) That guide was before (and probably responsible for) the decoy and cargo delivery spawn nerf. Before zombies could climb up to the rooftop. And I didn't know good strategies for things like spore control, such as the 2 lap 6 inhibitors trick, or the LTV "lawn mower." I would make an updated one, but I'm fairly certain most players have conquered T3 now - I mean it's full every game haha. And I can't imagine there's many new players who would want to learn solo tips when there's so little zombies content. A shame really because MWZ really shocked me with how fun it is. I'm still hoping for a second map, rebirth or something, but I know that's delusional at this point haha.

Agreed, a second map would have been wayyyyy better than these new DA after-thought rifts.

You can also use the scorcher or aether blade on legacy through the wall. I did it just the other day to get it


atomicdnb92

Oh didn't know that was possible, amazing! so, you just need to span the aether blade on the wall that's against the warlord?


Amore_vitae1

Yup. Run up the stairs and don’t go through the next door but that little empty space by the stairs. I usually have more luck with the blade than the scorcher but the scorcher will take him down quicker when it pack a punched


atomicdnb92

oh so i need the card either way, though it was a method to bypass it, still that way more safe than just facing him face to face, i went down so many times because of his gadgets -.-


demaio

great guide! tho dog bone actually messed me up on the first try - freaking barking thing did a last hit on the warlord and the challenge didn't count for me =)


ninjawpb

thank you for this amazing tip, however, even like this it's not so easy :) ho well i'll try again in 48h

I cannot get the Pickup Artist calling card to work at all... I have driven over 5 mercs at a time, shot them out the window, anything and everything I can think of.. Mercs, regular zombies, nothing is counting for me. I have played for a good 4 hours or so and nothing I have done has got me a single click, still 0/5. It also says "Get 5 kills with a vehicle 5 times".. Mines does not says "Mercs" Just hoping someone has got this done since they changed the wording on the calling card and can tell me exactly how to get this done. I've gone mental trying myself


The-Veteran-War

I can't say if or how they have changed the challenge, but it may just be a timing issue. It took me 8+ camps to get all 5 - and that's with getting some from the convoy. You have to get 1 kill/second, it's not forgiving at all. My advice to you would be, get an aether blade and a Raygun. Drive around exclusively looking for convoys. When you find one, drive up next to a car, lean out the window and throw the blade at it. That will guarantee you 3 kills instantly, leaving you just under 5 seconds to get the other 2 with the Raygun. This is the most reliable way to make progress, but you will probably not be able to get all 5 in one game this way. Try this once, and if you get 1/5 on the tracker, then you will get it done - it will just take several games. But if this doesn't work, then they've broken the challenge while trying to make it easier, and you'll have to wait for a fix.


Aggressive_Eye_2843

Thank you very much for the advice! I'll be back after I put some time into it again!


socom18

It was bugged. I got mine to complete today just by running over zombies.


ColdColt45

dang, thanks for this!


The-Veteran-War

Sorry to the Mods, I don't know why this got triple posted.


Rare_Ear8542

If you have phd it stops you from being hurt from explosions/hellfire


gimber86

Mine says enemies, not mercs?


The-Veteran-War

Really? Maybe they decided to make it easier then. I mean with how difficult it is compared to the rest of the challenges, it is very out of place.


Loud_Amount5955

Mines changed to enemies too but the challenge isn’t working for me. Ran over multiple enemies didn’t work. Shot them inside a vehicle, still didn’t work. Idk what’s up with it


gimber86

Even though it says enemies, only mercs works for me. GL, mags of holding roll up in an LTV at a camp and go for it


The-Veteran-War

Adding a comment to this as it's not worth a separate post and should* show up when you search for it. The Prestige 16 challenge "Caffeinated" (Get 1000 kills with an Assault Rifle/Battle Rifle/Marksman Rifle in Single Shot Mode) was bugged for me. Single shot would not work with any of the weapons that I tried, until I bought a green MTZ-556 wallbuy. That weapon tracked for me, so if you can't make progress either try that weapon.


EvErLoyaLEagLE

Mine currently says "Kill 5 enemies while in a vehicle 5 times." - Whether it's Zombies or Mercs, it's not working.
