The 1-20 No Death Heroic Story Solo Challenge!

Skip the spoiler if you just want to know the rules of the challenge [spoiler]I have levelled 7 characters to level 20. For me the most entertaining and exciting parts of the game have been the times when I would level and see how long it would take for me to die. Than I would continue levelling but since I died already that fear factor wasn't there and it was more of an entertaining grind with enemies. Once I hit level 24 however than it just became a boring grind for more gear to get light level doing the same strikes over and over. With my Titan at level 27 I finnanly hit the raid and it just seemed like it was a big strike with a bunch of stupid rules. Crucible is to much like COD with exotic primarys, every secondary, heavys, special abilitys all KOing you and with a bad connection is just BS. Strikes are so FKing repetitive that has become boring. Weekly Heroic and Nightfall are kinda fun but feels to much like a hide in this corner and shoot. SO before I put this game down for a while (or if they fix their game) I will have a final challenge: [/spoiler] [b]The 1-20 No Death Heroic Story Solo Challenge![/b] Rule 1- You must start a new character and not allowed to access your bank at any time during the challenge. Rule 2- Dying at ANY point in the game ends your challenge if you want to try again just delete the character. Rule 3- You can ONLY play on Heroic mode when doing story missions... no normal mode. Rule 4- ALL story missions MUST be completed only by yourself. If you do a strike its ok to be matched up with RANDOMS but you may not invite a higher level to carry you through. Rule 5- You MUST complete each mission AT LEAST one level higher than your current level. I think that although this challenge is Hard it is far from impossible and I invite anyone who wants to join me in this personal challenge to try this and you will feel a refreshing and exciting twist to the game.

    • This is literally impossable. There is no way you can be level 19 on he last mission of the story and also complete every mission before on heroic.

      • Wait. I thought everyone did their first run on heroic mode. I'm pretty sure I didn't die the whole way through on my first character.

      • Sounds like the WoW ironman challenge except you can wear better gear as you get it and level your skill trees

      • Dreksis oh Dreksis! Had I known your minions would have kept reinforcing you I would have killed you sooner. I would have taken my machine gun and blasted you in the face. But you had that ace up your sleave. My heroic journey ended cornered, assassinated by two of your stealth vandals. But oh well. My heroic journey ends here. Falling to the Mighty Dreksis my kill death ratio at 1700 kills and 1 death. 913 precise kills, 340 ability kills. Having played this challenge was the funnest thing I did in Destiny. Every mission made my stomach quesy. The thing that kept me surving this long was awareness. Knowing where the most dangerous spawns of darkness were even if I couldn't see them. I know if I were to give it another crack I would beat the challenge... it's actually not as hard as is sounds. Always watch your back, know where those deadly enemys are at all times. Have each element ready to take out sheilds so you dont feel the need to chase after an almost killed enemy. Patience and Time. Well I think I'm going to get a job and save up for a next gen console and when destiny gets ALOT more content than I'm sure i'll be back (funny tried it again on heroic and just destroyed him, I think being distracted by my partner may be why I died)

        I just finished the sword of crota mission it took 32 minutes. Never before in a game have I felt such immersion as this. The world of Destiny has become real to me. The shrieks of the thrall cause my heart to race as I run as fast as I can back into safety. Only I run right into one of the sword princes. I slide under his attack as I race for cover. The battle is almost won. I pick of the final weaklings. With the last prince in sight I drop the Sword and bombard him with my rockets and grenades. He races toward me and hits me. If I get hit again... I am dead. I eave the sword running for the middle. This ends now. I pop my Ward of Dawn and pick up the sword that has supernaturally returned to it spot. The prince unleashes his attacks... I, mine. With great satisfaction I keep hacking him, shrugging off the blows with my cosmic armour. With my final strike he falls and I am victorious. Never have I felt such satisfaction and immersion in a game. To fear death is the ultimate immersion. Now I know what Sword Art Online must feel like. And I know my death is inevitable but I must continue into darkness and try my best to not die, not even once. Else I shall cease to exist in this world of Destiny. My hands are shaking as I withdraw the relieving nicotine from my victory cigarette.

      • The only problem I see with this is the heroic missions aren't really scaled properly. For instance when you finish up on earth your usually around lvl 5 or 6 and the very next heroic mission on the moon is like lvl 9 and it's nearly impossible to get kills

        • This sounds like a cool challenge. RNG could really be the lynch pin in whether more casual players could pull it off, but fun to try.

So I get all the way to where I need the gatekeeper head and sure enough I get killed by the aftershock explosion... I was laughing hysterically... I'm up for your challenge...

            • The crucible is NOTHING like CoD. I left CoD because it was like CoD. I don't want to see that game being referenced into another game completely irrelevant to it.
