CloudJumper[1636201] · 1 likes · Here's your mission logs. I am afraid that doesn't include mission tasks. But they should be easy enough to find in one of the player guides.
I got given a mission to defeat A Player with no armour or weapons equipped, so before doing so like many other I initiated an attack before hand to lower there health unfortunately I defeated them but as this didn’t Clarify on the first attempt, I assumed this would be okay like many I’ve done before, I.E only use a piercing weapon and so on so forth. Unfortunately This lead to me failing the mission, Surely This is unfair due to the non Clarification of “On The First Attempt”
You can use multiple attempts to lower the opponent's HP, as long as you don't use a weapon. The only requirement for the mission is to be unarmed as mentioned in the mission description and requirement statement. Changing it to "on first attempt" would be incorrect because you are allowed multiple chances to complete the mission as long as you don't have weapons and armors equipped. You disregarded the only requirement of the mission, which is why it failed.
But I’ve had many missions in the past where I’ve defeated them with the wrong thing and never been an issue is what I’m getting at, the only time it’s ever been different is if it says on first attempt which this one didn’t, although I understand what your explaining, there are some discrepancies between missions some will allow this and then clearly others don’t I.E ^

Can you specify which mission and the objective that you are referring to?
Here’s the previous mission and I’ll attach the 2 attack logs in which I hit him too hard 1st try them completed it on the 2nd in which it gave no failure.
The difference is the task objective really. This one has a positive objective "Use XXX item to defeat opponent". The mission you are referring to has a negative objective "Do NOT use xxx to defeat the opponent".
In both cases you get multiple attempts as long as you are following the primary objective. If the Trout mission were to enforce a failure upon missing with Trout, it would basically mean you HAVE to do it in a single attempt, if you miss with the Trout you are screwed. To give people multiple attempts, the mission has to remain open, because simply speaking, you failed to achieve the objective, but you didn't go against any specific directive.
For the armor mission, DUKE is asking you NOT to use weapons/armors, so you mustn't use them.
Wow, okay although I understand this I could easily see how this could become very confusing and you’ve basically got to read the wording on every mission to establish what you can and can’t do to have multiple attempts, I personally feel like that maybe needs simplifying but there we are, albeit im not happy with it but guess I will have to swallow it
Yeah reading is a pain, but if you want specific things changed you could log a suggestion to get Ched to take a closer look.... show how you would reword all the confusing missions to make them clearer
I think just clarification of either first time or not which isn’t really gonna get much attention from ched so I suppose just lesson learnt and hope others have seen it too for there own benefit
