I got a target in Stomach Upset 'Easy' difficulty mission with 2.4 million total battle stats, 2 million Defence. The stats were spied by staff member in New Players Chat. There is no way anyone at my age of 19 days would be able to "injure" this target in the stomach as the mission requires. All my hits are 0 damage, I did hit the stomach but the system did not count it as an injury. I also don't see how to reduce this player's stats sufficiently by attacking as a team and a team attack would not be an Easy mission in any case. As a side note I also don't like the target's recent activity (18 days when I got the mission).
Thank you for the replies! To me it was obvious that the mission target was selected in error. If the situation requires discussion of two staff members (total age 7860) on how I could possibly complete an Easy level mission, then something is wrong. In my opinion there would be no group requirement for Easy missions. The hint to the solution should always be in the text of the mission itself. There is none because the mission is to repeat attacking the target until you damage the stomach, simple as that. If I need to gather 20 (or even two) people raid to complete the mission its level should read Hard at least. I think it would be a rewarding experience in itself to actually reach object of the mission in this particular target's case, however I was too new (and supposed to be too new at this stage) to organise it. Anyway if 2 members of the staff consider 2.4m battle stats target for 66k stats player a valid option for Easy attack mission we can consider the issue solved if only because I don't see the point to further waste other people's time. It's just one failed mission in Torn.
I tried to attack with Vicodin only before I knew the stats. The mission's already failed anyway. I might test later, I'm stacking now. It will be an expensive and pointless test just to prove that system assignment might have been right. We already know it wasn't right. Even without trying is it wrong to assume that using a 900k temporary weapon for a chance(!) to injure the stomach of recently active defence freak is an overkill for an Easy Mission? I'm sure I'd need a few attempts at least (if I'll be able to scratch the target at all) due to lottery nature of the mission. That'll bring me to a few millions losses in money, energy and unnecessary cooldowns. And we are talking about Easy Mission for new players. P. S. The target's Defence is 1,952,346. The difference between 1.9m you stated and the real defence is 52,346. Now, 52,346 is still more then double than any of my stat alone and at the moment of getting mission was probably very close to my stats total. I mean at this scale of defence you yourself round up the figure losing value very close to my total. So it's basically nothing, and I agree with you. How can I score against him if I have nothing by this scale?
