Challenge 1:
Defeat a Rockbear on the highest difficulty available to you solo w/ no equip (no weapon, no units, not even a mag) or partner characters or class skills (i.e. Fury Stance or anything else) or PAs/techs.
You will have only 2 monomates available for healing.

In other words: you, bear bare hands, dodge moves, and 2 monomates VS Rockbear.

Cool, I'm melee only anyway. I do think the most realistic run though would be a no items/no healing/MAG 0% run, or rather that would be a nice way to practice for presented challenge.

DD Solo no damage would be pretty easy for Gu/Ra though, Aerial Shooting elevation spam + Bullet Squall on everything = Everything scrambling under you for a hit but failing as you headshot kill them out of harms way. Wouldnt be hitting any speed records though. Then there's Force...

I'll probly try NI/NH/0% at some point first, DD itself is no problem but the little hits you take here and there can ultimately get you fucked over.

Its more like
Challange: Get abducted.
FUCK.

I wanna see someone survive (and beat the crap out of) dragon EX with knuckles.

Spoiler!

Using any 7* weapon.. defeat all dual bosses (including Banther/Banshee) with mob.

- No red weapons
- No damage
- Very hard only

in order to get the mob and second boss to spawn you will need someone in your party and you also have to transport into the field together. after the bosses and mob spawn the other player must abort the quest or get killed. I recommend removing all armor and mag if they choose to stay in the party.

The Syklone Challenge (teehee)
Rules
-Solo any boss on very hard mode, using twin daggers WITHOUT LOSING TWIN DAGGER GEAR!
This means:
-Cannot touch the ground (except via PA's)
-Cannot take damage
========
-The challenge begins the moment damage is dealt to the enemy, so you can stay on the ground until then (even launch a PB)
-No partners after challenge starts, so kick your npc's before the PB hits if you plan to do that strategy
-Any class combination allowed, so techs are allowed, but since you need PA's, a FI is required.

Bonus points if you can accomplish that on Big Vardha.

I would totally try the Den thing. I think its very doable. The biggest issue outside getting to Den, which is more frustrating than the run itself at times, would be minor projectiles such as the red turrets which would make doing this, especially as melee, but even ra or fo, pretty retarded. Zeshreida's projectiles with their homing are also difficult to avoid at times although this isn't a huge issue unless he's spinning. I'll try this though if I get abducted anytime soon on a class combo I like. Absolutely possible, not incredibly easy to do.

Edit: Ah, and before someone pulls the "LOLZ FO IS EASY BECAUSE BIG DODGE HURR" card, think about what you're suggesting before you make yourself look like an idiot. There's this thing called end lag, and the FO dodge has a LOT of that. Sure, most of the time at the moment it doesn't matter *yet* because enemies don't attack again soon enough most of the time. However in Den alone, there are so many things coming at you at once that even if you do dodge, if you're not careful you can still easily be forced into submission. Having tremendous amounts of enemies attacking can mess you up badly.

"But what about dodge canceli-" NO! Try it. You notice how you have to take non invincible frames to hop? And how as soon as you touch the floor you're pretty much vulnerable? And how you barely move with it? The beginning vulnerablity is a huge flaw with this technique. That's not even mentioning that many techs are position based and one needs to jump in order to use them effectively.

2 more difficulty jumps assuming ai speeds up as it has been and Fo dodge will outright suck for the reasons mentioned above.
