The Rufus Challenge (NML Heavy Weight Champ: BWils at level 2,146)

Carly

My friend 5656 issued a challenge within our guild. Thought I'd share it here as well.

Rules are simple, using Rufus on point (lead) how high walker level can you reach before you get in a struggle.

Check out his video. The challenge is issued, who will accept? Post screenshot/video if you reach/exceed The Rufus Challenge.

Troublemaker

I'm sorry I don't have videos for this one from past challenges. I think I would be a top contender.

I really like him. Interesting and very strategic hero trait.

Carly

Do you accept the challenge @Troublemaker ? 🙂

The walker level to beat/match with Rufus on point is level 50.

Oh no no no! hahah
Definitely can't beat that - except on very specific maps + events

Carly

I'm stopped at level 43...

A challenge involving two Bruisers and a chance to perhaps impress @Jenng with my swole Rufus? Oh hell yeah...

The highest level Zed that I actually killed was level 57. As for the level 58 in the screenshot I chopped away at it for probably 10 minutes and he still had about 15% of his health left. I wound up catching some bad luck and one of his buddies handed me my ass before I could finish him off.

Fun challenge, thanks @Carly! Looking forward to other folks results.

Jenng

I am duly impressed @tabernac



Possibly the sexiest display I’ve seen today. 🙌

Carly

Nice, congrats. @tabernac

The walker level to beat is now level 57!

Take the Rufus Challenge and post your video/screenshot.

Psstt... @5656

BWils

Level 78...and still going

MrLucky

@BWils
W O W !

Carly

Incredible! Congrats!! The new leader is @BWils

The bar has been raised again! Bring out your Rufus and take the Rufus Challenge issued by @5656!

5656

Awesome!! Just awesome! Can't keep my jaws from dropping! Thank you for challenging @BWils and @tabernac ! Those are the coolest thing I saw lately!!

5656

Thanks for sharing it and challenging @Carly !! Woohoo!

Carly

All credit to you my friend @5656 for thinking of this insanely fun challenge. Look, I can even say the name...Ruu...Ruuff..okay, still work in progress!

Who can beat level 78???

BWils

bailed after this

MrLucky

@BWils
I'll say it again.
W O W .

Carly

Walker level 116 reached by BWils on the Rufus Challenge! Can anyone beat this??!

Congrats @BWils

tabernac

The gauntlet has again been thrown down thanks to 3 things:

1. Slow shift at work due to the holiday...
2. My ridiculous competitive nature...
3. My need for @Jenng to admire my Rufus...

Max Level Zed Killed = 118


Max Level Zed Reached = 135


COME AT ME @BWils! (on second thought please don't....my eyes are bleeding)

Carly

Dah-yam @tabernac

I was all set to declare @BWils winner of The Rufus Challenge, but you raised the bar...then raised it again!! Congrats!!

Is there anyone bold enough to reach level 135 walkers by using Rufus on point?

CURRENT LEADER OF THE RUFUS CHALLENGE: tabernac

tabernac

Here's one from the blooper reel. I call it "Lordy Mercy, Please Don't Kill me Zombie Gretzky!"

BWils

got a couple pissed off 312s on my tail, time to skedaddle!

Carly

CURRENT LEADER OF THE RUFUS CHALLENGE: BWils at walker level 312

Jenng

OMG!! It’s like a back woodsy brawl. This is exciting!

5656

OMG....I can't believe what I'm seeing right now!!! Lvl. 312...NO WAY!!
That's insane!

Hey @BWils, if you don't mind, could you share us your survivors and badges you used for the challenge?

And congrats to your record! That is just AWESOME!

tabernac

Holy Mackerel! Congrats @BWils, you may have other challengers but I gotta tap out. I continued my earlier run a little bit more and got to level 222 before I had to exit stage right in order to preserve what little sanity I have left. Well played!

My only hope is that @Jenng recognizes my stamina...

Cheers!

Jenng

Impressed completely = ✔️ @tabernac



Rufus love all around!

Carly

Thanks to all contenders here for making The Rufus Challenge fun to experience!!

We all await to see if anyone can come close to dethroning BWils!!

Come on, bring out your Rufus and moonshine and give The Rufus Challenge a try! You know you want to.

bladgier

@BWils that's absolutely and utterly insane crazy!

Have you got a screenshot of their health?

I don't even get how do you guys do that without being over runned with walkers, is it spawn block that allows you to peacefully kill existing ones with stuns?

Why is the charge `attack description/icon' different for Rufus?

bladgier

@Kratos that's because it's a special weapon Pickle Jar with different charged attack than other normal assault weapons.

Kratos

@bladgier thanks...guess I had never noticed it on a screen shot before.
