[QUOTE="Eternal21, post: 290660, member: 7302"] YES! I'm finally done with this dumb wizard goal, on a table with the broken skill shot. NEVER AGAIN Farsight Devs! NEVER AGAIN! Skill shots occur at the following timestamps. Coincidentally enough, none of them required a nudge, all just slid right into the hole: 0:12 5:30 11:25 14:30 It took me 35 days of sweat and constant disappointment to get this stupid goal done. The skillshot is completely luck dependent. There was a time I would get 3 skillshots on my 1st ball, and then couldn't land the last one on next 6 balls. I've had days where I got 3 skillshots on ten separate occasions, and still couldn’t close the deal. That was 3 weeks ago. Based on that I knew it would happen eventually, I just didn't realize it would take another month to get it done. I've had dozens of approaches. I would play games where I would restart if I didn't get two skill shots in a row. I would play games where I would try to use pause trick, and pull the plunger before the ball got a chance to settle on top of it so the shot would be more consistent (it never was). In the end I settled on just flicking the right stick to accomplish an underpowered shot. Never bothered with careful adjustment because the stupid table physics would still completely randomize it despite the pull being pixel perfect. In the end I got proficient enough where I could score the extra ball via loops on a regular basis, which gave me that one extra shot I needed in the final game. It took 3 hill runs and 2 extra balls, so about 9 shots. This table can go f itself. Especially after BS you can witness at 11:00 mark. The table tilts after a single nudge. And I've seen it on numerous occasions where one ball is locked. Good job Farsight! Nudging is crucial here, and you don't even let us do that when it matters! This is the hardest goal in Pinball Arcade. End of story. I've got 3 tables left (Spanish Eyes, Wipe Out and Pistol Poker), but I just can't believe they can be harder than this disaster of a table.
