They can’t be completed currently. There are some topics on the bug that go more in-depth on the issue. “Lore Challenges and YOU” is the official thread.
Some of them can’t be completed, right? Obviously not all as I have completed Reyna’s.
The ones that were affected by the recent patch, I think. I’m not quite sure what the exact bug is but my Lore Challenges don’t track progress at all.
I couldn’t find the thread.
Getting somewhat deadlier with Thorn!
Took out a couple sentries ninja style and got some oh so sweet sniper kills from the perches in Monuments and Snowblind.

Speaking of Thorn, finally got her (my first character) to rank 15, but have none of her PvP lore challenges even started since I’m still scared at CR 21 to even delve into Versus Public with less than optimal PvP gear on a character that’s expected to wreck house.
Instead, started working on re-learning Miko since I did well with him during the beta. Had a ridiculous Versus Private match against all bots where my team’s Whiskey Foxtrot annihilated the other team for 21 kills and I assisted on 15 of them just by following him around keeping him alive, was kinda nuts. Getting heal assists seems so effortless, could see getting on a good team and doing those assist challenges so quickly once I finally get into Versus Public.

I see little need to be so afraid of PvP matches. I just dive in.
I seem to do my best when I’m playing as Reyna. Because I am really good at providing support apparently.
I prefer PvE mostly but in battleborn I enjoy all modes.
I am a total newbie so I have been playing Normal PvE to get acclimated. I like Thorne so I play with her a lot. But I only have five or so hours in.
But I hate this game got a bad rap. It is great!
Welcome to Solus! 
PS: Ghost in the Shell FTW!
Learned that Meltdown is AMAZING!!! I do alot better than in Incursion and I´ve no idea how and why 
Can´t wait to dive throgh the Outskirts with that glorous music again!

I did an Algorithm run as the last run of the Lootpocalypse (haven’t played since as I’m a little burned out honestly). I got a sub-max Plasmite Transducer. Haven’t sold it yet but probably will. If it’s not max stats, I ain’t paying 1800 shards to use it.
Agreed on all accounts, got my first gold on a normal Archive mission earlier. Dare I try solo advanced hardcore for the lore challenge? Hmmm…
Isn’t it though? To me it’s the mode with the least emphasis on actual FPS fighting between players, more about map control (i.e. utilizing shards for building defensive buildables and regular attacks/skills/ults for destroying the opponent’s buildables).
Wish we played on the same platform to team up, but pretty sure you’re not PS4.
I see your point and tend to agree, but when you don’t have anything better for the slot then why not use it? For example, I have a non-max Stout Golemic Sigil (rare) and a non-max Codex Fragment (legendary); I’m still using the CF because it’s generally better in all situations with the stats I have now.

Finished my third rank 15 (Whiskey Foxtrot), adding to Benedict and Oscar Mike. Started with 150 XP to go to rank 15. First match, Algorithm, finished with 75 XP. 75 more to go. Nice. Dropped into Void’s Edge. Took my sweet time hitting up all the loot chests, let the swarmers nibble on Wolfie for a while. Etc. 70 XP. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! I needed five more XP to finish. DEWD! So, dropped back into Algorithm for 3:18, just the first lane. Jump off (hardcore) and die out. Got EXACTLY 5 XP for it, and just enough command XP to put me at rank 61 as well (needed 2 XP after the previous match). So I have earned EXACTLY 2480 XP on WF ever. Took 35 matches, 22:07 time in game, all solo PvE. Every mission except Heliophage.
Also, picked up H3NCHM4N’s Capacitor (junk), Sentinel Reset Switch (junk), and Plasmite Transducer (meh) as well as some other decent gear. Earned a few thousand credits; now that LootPoc is over, I can focus on buying more bank space and loadouts.
Also once again proved myself wrong about a helix choice for WF. Turns out, I prefer the other option to the Scrap Bank. The one that reveals enemies, who then take increased damage from the rifle for like 8 seconds afterward? Together with WF’s passive, and with a rifle that’s already more powerful (or so it seems) than OM’s, it wrecks. Works on bosses just fine. Pop scrap on 'em, hit the ult button, unload ridiculous overdrive RoF into their critical hit spots. LAUGH, make it RAIN loot… Quite satisfying. My Number Three for solo PvE so far (sorry, just can’t quite get used to Caldarius’s jumping mechanics so far).
(PS4) A little closer to getting level 15 and finishing off Shayne and Aurox, today.
Played two storymodes, the sentinel and voids edge.
Wasn’t being matched with full teams in public matchmaking though. Advanced queue went no where for me, so had to try normal.
Had 2 players matched for the sentinel, but they quit out in the character select menu so I had to go it alone, sigh.
But I had one other player stick with me for voids edge, thanks to whomever you were, I do like the company even if we didn’t speak, haha.
Should be done tomorrow, if I don’t find myself distracted by something else.
I’m not sure what’s come over me, but I can’t seem to find the motivation for PvP at the moment.
Well, I think it might be that I’ve been scared off by some unpleasant random mic users… Must face my fears and try again, sometime.
@elle_tee
That’s right, Face your fears! Grab that mic and scare them back!
On Topic. I farmed the hell out of chapter 7 advance mode for the legendary gear “boots of brute”. Unfortunately I did it after the event was over for increased drop rate. I stopped counting after my 21th try but I finally got it!

Stomped a team 3v5 in Meltdown on Paradise. I partied up with 2 friends and we paired up with a team (playing split screen). As soon as our match started, the pair quit. So at this point, it was 3v5 Caldarius (me), El Dragon, and Miko against Isaac, Alani, Galilea, Oscar, and Rath.
Enemy team tried to divide themselves up so that they could easily watch both lanes, something that would be impossible for 3 people to do against 5. We were lucky enough to be playing 3 extremely mobile characters. We stuck together the entire match focusing on the shepherd minion that grants the overshield. We would take it out and then gang up on the opposing players before they could out our shepherd. Then we let the minions clear minions. We didn’t devote any money to gear and instead put all our money in buying the elite bots to constantly load the lanes. It started off as a struggle, first 10 minutes the enemy team had a solid 100points+ on us. The 2 people we paired with joined back after noticing we were still playing. They saw we were losing and left. Once the 3 of us hit level 5, that’s when we really turned the game around, and when we really started pressing hard with the big bots. After taking a considerable lead, I think we were passed 350 to the other teams 250 something, the pair joined back for a second time. They realized that we were actually pulling this game off, and so they stayed. They were back for about 5 minutes before the game was over.
End result: Enemy team didn’t break 300. It’s all about communication, and the other team didn’t have it.

Had a player leave our team and still almost beat the other team, who were all level 100s.
We were 4 level 70-80s and my 100.
Overgrowth.
If our 5th had stayed, we would have won 
I definitely do better in Meltdown or Capture than Incursion. Also not sure why.
