Here's how you can complete this challenge and grab the extra loot. Crossfire challenge guide (Scission, second encounter) in the Root of Nightmares raid For the Crossfire encounter challenge, players on one side can't shoot the crystal that toggles the launcher pads on that side. If you're a runner on the Dark side, you'll need another player on the other side to shoot it for you. The same principle applies if you're on the Light side. These conditions include the platforms at the end of each floor. The challenge isn't terrifyingly difficult, but it requires some coordination and readiness from players on both teams. There are a few strategies to complete the objective. The runners can shoot each other's crystals, or each runner can enlist the help of some add-clearing players on the other side. Having the runners shoot for each other ensures they're both on the same page and at the same node required for each floor. Any delays can throw off that order, however, and runners have to be in sync to shoot for each other\u2014or throw off the rhythm if anyone shoots too early or too late. Teams can also rely on add-clear guardians to shoot the crystals, giving the runners some more freedom. Enemies aren't terribly daunting in the regular version of the raid, so shooters can spare some time to destroy the crystals and propel them. There doesn't seem to be a cheese to the Crossfire challenge so far (but keep your eyes peeled on Cheese Forever's channel just in case). Skating, grappling, or just generally soaring across the gap without fulfilling this requirement will fail the challenge. Guardians will have to rely on their teammates to get an extra Pinnacle drop.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023_Root_of_Nightmares_Raid_PressKit_Raid_Compressed_005.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/834663"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1759"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=834663"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/834663\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":834837,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/834663\/revisions\/834837"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/834775"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=834663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=834663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=834663"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=834663"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=834663"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=834663"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=834663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
