How do i get this skin? Honestly? Ive played Hard/Long bedlam for QUITE a while and i still haven't got him.

My biggest problem is that, my team usualy takes the Scrake. A berserker just jumps in and cuts his head off. Or a Sharpshooter blows it up.

This is taking UNBELIVABLE time, and i really mean long time. Is there any way to get it easier .. Perhaps? I really want to skin. And im pretty sure the Halloween update will end quite soon. :(

There you can download faked players mutator. It is whitelisted so it can be very helpful in practicing and leveling on your own.

It didn't take me long at all to get the chicken. I played long/hard on solo, and got all the achievements except the scrake one and burning decap, then played a suicidal game with a bunch of randoms and got the remaining scrakes that I needed and the other ach. Took me 2 games.

I'm struggling to win Bedlam on long/hard. The best perks I have are two level 4 ones.

Well either way, on a map like Bedlam i cant even make it.

There are TOO MANY zombies, and the only high level perk i have is Medic. Well .. Guess im not going to get the chicken.

Playing 10 Waves of A hard/long gave me 2 more scrakes on the bar ... Woo how fun.

What level is your sharp, support, or zerker? All are very good at killing scrakes on hard difficulty. (At high enough level: ) sharp can one shot them with a crossbow headshot, support can easily kill them with either the aa12, or with a single double barrel blast once they're raging, and zerker can chain stun them with the katana by just holding primary fire (aim for the head to kill twice as fast).

On the very first long hard game i played since the halloween event started, I got 15 scrakes while playing support.

What wave did you get up to and what perk/level were you using? I know when I did it, I killed 9 scrakes. I used lvl 6 support on the balcony where they barely come from 1 way.

But for the mutator, it wouldn't really be considered grinding, per se. Just leveling a different way. My brother leveled his beserker by faking 6 players and kiting many many zeds around the map.

I got all the achievements apart from scrakes in 1 bedlam game

I don't know why you are complaining about scrakes being taken by SS / Zerker, THEY ARE THE CLASSES YOU USE TO TAKE THEM DOWN.

I got 18 / 25 in that 1 game, I plan to join a random game tonight as SS and finish off the other 7 scrakes.

Just go as SS, if you are level 5 it should be 1 xbow hit and blamo!

My Sharpshooter is level 2 and my Support is Zero.

I don't grind classes, i play the ones that i only find fun. There is no need for me to play a Sharpshooter or Support if i find them both equaly **** and boring.

Im a Level 6 medic, its the only class i play because its the most fun one. And the bonuses i get are really good.

I got up to the last wave once, but it was rather boring.

I'm not telling you to grind or play anything you don't want to. I'm just suggesting the easiest classes to get scrake kills with. If you're trying to do it with a medic, then it's not surprising you're having so much trouble, because they don't have bonuses to killing things, they have bonuses to survival.

That said, I'm surprised you can't beat bedlam on beginner difficulty offline? Even as a medic (in fact especially as medic) that should be exceedingly easy to solo. And using faked players to simply increase the number of mobs (you don't HAVE to set it to 6 players, you could make it just 2 or 3 if it's too much trouble for you).

Yes i had it on 6. And already on the begining there were 63 zombies all around me. A bit too much eh?

Other then that, im no good with any other class. Ive tried so hard with Commando, Support and all that but NOPE. Doesnt work.

I just start missing my epic running speed as medic, my good ol' big clip for the MP7 and my discounts. Which no other class really is good at.

You don't have to get the Scrake kills in a long game. In short games, they spawn on wave three!

As a Field Medic, you are not going to get many Scrake kills in a multiplayer game - that's just the way it is. But if you don't mind getting them solo, pack a Crossbow. You won't kill them as easily with it as a Sharpshooter would, but on Hard difficulty and below a Crossbow headshot will stun a Scrake regardless of your perk, so it's definitely the safest option. (On higher difficulties, it'd be a really bad option, but that's for another time.) Your speed, armour and healing bonuses will make it easy for you to simply avoid the Scrakes until you can kill them in relative peace, or at least put some distance between the two of you first in case you become distracted or miss.

Just a few days ago my friends were playing on Sui/ESL with me, right.

And a few of said friends had the chicken skin, right.

And one of said friends was playing the Chicken Dance through his microphone.

Hilarity ensued.

Also no, it's not too long IMO, you just need to put in a little more effort, maybe focus your playing or co-ordinating with your team to get them.

I have lvl 5 medic and I kill scrakes all the time on normal and hard with a cross bow. I've been known to kill skrakes with off-perk LAR too. Just play on normal as a medica and buy an xbow and headshot every scrake you see. Most of the time on normal players have no idea what to do when a scrake shows up anyway so you wont have to worry too much about people stealing your kills.
