One of the first villains you'll encounter in Marvel's Midnight Suns is the alien symbiote, Venom. Due to Venom's constant conflict with Spider-Man, Mr. Friendly Neighborhood himself decides to join your team in the fight against Lilith and her horde of demons. Of course, this means that Spider-Man will have his very own Challenge Mission for you to try at the Forge.
Challenge Missions are more like puzzles rather than typical missions in the game. Clearing a Challenge Mission will reward you with a legendary skin and a legendary heroic card for the associated hero. Spider-Man's Challenge Mission is called Wall Crawler.
How To Unlock Spider-Man's Challenge Mission
While every Challenge Mission is unlocked individually, you'll need to make a few additions to the Abbey before you can access them. The first thing you'll need to do is have Ghost Rider join you on four missions. Any type of mission will do, both general missions and story missions will count towards this. Once that's taken care of, a research project called Forged in Hellfire will become available. Select Forged in Hellfire and wait one day for it to complete. When the research is done, have the Armory built for 175 Credits and Challenge Missions will become an option at the Forge.
Now it's time to start working on your Friendship Level with Spider-Man. There will be plenty of opportunities to speak with Peter Parker throughout the game, so remember to be nice to him in general and try to tell him he's doing a good job as often as you can to earn some extra Friendship XP. If you get a chance to join Peter in a Hangout, keep in mind that he likes watching movies, playing video games and stargazing. These activities will give you more Friendship XP compared to any of the other options. Spider-Man's Challenge Mission will become available at the Forge when you reach Friendship Level 5 with him.
How To Clear Wall Crawler
The objective for Spider-Man's Challenge Mission is to defeat all enemies and obtain the Infernal Spider card. There will be one Incarnation of Memory and three Whispers of Memory on the field for this mission. You'll also find three objects on the battlefield to take advantage of Spider-Man's specialty of utilizing environmental attacks.
During Wall Crawler, you'll have an unlimited amount of Card Plays but Redraw will be restricted. Moves are allowed, but you'll start the challenge with zero. Refer to the image above and follow these steps to clear the Challenge Mission:
Step | Details |
|---|---|
1 | Use Opportunist. |
2 | Move Spider-Man in front of Object 2 so that he lines up with the Incarnation and Whisper A. |
3 | Kick Object 2 to knock the Incarnation into Whisper A. |
4 | Move Spider-Man to the left of Object 1, lining him up with the three remaining enemies. |
5 | Use Object 1 to knock the Incarnation into Whisper B. |
6 | Use Special Delivery+ to knock Whisper C into the Incarnation. |
7 | Move Spider-Man to line him up with Object 3 and the Incarnation. |
8 | Using Object 3 should knock the Incarnation into a wall, eliminating it. |
9 | Use Infernal Spider and three cards will be drawn. |
10 | Destroy the Black Crystal and clear the mission by using these three cards in any order. |
Wall Crawler Rewards
Clearing Spider-Man's Challenge Mission will reward you with his legendary Midnight Suns skin along with his legendary heroic card, Infernal Spider.
Using Infernal Spider will cost four Heroism and make the next three Spider-Man cards free to use, meaning they won't consume any Card Plays. This is a great way for Spider-Man to build up more Heroism for the team while taking out a few enemies in the process. However, Infernal Spider also has the Exhaust trait, so you'll only be able to use it once per battle.
