I need to do some more testing on this matter but I can already say that this is massively bugged out. First of all - I'm not sure I understand how this challenge is supposed to work: Should You be level 1 without any talent points and reduced health to match the hp on lvl 1? Should You be level 1 with talent points available to match adventure's level? (11 [13 max] - so 7 white talents) So only your health is reduced to match the hp on lvl 1? Now here's another problem: when you select the challenge: all your levels are reduced to 1. If you click straight away 'begin adventure' - without changing ANY items on your party (so if you properly gear them up for the said adventure - let's say you've done no party death first) you will be taken into challenge and you can complete it - in fact what will happen is only your health being reduced to match lvl's 1 hp, but you still retain all your talent points for the adventure's level (7 white in this case). However if you click on ANY of your characters - you will get talents refund and you wont be able to start adventure until you change all items to non-talent ones. Please explain me how is this supposed to work! Edit: When you fail challenge after starting right away with 'begin adventure' you WILL NOT be able to re-try or restart adventure as party is not "Card Hunter Ceritified" (items are locked as in previous case)
During the 1st battle you can abuse items with talent cost and use them - after finishing the 1st battle you are in fact given 0 talent points - which leads to either swapping out all items or changing them to no-talent cost items. Another interesting finding: even that can be abused if you happen to open the chest and start the battle without looting any items. There's around 4-5 bugs in this topic so I will need to explain it much better. Seems to affect all reduce to level 1 challanges
Added this to our bug list. It sounds like the party check when first entering the adventure isn't checking the talent requirements correctly.
It was Goblins in the Woods. Altough it seems all those challanges 'suffer' from the same bug. What I have figured out so far: 'reduced to lvl 1' means that adventure level is set to 1, so you can have characters up to lvl 3 (you gain health as you were lvl 3 as long as your true level is 3 or higher). Regarding items bug: it always happen on the 1st map, if you equip your characters adequately to adventure level (11) - so up to lvl 13 character you can 'sneak' in and do the 1st map with all items - as long as you don't click on any of your characters during the screen where you're able to change your items. On 2+ map your lvl is corrected - so suddenly you lose all talent points as it should have been from the start. (this is working as intended, I guess)
