JtP: I must be missing something.

(1/5) > >>

Yiab:
Journey to Perfection missions with anti-air homing missiles are killing me every time, and practice doesn't seem to be helping. I beat one outdoor JtP mission and now no matter where I find one it has homing missiles. I've tried using my level 4 fire shield to absorb the damage, and I inevitably either miss starting it by a tenth of a second and get hit by a bat or something, or it winds up running out in the middle of a firestorm. I think I must be missing something here, what am I supposed to do about these homing missiles?
(For those of you unfamiliar with the homing missiles, the launchers haven't been damaged by anything I've thrown at them and the missiles themselves explode in a giant fireball when shot down in flight).

Penumbra:
They are there to discourage use of "ride the lightning" double jump spell. The missiles will only fire at you if you use it. Double or triple jump enchants are safe, just not the flight spells.

mrhanman:
Just don't use Ride the Lightning.  That's what triggers the homing missiles.  Other than that, there is a thread from yesterday or the day before that give some pointers to help complete the missions.  I was having trouble, too, but the guys helped me out.  The biggest help was a stealth enchant.  I can't remember what they're called in game exactly, but if you've been playing for any length of time, you should have run up on one.

I'm not sure why RtL is penalized, but double/triple jumps and teleport are OK.  But in any case, I found it was far too easy to accidentally activate RtL and get failed when I wasn't trying to use RtL at all, so what I started doing was dropping the RtL spellgem outside the mission area before I started it.

I was initially worried about losing it that way (and actually did, one time), but you can always get another one for free back at the settlement. 

lunarknight64:
Using the bat form will also cause the missles to fire
that being said, I still find bat the best way to complete outdoor perfect missions
but cloak of shadows always helps
