Death Clock Challenge in Doom: The Dark Ages
To complete this challenge, you need to kill both of the Cosmic Baron demons within 5 seconds of each other. They are the large ones with fast, slashing melee attacks. The easiest way to accomplish this is to weaken them both first, then kill them quickly, best by a quick shot from a crossbow, which will kill them instantly. Just make sure to leave one crossbow arrow in reserve.
How to Complete the Death Clock Challenge in Doom: The Dark Ages
Make your way through the entrance until you see the second red enemy encounter. To initiate the battle, perform a shield bash to the arm of the demon. For this task, you must slay two Cosmic Barons within 5 seconds. These are the ones with quick melee attacks with their slicing arms. When the first one comes, do not kill it immediately; wait for the second one to arrive. Next, use the crossbow to kill them both instantly. This will automatically unlock the “Challenge Completed” trophy and grant you the Reverent – Pulverizer skin.
The Cosmic Baron will attempt to charge towards you immediately, occasionally following it up with a ground smash attack that can be parried. When it comes close, it strikes at you three times in a hurry with its bladed arms, you’ll have to parry each of them to make it stumble. At other times, it also attacks from a distance by firing psionic purple projectiles at you. One pattern shoots a few low rings, you can parry one of them. The other is a wide energy wall with a parryable spot in the center, you’ll need to move into position to hit that spot and reflect the attack back at the Baron.
