Honestly, I really don't give a flying albatross about this objective... however, if hunting Objectives "Early", you may try the Tier IV map method getting Sneaky / Treasure Pest @ level 10+.

+X% Swarm does NOT help you get this objective based on my own solo playing, I hate this modifier on maps, it is annoying as fudge.

Now, Sneaky / TP objectives are 13 & 15 while Hack is level 10+, and since a Tier IV map is large enough to have a % chance to activate it, it seems ideal, however, with a normal catacomb and backtracking, it can activate Hack objective vs a Map that does not spawn any monsters back tracking.

Honestly... these objectives need to have a higher % chance to spawn within their level range, you get jack out of the bonuses really... wow... +50 to 100 hit points, what is that, like 1 hit @ level 58 and boom means jack shit.

As for your question, once you hit level 10 and have opened up Hack objective, create a game, and either whistle or back trackl to see if you get that objective... you maybe surprised you whistled all the way to Master Quest and it never appeared... wtf is up with that shit? Test it out.

I love explore (and also whistling solo is too boring for me) and I tend to complete all catas I start so sometimes backtracking or not I found horde and well that's how I get it. I like gathering objectives but yea sometimes I MQ and I have only completed 2 objectives in total, and sometimes 6 or more...

Idk how you do this (?) I know I'm just a noob so maybe the answer is obvious and yet I cannot realize it (never tried that before)

Edit: I mean, I am thinking about my luck, with which I find no wells when I need them, no objectives when I'm looking for them, no good items etc u get the point xD and as finding objectives seems veeeeery random, I imagine it all comes down to luck, or is there any secret or change when you open a IV map to make those objectives? is there more chances to find these objectives in a map, or again it's just all about luck? :blink:

i can see just going for whatever obj.'s pop up, but explore the maze you can literally do at level 1 and its like a 3x3 map or something very small :rofl: :wacko:

I run into it without even trying, doesn't seem at all difficult to trigger. Can even trigger while whistling.

The easiest way is to start a level 10 map at level 10, this will spawn it at 13-14ish.
