All of them involve killing things. Some of the things are stronger than others. Beyond that, the differences are miniscule.
Most of them involve EP mobs ("evil presence") which are sometimes way harder than regular ones. Sneaky Shell is one giant monster who has mega life and does mass damage, from what I hear. And the mirror maze is like explore the maze except billions of times more difficult (I think it has only been completed once or twice, or maybe more than that but not very many times). It doesn't really matter though, because in my opinion the only ones which give worthwhile rewards is explore the maze, pinch of evil, and mirror maze. All the other ones seem so trivial compared those three.
As to how to accomplish them, basically you just play lots of 5 player catacombs games with people who have good gear. It would also help a lot if you had good gear as well
gear is really what most of it comes down to. Especially mirror maze, it would be impossible to complete that without mass preparation and the right gear/group.
This...
Soften the Sneaky Shell is 1 Evil Presence... 90% of your damage reads like "0" and he hits like a normal Evil Presence of the given level of the cata level at that time.
I like 4 of the Objectives (reason being... it helps my Melee/Heal Monk in many ways)
Maze = 1-2 Extra Equipment Slots
Pinch = +1 Stat Point
Hack = 50-100 Max Life
Seven = 50-100 Max Mana

What was not said... if you are in a full cata group... you come across (example: Pinch = 5-6 EPs) and one of your members die or leave during combat... and the other players complete it... YOU will not receive the objective... group has to be 5...
