Report back about the challenge.
Sam was thrilled, but told me to come back and try again... because you can never have too much fun.

Walkthrough

On a rooftop settlement in central Downtown, to the southeast of the Downtown Court Metro Station, a man named Sam can be found. Sam claims that gambling is one of life's greatest pleasures, and that while it is just cards now, it used to be more crazy when the Nightrunners were still around. He states that there used to be a training course of the Nightrunners which was used to test the skills of recruits with the Grappling Hook. Sam and his other gamblers would place bets on who would fall first.

In light of the Nightrunners being long-gone, Sam asks Aiden to try the course for himself and see if he can beat the times of those who finished the course. The challenge is centered around this course, and is parkour-centered. It features fourteen checkpoints. Three different medals can be earned:

  • Gold: beat the challenge within one minute and fifty seconds. (1000 Parkour XP)
  • Silver: beat the challenge within two minutes and ten seconds. (500 Parkour XP)
  • Bronze: beat the challenge within two minutes and thirty seconds. (250 Parkour XP)

Speak to Sam again after completing the challenge to finish the quest.
