here is one stroke with 100% black. opacity, flow, etc at 100%

layer is normal

the layer opacity is 100%

layer fill is 100%

 

but still, I have to brush 3-4 times to make it 100% black. 

 

I have reset preferences.

it's the latest Photoshop CC. 

 

this makes my job creating masks that require NO opacity very hard.

What is a Mask without Opacity supposed to be exactly? Do you mean that the Masks should effectively be 1bit (so that each pixel is either fully solid or fully hidden)?

Then you should probably not be using the Brush Tool but the Pencil Tool.
