Assignments & Challenges

Assignments & Challenges

In Battlefield V, Assignments and Challenges are your primary avenues for earning valuable Company Coin, experience points (XP), and exclusive cosmetic items. Mastering these tasks is crucial for expanding your Company, unlocking new gear, and personalizing your soldier's appearance. This section will guide you through understanding, tracking, and efficiently completing all types of Assignments and Challenges.

Understanding Assignments

Assignments are persistent tasks that you can activate and complete at your own pace. They are categorized into several types, each offering different rewards and requiring distinct approaches. You can track up to four Assignments simultaneously, so always ensure you have active ones before deploying into a match to maximize your earnings.

Types of Assignments:

• Daily Assignments: These refresh every 24 hours and are generally simpler tasks, such as "Get 10 kills with any SMG" or "Capture 3 objectives." They offer a quick boost of Company Coin and XP.
• Special Assignments: These are more complex and long-term, often requiring multiple stages or specific playstyles. Examples include "Achieve 50 headshots with Assault Rifles" or "Heal teammates for 1000 health as a Medic." Special Assignments typically yield larger Company Coin rewards and sometimes unique weapon skins or emblems upon completion.
• Weapon Assignments: Unlocked after reaching a certain proficiency with a specific weapon, these assignments challenge you to perform feats with that weapon, such as "Get 20 kills while prone with the STG 44." Completing these often unlocks special weapon customizations or mastery skins.
• Class Assignments: Similar to Weapon Assignments, these focus on specific class roles. For instance, "Resupply teammates 50 times as a Support" or "Spot 30 enemies as a Recon." Rewards often include class-specific outfits or emblems.

Tracking and Activating Assignments:

1. From the main menu, navigate to the "Career" tab.
2. Select "Assignments."
3. You will see a list of available Assignments. Those marked with a green checkmark are already active.
4. To activate a new Assignment, select it and confirm. Remember, you can only have four active at any given time. Prioritize based on your current playstyle or desired rewards.
5. Once active, your progress will be tracked in-game and displayed on the end-of-round screen.

Conquering Challenges

Challenges are distinct from Assignments primarily due to their time-limited nature and often higher-tier rewards. They frequently coincide with in-game events, Tides of War chapters, or seasonal updates. Missing a Challenge means missing out on its unique rewards, so staying informed is key.

Types of Challenges:

• Weekly Challenges (Tides of War): These are the most common type of Challenge, appearing as part of the ongoing Tides of War chapters. They are typically multi-stage, with each stage unlocking new rewards (e.g., weapon unlocks, vehicle skins, soldier outfits). Completing the final stage often grants a unique weapon or cosmetic.
• Event Challenges: Occasionally, special in-game events will introduce unique Challenges for a limited duration. These can range from holiday-themed tasks to community goals.
• Community Challenges: Less frequent, these challenges require the entire player base to collectively achieve a goal (e.g., "All players collectively get 10 million headshots"). Successful completion rewards all participating players.

Accessing and Completing Challenges:

1. From the main menu, navigate to the "Tides of War" tab.
2. Here, you will see the current chapter and its associated weekly challenges.
3. Challenges are presented as a linear progression path. Complete the current task to unlock the next.
4. Rewards are automatically granted upon completion of each stage.
5. Pay close attention to the timer displayed for each Challenge chain, as they expire and cannot be completed afterward.

Strategy & Tips for Efficient Completion

General Strategies:

• Prioritize & Plan: Before entering a match, review your active Assignments and the current Challenges. Can you work on multiple at once? For example, if you need SMG kills for a Daily Assignment and objective captures for a Weekly Challenge, play as an Assault or Medic and focus on aggressive objective play.
• Game Mode Selection: Certain game modes are better suited for specific tasks.
  • Conquest/Breakthrough: Excellent for objective-based assignments, vehicle kills, and general combat.
  • Team Deathmatch/Frontlines: Good for pure kill-count assignments.
  • Grand Operations: Offers several scenarios, good for diverse assignments but can be lengthy.
• Class & Loadout Optimization: Equip weapons, gadgets, and specializations that directly contribute to your active tasks. If you need LMG kills, play Support. If you need revives, play Medic with the syringe equipped.
• Squad Play: Playing with a coordinated squad can significantly speed up progress, especially for objective captures, revives, and resupplies. Communicate your goals!
• Don't Force It: While efficiency is good, don't let Assignments ruin your enjoyment of the game. If a task is proving frustrating, switch to another or take a break.

Common Pitfalls & Missables:

• Inactive Assignments: Always double-check that the Assignments you intend to complete are actually active. Progress won't count otherwise.
• Misreading Requirements: Pay close attention to specific conditions. "Kills while prone" is different from "kills from cover." "Headshots with a bolt-action rifle" is more specific than "sniper kills."
• Time-Limited Challenges: The biggest missable. If you want the rewards from a Tides of War chapter or event, you MUST complete the challenges before they expire.
• Weapon/Class Specifics: Ensure you're using the correct weapon type or playing the correct class. A "pistol kill" won't count if you're using a sidearm that's technically a revolver.
