Hi everyone.
I’d like to ask about the Battle Pass Battle Trophy and the Hungarian Toldi.
I bought the Battle Pass and paid for all levels up to the Battle Trophy specifically for this tank. Unfortunately, the trophy dropped a Swedish vehicle instead, for a nation I don’t play at all. As a result, that vehicle is just sitting in my hangar completely unused.
This is honestly very frustrating. I spent a significant amount of money, and in the end I didn’t get what I was aiming for. For the same money, I could have bought a top-tier premium aircraft or tank, instead of gambling for a Rank I vehicle like the Toldi and getting something I have zero interest in.
I understand that the reward is random, but is there any possible way to:
• exchange the reward
• get another Battle Trophy
• obtain the Hungarian Toldi in the future (event / shop / other option)?
If anyone has experience or official info, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks.
Personal experience and knowledge and not official information:
Not to my knowledge, the reward is random for everyone and offering an exchange would just make the random reward redundant.
There usually is one in the battle passes, i’'m not sure if there is one every pass but i think more often than not lately at least. But the rewards in that trophy also changes for every battle pass.
It might appear again in future battle pass trophies, it was in the 17’th pass as well (this is current one is the 21’st).
I understand that the reward is random and non-exchangeable, but I still want to explain why this was especially disappointing for me.
I spent around $40 on this Battle Pass. Part of that was because I misunderstood the purchase options — I bought the 2000 Golden Eagles upgrade, thinking I would later be able to buy the 150 Battle Pass levels for 2500 GE, not realizing that these are mutually exclusive options. Because of that mistake, I ended up spending more than I initially planned.
In the end, after that investment, getting a random vehicle for a nation I don’t play at all made me feel honestly cheated and discouraged, especially since I was aiming for a specific Rank I vehicle like the Hungarian Toldi. With the same money, I could have bought a premium vehicle directly instead of relying on RNG.
Knowing that Battle Pass Battle Trophies are fully random and non-tradable, I don’t think I’ll participate in future Battle Passes anymore. I’d rather avoid experiencing the same frustration again, particularly during the holiday season, when I had hoped this would be something enjoyable.
I also hoped there might be an option to sell or trade Battle Pass rewards on the Marketplace, but now I understand that this isn’t possible either.
Thanks for clarifying how it works, even if the outcome is disappointing.
Yeah, i understand the disappointment but i also assume you knew the reward was random before starting to buy your way to the rewards.
Most of the vehicles you can, you just need to also unlock the upgrade towards the end of the battlepass to convert the vehicle coupon from non-tradable to tradable.
Thanks for the clarification. Let me add a bit more context so there’s no misunderstanding.
I’m aware that some Battle Pass vehicles can be sold if they are coupon-based and upgraded to be tradable. That was never my goal and it doesn’t interest me — I’m not trying to make profit or earn money from the game.
What I meant was specifically Battle Trophy vehicles. I was hoping they could be sellable so that other players might list vehicles like the Hungarian Toldi on the Marketplace, allowing me to obtain it there. My interest was only in getting that specific vehicle, not in trading or profit.
I also want to clarify that while I understood the Battle Trophy reward itself was random, part of the frustration comes from a misunderstanding of the Battle Pass purchase options. I bought the 2000 Golden Eagles upgrade, believing I would later be able to additionally purchase the 150 Battle Pass levels for 2500 GE, not realizing these options are mutually exclusive. Because of that mistake, I ended up spending more than I originally planned.
I’m not saying this to shift blame, just to explain why this outcome felt particularly disappointing in my case.
One last thing I’d like to add as general feedback.
If you have any way of passing suggestions to the team, I think situations like this could be avoided in the future by considering a few options:
allowing players to choose a specific vehicle from Battle Trophy rewards instead of full RNG, or
adding a way to obtain removed or rare vehicles again, for example through limited-time events, annual national aviation days, or even as premium purchases.
For example, I would personally be happy to buy vehicles like the Hungarian Toldi or the Italian Ro.57 directly, but there is currently no way to obtain them at all. I even checked during Italian Air Force–related events, hoping it might return temporarily.
I’m not asking for special treatment — just sharing feedback from a player perspective. I believe having clear, non-random or limited-time purchase options for older content would be appreciated by many players.
I sadly do not, if you want to make suggestions for the game you can do so in the suggestion section of the forum, just make sure to follow their rules and guidelines as that section is pre-moderated and only posts that follow their rules will be posted publicly after a couple of weeks and later have a chance to get passed to developers.
This happens regularly through battle pass trophies as well as the silver lion crates (currently the Festive cupcakes for example), those rewards are however also random and the SL crates doesn’t even guarantee a vehicle, a lot of players with years of playtime are still hunting these recurring limited time crates for some collectables they are missing :P
I’ve seen some players spend hundreds of millions in Silver Lions in the hopes for one specific vehicle.
I understand Gaijin wanting some vehicles to not be as easily obtained as otherwise they would lose some of their novelty and players that have historically spent a lot of time and effort getting them would feel cheated if the vehicles later were super easy to get.
I personally agree (as do many others if you read through the comments on the battle pass announcements here on the forum), but i also have no say in development and no contact with the developers so there is sadly nothing i will be able to do about that, your best option is to raise those concerns just as you have here on the forum and create suggestions in that section :)
