Yesterday i killed 4 players - 4 count. Today after my death i kill one but it don’t count. It is player for 100% it is when i take another boat after i was killed…
Marne isn’t a destroyer, it’s a “frigate”. A coastal vessel with a blue water spawn.

uhh thx, my mistake. For players which have problem with challenge. Arcade Battles + naval 3.7 + III tier torpedoboat work amazing in event players, 7 torpedos 5 kills from 6km afer spawn :)

that how I did it but I used a much faster lower BR coastal boat at 2.3 rank 3 to complete mine.
i using italian or german battle pass 2.7 boats. German is fast, but he have 8 torpedos, Italian is fast too, have only 2 big torpedoes but they are faster than german (250 km/h italian and 150 km/h german)
i hate these torpedo related battlepass challenge, colossal waste of time, bad enough they limit kills to only bluewater vessels when their maps are designed like that

i recommend this boat for it at AB u have torps with 378km/h 300kg mass
Do as I do, don’t bother with tasks you dislike. I was going to skip this challenge, but then changed my mind after I gave it a try. I still have two tank related tasks on my omission list. And I am not going to complain to the tank folks about the tasks. They probably do them just fine.
Edit: I since accept the T3 arcade task “Whaleman” for daily tasks. Had it today, first spawn, first torpedo, done! Learning is an option.

So just shooting this out here, I mean don’t get me wrong. I don’t fully care for boats in this game but at times it can be fun. But with this task, anyone know if it is better to do in RB or AB. Because ik I’m being ripped apart trying to get this task done
Probably AB due to getting torpedo reloads and having ship markers to identify targets.
Also if u use PT boats at BB BR you’ll often get the big circle maps - no cover for you, but none for htem either, and target rich environment :)
I ended up doing it almost by accident - had 2 kills from somewhere, next time I looked had 8!! :) Then used the S-701 E-boat (the one with 8 torps and 4 tubes - 2 forward 2 aft) and got the last 2 in a couple of games while also doing the task to get 20k score using vehicles from the BP.
AB works just fine. At 3.7 US.
I completed this challenge using the German 6.0 ships Admiral Hipper, which have torpedoes with a 14 km range.
No you didn’t - it requires using coastal boats - any kills by DD or cruiser torpedoes don’t count

Yes I used the same (edited my previous post as I had the wrong ship number) at BB level games - 8 torpedoes was very good
he only downside I’ve found with the S-701 is the rear-facing torpedoes, which force you to turn around to fire and then be able to reload all 8 torpedoes again. I still hope that in the near future it’ll be possible to redirect them either in the hangar or during ship selection choosing where the torpedoes will be positioned and fired from.
That would avoid having to turn the whole ship around just to launch torpedoes from the opposite side of the hull. I think that in real combat situations, they would quickly reposition torpedoes to the side where the enemy is.
I would use the 2 rear tubes while the front tubes were reloading the on-board reloads, and vice versa - turning and shooting took about as long as reloading so no wasted time
why did they remove the ability to kill bots to complete the challenge I only ever get 3 real people on the enemy team every game with 20 bots of bodyguards surrounding them tf am I supposed to do to complete the challenge now?
Same way the rest of us did it - kill those 3 people a lot.
