Navel battlepass challenges are not only hard but most of the time almost impossible. This battle pass has you kill 10 players or bots using torpedeos in battles which is almost impossible because to even get close enough to hit anyone before they kill you is a challenge harder than grinding the italian ground tree without premiums. These battle pass navel challeneges make people HATE NAVEL even moire than most do and just because it makes some people play it for the battle pass doesnt mean anyone likes it. REMOVE ALL NAVEL BATTLEPASS CHALLENGES.

Automated AA guns need their reaction times nerfed, an artificial means to mimic human reaction time. Since they are supposed to be representing manned AA guns.
Anyway I feel your pain. It took me entirely too long to “just” make 10 torp kills.
And using DDs to spam torps only worked like 3 times I think. The remaining 7 I had to do in planes and it took me days. DAYS. For 7 specific kills.

They could probably do with making them easier. But naval shouldnt be excluded from the BP.
Personally I would love for ground to be removed from the BP and then maybe Id bother trying to do it

They were nerfed last major quite a bit and not always. HMS Vanguards for example are unmanned
Torpedoes can have ranges of 20km - this one was trivial - much easier than getting 15 Intelligence awards for which I had to relearn how to play GRB! :p
Same as land and air awards for people who don’t usually play those modes
Cry some more.

Firstly, I do agree — I don’t like being forced to complete Naval challenges. It hits players twice: first, they fail that particular challenge, and second, they also miss out on completing the “all challenges” requirement for the battle pass, which means they lose a lot of battle pass points.
However, this Torpedo challenge I managed to complete in one night — mostly through luck. Here’s what I did:
I was fortunate enough to have the Shimikaze. I entered Arcade Battles at a time when there were both bot players and a map with bot ships sitting in their spawn.
In my first round of torpedoes, I targeted only the bot players, since they were unlikely to dodge. Then I flanked their spawn, where the bot ships (not players — these are more like mission AI ships) were sitting still, and I fired two torpedoes at each of them. I died before my torpedoes landed, but when the round ended, I got 3–4 kills each match.
Hopefully this helps you.
I found the the kill aircraft with user AA on ships from the last BP far more difficult.
What really needs to be done is the lowering of Naval tasks to include Rank II. Due to the split of Naval between Coastal and Bluewater, and the insistence of developers to maintain long total research times per tree in naval, Naval rank III is effectively the equivalent of rank IV or V for ground. So it is illogical to demand rank III for such tasks, especially when a diverse set of ships exists at rank II.

I mean… getting “Intelligence” is literally just looking at people and clicking on the spot button…
Killing someone with a torpedo from 20km away however… let’s not pretend that’s easier than clicking on top of someone xD

I feel you. The only reason I’m able to get through naval challenges is because I’ve reached top tier in Germany, Russia, Japan and US coastal. Would’ve been a gigantic pain in the butt otherwise
get yourself a (tier III) Type 93 delivery system and you should be grand, none of them are particularly hard to get (or expensive)
once you have one its a case of spamming them at the enemy spawns/chokepoints and wait (or J out and hop into the next battle to repeat the procedure)
But also for the record this isn’t agreement that I think naval BP challenges should be removed. I don’t.
Well now that the thread was killed I want to say again NO I DO NOT AGREE TO REMOVE THE CHALLENGES. And no I don’t “hate” get 10 torp kills. It’s just annoying that’s all.
Destroying 10 targets using torpedoes is not exactly the hardest task, but almost the opposite one of the easiests since most maps are point blank engagements unless you’re playing Enduring Confrontation which are usually restricted to English Channel and maps alike. These challenges don’t need to be removed, as it’s named: Challenges meant to be something harder than dealing a few damages or destroying three to five players.
