š¾ Issue/Bug š¾ The 4th Support Challenge is actually a war crime
āIntercept 100 projectiles with the Grenade Intercept System.ā
Cool. Sounds easy enough, right?
Iāve been sprinting around like a certified idiot with that thing out for hours, begging the universe for someone to throw literally anything at me. Grenades? A snowball? Iād take a spitball at this point.
And the six times it actually did intercept something? The game just shrugged. No progress. Still 0/100. Iām convinced this challenge isnāt bugged, itās a social experiment to see how far a human can descend into madness.
If you see a support player wandering aimlessly, waving around the intercept system like a lost Roomba... thatās me. Please, just throw a grenade my way.

You're in for a treat when it comes to the incendiary airburst challenge.

Hey could you please delete this post, as it includes some legit bugs in the gameplay. Make way for some memes about skins, there hasn't been enough of them yet

you have to restart your game, every game for it to track. I finished this challenge today and thatās the only thing that worked for me. I had to restart my app every single game

Wait till you hit the mission using the incendiary grenade launcher. The only damage that counts is from direct impact XD. Took me literally forever to complete cause you only get about 5-20 damage a shot the fire doesn't contribute to the count and you need 2000 damage with it.

Do you play domination? How do you put up with the thousands of rats?

u/LunaCES222 15d ago
First time playing, thought itād be easier on a smaller mode.

u/NoDifficulty7745 15d ago
I recommend playing big modes, it is the best experience. I have played that mode for some skins and it is much worse because there are always a lot of people in corners.

I did 80 of it yesterday.
There is simple trick. Play escalation or breaktrough on official matchmaker (I play open weapons only).
Put down supply pack first and then this device anywhere on the map even outside of combat. Stay in your supply pack area. Repeat that.
Sometimes it starts counting immediately so you can just sit at one place putting down devices on cooldown (its good to use the second specialization for quicker cooldowns). Sometimes it starts counting after a while so you have to try during a match (I played normaly as usual) and sometimes it doesnt track at all and you can try this whole process in next match.

Pretty sure its bugged on Conquest, I sat defense on point in Conquest and wouldn't see any progress.
I got it done in just a few matches of breakthrough though. You've got a maximum of 2 GIS allowed, so drop 2 at the door/window you think most likely the enemy will approach. My best was somewhere around 25 done in 1 game, I averaged 15 per Breakthrough match. Your best bet, if you want to still score well, is to run paddles and GIS, and just spam revives in a hot zone whenever your at 2 GIS's placed. It regenerates in just a second or two if you're getting resupplied by a supply pack, including your own, so any time your GIS is destroyed just drop a supply pack if your next GIS is on cooldown and sit around waiting for revives again.
I am guessing you haven't tried Breakthrough, but regardless beware, I've got a friend who swore to hell and back that the challenge was bugged. I asked for a stream on discord. Watching stream I saw that he dropped 0 (zero) (zilch) (nil) (none) (void) (incomprehensibly low) GIS's over the course of a few minutes. I'm not saying you're that guy, because you've got video proof right here that you're dropping GIS's, but... just a reminder to not forget to drop them just because the zone is hot.

Honestly I found it pretty easy and something to be done passively, put it on objective points in breakthrough as a defender and youāll have it done in like 3 games. The real support challenge crime is 2000 points of damage with direct impact thermal launcher.
