I'd like to know, as I'm having similar issues. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

21 UEFEndeavour Beta Testers 62 posts 3,791 battles Report post #8 Posted August 15, 2017 I tried to get this in some of the ships I'm best at and failed miserably. Got close a few times, but I was always either a kill or a few points of damage shy of the goal. So I broke out the Montana, a ship I haven't played that much, and managed 4 kills and almost 200,000 damage in Random without even really trying. This has made me question my unwillingness to play my Montana. She's kind of a beast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

176 [COOP] UnseenSpectacle Members 812 posts 5,604 battles Report post #20 Posted August 16, 2017 I've done it in both the Yorck and the Duguay-Trouin. The mission is easiest to complete in co-op with a BB heavy team (3+). On the way in I would do chip damage to cruisers and destroyers (and perhaps snagging a kill in the process). Then, find the BBs line up for a point blank torpedo run and try to avoid as much damage as you can. The closer the BBs are, the better. The squishier your ship, the more dangerous extended torp runs are. The Yorck I found quite easy because T7-8 ships have large health pools and the Yorck decent armor profile for a cruiser that allows you to YOLO long enough to get the job done. When I played the Duguay-Trouin, I found it much more difficult only because the hit point pool was much smaller and it meant I had to play very selfishly to ensure I did as much damage as possible. Both ships shared the trait that they could dev strike a BB with each side of their torpedoes. Yorck, I did it on the second time I tried it... the Duguay took about 10-15 times to get the stars to align at low tiers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

53 JinghisKhan Members 252 posts 3,215 battles Report post #22 Posted August 16, 2017 Co-op, get a Nicholas or a Clemson, then hope for a few BBs in your matchmaking. I got four kills and 112k of damage from hitting a Danae with gunfire in the initial stages, a Furutaka with a full salvo of torps when it tried to rush my smoke, a New York when it followed the 'Taco and sailed conveniently into my portside torpedo batteries, and a ton of fire damage on a Wyoming while hunting down the last of the red team. Also scored gun damage on a Minekaze and a Okhotnik. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
273 [AAYC] Siegewolf Beta Testers 791 posts 18,160 battles Report post #23 Posted August 16, 2017 After trying to finish this in PvP, (Random) either getting the damage but not the kills or the opposite. So I went to Bots (Co-OP) with a Tirpitz and did it in one match. Bots are the easiest to farm for that last mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

90 Soylent_Red_Is_Tomato Members 459 posts 8,042 battles Report post #25 Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) One of the tricks to getting missions done in Coop is to ''abuse'' the mirroring; if you need to farm BBs for example, or ships of a certain nation, div up so the other folks with you can bring those ships into the match. Otherwise yeah, all folks will see is an endless series of matches full of farming ships intending to complete a mission requirement rather than the necessary targets; trade off as necessary I accidentally completed the 100k/2 ships with Tashkent in a PvE match where I was testing a change to the ship/captain, but last night I played a PvP match with Takao that would also have qualified for completion. The requirements are doable, but I think a lot of folks are going to end up like me on the fifth step and only get it completed when not trying for it. I will say though the three ''Try your Luck'' containers as a reward for such a match were extremely lackluster, so I probably won't bother with the steps past getting the blueprints on weeks two and three. (I received 4x Juliet Charlie (det signal) & [2x] 4x Juliet Whiskey Unaone (+ flooding, +det signal) between my three containers; seriously?)
