Some of the challenges in **Battlefield 6** can be a little on the wacky side, requiring you to play or do things in a match that you might not always focus on. One such challenge is getting smoke assists for the Support 3 class assignment. While it can be annoying, it’s definitely not too hard to accomplish.
## How to Get Smoke Assists in Battlefield 6
To earn smoke assists and complete the Support 3 class challenge in Battlefield 6, you need to follow a simple process:
1. **Throw a smoke grenade.**
2. **Have a teammate kill or down an enemy through the smoke you deployed.**
This means using your smokes wisely and placing them intelligently is key.
### Recommended Strategy
My recommendation is to play on the **Breakthrough** mode, especially on smaller maps like **New Sobek City**, **Manhattan Bridge**, or **Empire State**. No matter which side you’re on, select the Support class and head to where the combat is most intense.
Place your smoke grenade at or near one of the main sightlines around the objectives. After that, all you can do is wait and hope your teammates can take advantage of the smoke cover.
### Tips for Success
– Stay on or near the objective, preferably in close quarters.
– For example, I managed to get three smoke assists in quick succession on the final point of New Sobek City by throwing down smoke to revive some teammates.
– Remember, you’ll need **50 smoke assists** to complete the Support 3 challenge, so plan on playing several matches to rack them up.
### Other Game Modes
It is possible to get smoke assists in other game modes like **Conquest**, but due to the larger map sizes, it can be more challenging. The condensed combat areas in Breakthrough make it much easier to secure smoke assists quickly.
If you’re playing other modes, try to stick to close quarters points to increase your chances, though it might not be as efficient as Breakthrough.

By following these tips and focusing on smart smoke placement, you’ll be able to complete the Support 3 class challenge without too much frustration. Good luck out there!
