What to know

  • Support Assignment 1 often fails to track healing, medbag use, or revive actions due to game bugs.​
  • Restarting the game or healing specifically squadmates can trigger assignment progress tracking.​​
  • Healing bots or trying custom maps may also reset stuck challenge scores.​
  • Reaching at least Rank 20 is required before Support Assignments start tracking at all.​​

Battlefield 6’s Support Assignment bugs have frustrated many players recently, especially those attempting to track healing progress needed for class challenges or unlocks. The problem appears to affect supply bag healing, revives, and other support actions, with scores sometimes stuck at zero even after repeated attempts. Below, you’ll find the most effective steps, community-tested workarounds, and tips for getting class assignments to register properly.

Bug fixes to trigger support healing challenge progress

Battlefield 6’s Support Assignment bug persists, but targeting squadmates and using Portal/custom servers have consistently worked as easy fixes:

Fix 1

Join a squad and try to heal only your squadmates, rather than random teammates. Most progress-tracking bugs appear to actually require squad-based support actions. Drop your medbag as close as possible to injured squadmates and encourage them to use it.​​

Fix 2

If healing points do not update after a match, restart Battlefield 6 completely. Some players report that tracking resumes after a fresh start.​

Fix 3

Play in Small formats like Team Deathmatch. Also, try to squad up in Portal mode or on community servers. Many class challenge bugs, including Support Assignment tracking, appear less frequently (or are completely absent) on Portal-created custom servers.​

Fix 4

Attempt to heal bots or use healing mechanics on custom maps, which may reset stuck score counters according to some players.​

Fix 5

Make sure that your account has reached at least Rank 20 before attempting Support Assignments. Assignments will not start tracking progress until the rank threshold is met.​​

Reported bugs and fixes in a nutshell

If none of the above steps work, report the issue to EA via the Battlefield forums or EA Help. Developers are collecting bug reports and plan to release stability and progression tracking fixes in upcoming patches.​
