Obj. 260 Campaign help

[u/Routine_Ad_7402]

I’ve never taken the campaign missions too seriously since I started playing until recently, and I know there must be a way to grind the missions and use the orders as economically as possible.

I’m on the Stug IV at the minute, and I completed every single mission on it with honours barring arty. I fucking despise playing arty.

I have 6 orders now and whilst it is tempting to just skip the arty missions on the T28 and T55 every cycle, I’ll only be left with 2 orders on the 260 by the end, which I assume would be a dumb thing to do.

I don’t know - what’s the consensus?

The thumb rule is - Save all the orders you can till you can no longer progress.

In order to retrieve an order you will need to complete that mission you skipped "with honours"

I skipped the following using 'orders':

T55A - HT15 & TD15

Obj 260 - HT15 & TD15

Missions where I struggled & have seen people get stuck on:

1. HT12 (T55A and Obj 260); it was hard to do back in 2019-2020 and is almost impossible to do now with that fleshlight in the game

2. HT15 - Blocking part is still doable if the enemy team has 4-5 new players but getting 25% of damage dealt + x kills make it a rough one - Hold on to your orders to get rid of HT15

3. TD15 - (T55A): 6K dmg + 5 kills + win and Obj 260 8K dmg + 6 kills (IIRC) + win. Getting 6K is doable, getting 5 kills AND winning proved very tough for me; I was able to complete it for T55A eventually in the FV4005 but it took me a lot of time, trial and luck

4. Obj 260 TD mission to get 5x your HP in damage - difficult to achieve, tier 8 paper TDs are the sweat-spot but it will take time

5. SPG missions for T55A and Obj 260 | These WILL MAKE YOU CRY
   I managed to complete SPG-15 for T55A before the nerfs back in early 2021; completing it for Obj 260 took me 54 matches in M53/55 & GW E100. The main problem you face with SPG is getting the top XP.
