Are you struggling to complete some specialist mastery requirements in Battlefield 2042? Then, download Update 4.1.0 immediately because this patch has adjusted a few mastery requirements to make them easier to accomplish.

Before anything, getting specialists to Tier 1 mastery in Battlefield 2042 rewards you with skins for your hard work. However, that’s easier said than done because some specialists have mastery requirements that are just way too hard to complete. For instance, a lot of people deemed Sundance’s mastery requirement as the hardest to accomplish in the game. That’s because you’d have to kill (or assist in killing) 30 enemies using her Smart Explosives to get it done.

Fortunately, DICE reduced the mastery requirements of several specialists in Update 4.1.0, including Sundance. You can read the changes below:

  • Adjusted Sundance's Mastery requirement from 30 to 20 Kills and Assists with the Smart Explosives.
  • Adjusted Crawford's Mastery requirement from 50 to 30 Kills and Assists with the Mounted Vulcan.
  • Adjusted Zain's Mastery requirement from 50 to 30 Kills and Assists with the XM370A.
  • Updated Lis' Mastery requirement from 10 Vehicles Destroyed with the G-84 TGM to 10 Kills when destroying Vehicles with the G-84 TGM.
  • Updated Dozer's Mastery requirement from 20 Kills with the SOB-8 Ballistic Shield to 40 Close-distance Kills, to allow for a more varied playstyle with Dozer, but still making sure he gets up close and personal.

Improvements have been made to the game’s audio as well. One of the most notable is the overhauled HDR audio to create a higher dynamic range in the mix. This just means that some sounds that need to be emphasized are more pronounced instead of having everything blasting at full volume.
