**Understanding Savior Kills in Battlefield 6: How to Complete Squad Deathmatch Challenge 2 and Protection Expert 1**
If you’re working on the Squad Deathmatch Challenge 2 and Protection Expert 1 in Battlefield 6, you’ve probably come across the term “savior kills.” But what exactly are savior kills, and is there an easy way to earn them? Here’s everything you need to know.
### What Are Savior Kills?
Savior kills occur when you eliminate an enemy who is about to kill one of your teammates. This can happen in a variety of scenarios:
– The enemy is in the middle of a takedown animation on your ally.
– The opponent is actively firing at your teammate.
– Your teammate is taking cover or hiding behind a wall, and you kill the enemy targeting them.
When you successfully kill such an enemy, you earn a savior kill medal.
### Why Focus on Savior Kills?
You might be wondering about savior kills either because you’ve seen the medal pop up during gameplay without knowing what triggered it or because you’re working on specific challenges. Both the **Squad Deathmatch Challenge 2** and **Protection Expert 1** require you to achieve **30 savior kills each**.
Before attempting both challenges at once, try to unlock them individually first. Otherwise, you could end up needing to get 60 savior kills—a daunting task given how tricky these kills can be to pull off.
### Tips to Get Savior Kills More Easily
The best method to rack up savior kills is to:
– Let your teammates engage enemies first.
– Then, step in to finish off the opponents threatening your allies.
While this tactic might feel like “kill stealing,” it’s a practical approach when you’re focused on completing the challenge. Once you’ve finished it, you can move on to other objectives, such as the Medal of Honor Achievement, which requires 414 acts of valor (with savior kills counting as one type).
### The Challenge of Savior Kills
Unfortunately, savior kills are not always easy to earn. The time-to-kill in Battlefield 6 is relatively long, so if you start shooting too late, your teammate might still be downed despite your efforts. On the other hand, shooting too early might not count as a savior kill if the enemy wasn’t close to finishing off your ally.
Remember, patience and good timing are key.

With this understanding, you should be better equipped to pursue savior kills and complete your Battlefield 6 challenges. Good luck on the battlefield!
