Battlefield 6: REDSEC has plenty of variety when it comes to missions, and the Decryption missions fall on the more involved end of the spectrum. Similar to Wreckage, you’ll be stuck within the objective area for a while, but instead of planting and defending a bomb, Decryption missions need you to locate beacon devices and stay within range long enough for the decryption process to complete. As you can see, it’ll need a little more patience and planning than most standard objectives. Still, the payoff is usually worth the extra effort, especially if you manage to finish without getting interrupted. So, if you want to approach them the right way, here’s how to complete Decryption missions in Battlefield 6: REDSEC.
Battlefield 6: REDSEC: How To Complete Decryption Missions
As explained earlier, decryption missions in Battlefield 6: REDSEC need you to “decrypt” enemy Beacon devices. You need to locate the Beacons and stay within range long enough for the decryption process to complete, which makes these missions slightly harder than most other mission types, forcing you to stay in one place while it completes.
To complete a Decryption mission in Battlefield 6: REDSEC, you first need to find two Beacons near the mission’s starting point. Both Beacons will be marked on your HUD, and once you or your squad member picks up the Beacon, a decryption progress bar will appear at the top of the screen.
The whole decryption process only works as long as you or the Beacon carrier stays put and avoids moving around. You can track the decryption progress via the bars beneath the meter, which will turn fully green when you stay completely still and drop to half green if you move. For that reason, we recommend picking a spot you can hold before starting the decryption. Once both Beacon devices reach 100 per cent, the mission will complete and a reward airdrop will drop in shortly thereafter.
These rewards are often higher-tier, containing powerful weapons and valuable resources. However, before you jump into a Decryption mission, remember that these missions carry a high PvP risk, since nearby squads can accept an Interception mission that will lead them directly to your location, exposing you to fights while you are still trying to decrypt the beacon.
So it’s best to attempt these missions only when you’re well-equipped, have teammates nearby, and can control the surrounding area before starting the decryption. For more gaming news and guides, be sure to check out our gaming page!
