I've noticed when you kill someone in PVP with a knockback it says "person was defeated." but not "by you". I'm also pretty sure it's not counted in the kill count when the game is over.
Could this be addressed? My favorite kills are knocking people off high places and I see no reason why this isn't shown in my kill count.
Frontlines, no credit for knockback kills?

You should get the kill, even though technically it was gravity and the sudden stop that did the job.

I don't see how this is really a problem. I mean, everyone gets the same exp and marks in the end, based on where their GC finished. But I guess its just another one of the little things where you wanna know that you did better than other people, so eh, why not. 8D

07-12-2014, 05:00 PMMajidahIt's not really about the exp... I mean, at the end of the match they show your kills and such. There isn't much of a point to it, but it wouldn't be right for it to display inaccurate results.Quote:

Wait, let me get this straight. You are playing in a team-play mode of PvP, where it's the party's actions in claiming outposts/ruins that determines success, and you're complaining about getting kill credit? Why does that matter? How does that matter? I'm lost...

07-13-2014, 07:11 AMMajidahHow does it not matter? It's listed right at the end of the battle each time.Quote:

Some people jump off the cliffs when they know they are going to die as well, robbing you of kill credit. It's a simple fix really. Whoever hit them last before their death should get the kill credit.
Yeah, in the end it doesn't really matter that much, but would still be nice. -
07-13-2014, 07:55 AMMyuZeroBut you didn't do the finishing blow. Only the last hitter gets the kill point. If you were chasing me and I killed myself by jumping off or getting killed by neutrals I don't see why anyone would award you the kill. Getting pushed off means that a neutral element did the finishing blow, not you. Otherwise we might as well award the kill to the person who did most damage to the player and no one does that.Quote:

If someone suicides off a cliff it should still award the 5 points to the team that had gotten the last hit on that person, like in league of legends with executes, if they haven't been hit in 10 seconds then no credit is given.

07-13-2014, 08:16 AMBladegloryYou jumping off and getting pushed off are two different circumstances. If I'm clever/lucky enough to shove you off a cliff to kill you, that still speaks of my skill/fortune. Furthermore, if you see no way of escaping with your life intact (making you choose between the cliff or the sword), your attackers have won by forcing your hand (checkmate!). Being able to jump off and kill yourself doesn't mean that Titan didn't beat you.Quote:

In the end, it's up to SE to decide if they want to allow Kill-Denies or change the system to be more intelligent about gravity-murder. It doesn't really matter as far as winning and losing goes, but it strikes me as weird. -
