crystal DMG in glory field(shatter)

i recently noticed that your total damage to the crystal in that frontline instance isn't technically contributing to the total amount of points you will acquire from it when it will shatter.

i can't exactly figure how or why during that instance the damage that our team did was totally negated when it shattered but i think that when you get out of battle with the crystal it possibly reset the points being counted and so if everyone were to leave combat with the crystal while it's at 1% of life , all the 300 points would go toward the team that did the 1% of damage if they were to shatter it.

maybe it's intented but i feel like it shouldnt be like that because then i guess people will just try to leap frog each other while capturing bases, which is not what people are currently doing but my guess is that it's the most efficient way to get all the points

I know it's not the moment that an entire team drops out of combat on it but I have seen points completely negated before. I think that is correct, if an Ice goes "unclaimed" the point distribution is reset. But the ice has to completely reset (it never regens HP though) and not just have everyone on the team move out of range of it. I've sacrificed a death on small ice's before by unloading a huge burst on a small ice when I'm solo at it and dying before it's shattered but because the other team kept hitting it while I was alive and after I died it never went completely unclaimed so I still got the points along with their share.

Its fine and not as easy to do with pugs especially when enemy team is aware of that. There is a fair long time before it gets unclaimed if you do 99% of the work and the enemy team just kill ppl at crystal to let it get unclaimed its easy to counter just run in and get some dmg off.

it does happen very often that there's 2 team with half the points than the winning team, yet i haven't seen a single instance where this kind of pinching was used(well i can't tell if last time it was a tactic tho)

You can reset a crystal by killing everyone there, letting dots fall off and running out if aggro range of the crystal. You can take advantage of this in a premade and get +300 for doing only 20% of the crystal.
