    Frontlines, no credit for knockback kills?

    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.

    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

    It'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.
    I usually get 2-4 kills a match knocking people off the edge so its disheartening to see it shows I only got a few "legit" kills

    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...

    How does it not matter? It's listed right at the end of the battle each time.

    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.

    But 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.
