Hey all,
So after playing a few Warzone matches over the past few days, I’ve been wondering something.
What determines whether you get an “assist” on a kill? There have been times where I will hit a target with maybe one round, and I’ll get credit for the assist. Others (especially bosses), I’ll put round after round into them (rockets, plasma cannon, etc) and when they finally go down, I don’t get any credit for the kill, only the “your teammates have downed ______”.
There have been a couple times where I’ve seemingly done most of the work, and yet don’t get credit.
Is there some sort of pre-determined damage threshold you have to hit to get credit for the kill? Am I just unlucky? Or does it depend on the type of enemy/type of damage? (I.e. I take down the shields on an Elite Ultra boss solo, but if someone else headcaps him I don’t get any credit. This has happened a few times to me.)
Just trying to satisfy my own curiosity.
