Kills with weapon I didn't use

Twice in warzone I have been credited with Spartan laser kills and I never picked one up. Anyone else experience this? Today I got credit for two kills on stormbreak. I never used a Spartan laser at all. It shows on the game history on this site as well as I got credit towards the commendation on the console post game stats. Lucky me I guess.

Yes, every once in awhile it will show the wrong weapon on the kill feed when I get a kill.

ya its weird but hilarious. i got a Melee kill before after i killed a guy in a banshee. im like What?

Yep. This has happened to me too.

It’s an error that I believe relates to the enemies taking damage after being dead. It started in Reach and has been in every one since.

Happened to me a couple of days ago lol.

If you shoot a vehicle at the same time as the player who actually kills it, you have a tendency to get credit for the kill. Same is true for bosses. I still haven’t figured out why you occasionally get a boss kill by dying halfway across the map though.

Banshee got hit by a Splaser. Took damage but didn’t die. I fired a few rounds of BR into it. Killed it. Got attributed a laser kill.

This has happened to me as well.

I some how managed a melee kill destroying a scorpion. HULK SMASH!!

this usually happens when both shots are recognized at the same time and glitches in choosing which goes where. this also happens lets say your teammate shot a spartan laser at a vehicle and damaged it, then that vehicle either committed suicide, was betrayed, or killed by an AI before regaining their shields, and you too laid a shot on them. because it doesnt register as a suicide, betrayal, or AI kill, it glitches again. Hope this somewhat makes sense

This happens to me every once and a while but only in warzone and when I kill a vehicle.

Oh God this irritates me.
I boarded the wraith! I planted the grenade, and someone else shot it the same time my grenade went off so I get an assist…so irritating.

If you shoot at a vehicle that was “one-shot” or boarded with a grenade. It goes through some sort of dead but not dead, and shooting at the vehicle will award you the kill.

Like if a tank is boarded with a grenade, and you were to spam a smg at it, you would steal the kill.

Same with wardenough eternal’s assassination, I assassinated him and after the animation, he formed into a ball and the enemy team shot him as the animation played and stole the kill.
