I found this to be quite prevalent in most warzone games I play, both firefight and regular warzone. I fire all of my BR ammo, and all of my DMR ammo into an enemy vehicle or boss and while I’m firing off my last DMR shots some guy comes up and shoots them once with a Spartan Laser and I don’t even get an assist. The most aggravating occasion was when I spent nearly 4 minutes attacking a single banshee for a tank to roll in and just shoot it once and I get nothing. This mainly happens when I die right before the boss does, but those occasions aggravate me less as I can understand not being rewarded it due to dying. Does anyone else have any explanations for why this happens so often or similar experiences?
Patrol Case + Extended Mags is your best friend when slaying bosses when on foot. Otherwise, whip out a vehicle and start chewing away at them.
Sometimes the game gives you the medal, but it doesn’t count as the last kill, as most likely someone else nabbed it.
