It’s getting really damn annoying dealing 90% damage to bosses only to have some -Yoink- swoop in and deal the last few shots and you not getting the kill counting at all. Just played a match where I got ONE the final boss counting despite dealing whole bunch of damage to the other bosses.
Quite annoying trying to get the commendations.
Not only that but the boosts need to be bloody fixed, I just joined a game it threw me into a postgame screen then right back into MM but my XP boost was gone, not the first time it happened, I’ve lost multiple RP and XP boosts due to the game -Yoinking!- out.

It’s WZFF? Who cares if you get credit for the boss kill? It’s kind of annoying, but it’s a team effort against AI.
On another note I don’t even generally mess with bosses that take a long time to kill and just clean up the other AI until his their health is around 25%, then I start pounding on the boss to get credit for it.

Who cares? The people that are working on their commendations? You do realise unless it gives you points it doesn’t count towards the commendations right?
So as a player who is working on these, I care as do many others.

This topic is about Warzone FF - everyone’s on the same team.
@OP, you need to be using a Scorpion or Wraith to ensure a chance of getting the killing blow on a major boss. Also, watch as his health decreases from other people’s heavy fire and you should be able to time your shot perfectly when he has a tiny sliver of health left.

Give me a break. The enemy and kill commendations in Halo 5 are a joke. It takes very little playtime to complete those. They should have been 3 times higher. I don’t wanna hear it. A lot of us didn’t have firefight to complete those. Try hunting down 3 grunts per warzone round and finishing them off like that. You guys are given 100s of grunts, crawlers, watchers, and multiple hunters and wardens per round. If you can’t complete your commendations with that advantage maybe you should move to a game like checkers.

Thanks. In my experience, you don’t get credit if you are not engaging as close as your peers. You could be shooting something with a ghost from halfway across the map the whole time, but you shouldn’t get the same credit as someone who was taking fire and actively engaging the enemy.
The Warden commendation is damn near impossible. You must get the VERY LAST SHOT on him for it to register the kill. I think the commendation was more lenient before.
Hey if they won’t give arena/warzone players a assist counts as kill recommendation then screw FF! Its worse in PvP when your teammates wait for the opponent’s shield to break before “assisting” you.
Yea there have been numerous complaints about how there’s no credit for total damage dealt vs landing the killing blow. If you’re in a vehicle, just try to time your shot when there’s 1% health left. If you’re on foot and it’s a Knight or a Warden. Try to assassinate them again when they’re health is low. I’ve hopped around a Mythic Warden meleeing him and got that kill credit lol (I have assassinations turned off).

Actually, you recieve the warden commendation even with an assist (as long as you get the little medal saying you killed a boss)
We’ve tested it with some friends, and were able to all get every warden kills in a WZFF match
Sounds like you need to work on your damage to bosses timing and make sure you deal damage towards the end of their life. Also if you get thrown into a match that late your boost should refund. It may take a game or two but it does.

The fact that I was sitting in a scorpion during the last 3 bosses dealing 99% damage but not being able to hit them for the 1% because they ducked behind -Yoink- where some tool in a banshee swooped in and got both kills is the -Yoinking!- problem and what made me post this topic.
If you deal the last hit you shouldn’t get -Yoink- unless you actually contributed X amount of damage to the boss or enemy.

Sounds like you are exaggerating to me. If they were within one hit kill and you did indeed do damage towards the end of their lives you would get credit. Clearly they had more health than you are claiming.
