    Any reason youre saying"not man enough"? You sounds like you're just trying to get under someone's skin.

    Some sorcs are running around just putting mages wrath on everyone for the steals. It's bad design.

    Endless fury is immensely strong in BG for sure, but I have never understood the mentality in taking issue with a teammate "stealing" a kill! It's a team game you know.

    Well when your score and rewards are based off metals you need the kills to get them and stealing you kills and getting assist nets you none

    But. There IS an assist count.

    And in deathmatch, an assist actually give just as many medal points as a killing blow ( with the exception that "assist streaks" are not possible).

    No, not all classes have access to an execute. Case in point: mDKs.

    My typical end-of-match summary has a kill / death / assist ratio of 5 / 5 / 20. Frustrating? Yes. Game breaker? No.

    The issue OP raises is real but c'est la vie.

    Well, if you slot the perk Hardline then not only will your killstreaks take fewer kills to to get, but every two assists count as a kill... wait, wrong game?

    Meh... i know this is an unpopular opinion but this is one of the many reasons small scale 3 way pvp bgs / arenas are absolute garbage.

    For the life of me, i cant figure out why they were so keen on the idea. Ctf and point generation domination are infinitely better when its 2 teams where players are incentivized to spread out. Ctf currently is an embarrassment. A 3 way circle jerk where defending is almost a liability, where getting into any 2 way skirmish that lasts longer than 20 seconds is basically a forfeit of points.

    Likewise, in relation to the topic, basic tdm where killing blows are crucial, is absolutely terrible in 3 way pvp. There is little counterplay and technique when a ranged execute from an oposing team takes a kill. It creates a scenario where falling back or trying to kite a target that you and your team has worked on, in order to recover some hp or resources is heavily disadvantageous.

    Bgs are a party game joke until they implement structured 2 team maps.

    The way they have 3 teams it is a plus to steal kills from the other 2 teams. If it was just 2 teams I would agree with your assessment that the most damage gets the kill. But throwing another team in the mix changes things.

    They designed battlegrounds in such a way to almost promote stealing kills.
