Death recaps are literally incorrect in PvP

Killed a streamer in BGs the other day, their death recap had my account listed with a skill my character doesnt even have slotted.

This seems like a bug and seems like it would lead to a lot of incorrect player assumptions due to the game client providing incorrect data. Is this a bug?

    They have never been "accurate" as far as I can tell.

    They sum up dots and are rarely in the proper order.

    You could call it a bug, but it seems to just be a synapsis of what occurred... not a detailed and timestamped listing.

    Yeah but this recap listed lethal arrow from me and I was on a magDK who has no bow skills practiced.

    You may have reflected his attack back at him?

    He probably shot you with a Lethal Arrow that you reflected back at him. That seems to be how those hits are displayed on the recap.

    Doesn't the death recap list what current attacks/skills killed you, meaning they could be from multiple players?

    That lethal arrow that showed up on the recap, even though you didn't use that skill, someone else may have used it, and it contributed to killing that player.

    When i look at my death recaps, sometimes it shows what killed me, and I know some of the skills were not by the player I saw kill me. I think it lists the names of the players as well, or at least I think it does on Xbox.

    I could be wrong.

    the streamer was on a mag sorc not a stam char, I dont think its a lethal arrow reflection, possible, but not likely
