Display damage dealt on the scoreboard

Just noticed this

For battle it's 4.44% and for siege 2.79%. Both are the top two 2handers. Oh, and it's damage and not kills. Forgot about that.
Seems damage is being tracked. If that is the case then why is it not displayed on the scoreboard instead of the unrepresentative kills? I'd think this would do a great job at reducing killwhoring and giving a more representative view on who are the skilled players.

It's time to put all the WSE dev e-peen flinging to the test and see if they can do this, I bet they can. Question is, why don't you/they?

Damage dealt? You could still go for one-hiting peasants racking up damage, wouldn't make a difference. Amount of hits on enemy players sounds better. :P

Amount of hits? You could still get an agi warspear build and sideswing 20 times on every enemy, wouldn't make a difference.

How is that different from the trying to kill peasants for the kill we have now? Damage dealt is still more representative.

seeing as the reason you kill a peasant in 1 hit is because they have lo HP, it wouldn't show a whole lot if you went peasant hunting would it :P

Low armor. Always getting the max out of yoir swings. If this was implemented, just consider what I'm saying. 40-50 each peasant one-hit with no risk to yourself. High armored players lower damage because of armor, greater risk becaue they have better weapons, stats etc.

That type of scoreboard could also lie about the effectiveness of a player

I like this idea alot. Have it next to the kills and deaths or something. As an archer I get tons of hits and damage but not as many kills. It would be cool to see how much damage I'm doing.

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

I agree with displaying total damage done.

People slaughtering peasants for easy damage would be absolutely no different than today.  What it would track is your typical 0/5 archer who actually did 1500 damage and just never managed a kill shot.

Tracking "hits" would work too I guess but I'd rather see "damage".  I don't care how many times I hit people; I care how much damage I did to them.
Crush your enemies; see them driven before you; hear the lamentations of their women.

Would like to see that too. I go for gayvalry as my prime target and kill quite a few horses but less riders. Would like to see how good/bad I really am...

Maybe it is possible to also display team hits? (hmm... I think I don't do me a favour with this  :mrgreen:)

The logic of war seems to be that if a belligerent can fight he will fight.

There should really be 3 more categories on the scoreboard: score, damage, and assists.

The players on the list should sort by score, which is gained through kills, assists, and possibly cumulative damage. This would give players much more incentive to support other players instead of being killwhores.

An assist being an enemy you hit without killing him? Could use a certain amount of damage treshold or something.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

It should display raw damage dealed, and raw damage taken.

So the numbers are unmodified by armour and such ect ect.

That way you kill a peasant in 1 shot, or a plated guy in 6, you will obviously get more points for the plated guy kill.
