Damage based with some subtractions for wounding teammates.

Hurr durr archer survived overhead gmaul shot from me and 2h gaysworder runs in and stab and steals my kill.


Yep we need assists pronto.

[//saxon]

yes i totally agree with the assists!!

[Miley]

Why do we need to count assists? Everyone will have assists then, and the TAB menu will be crowded. Unless it's for extra experience, then no.

I agree with the idea of exp/gold per kill, I'd rather not have each kill have the same weight. Killing/damaging certain players is far more rewarding (for you and the team) than trying to chase after peasants. I would not like it if killing the random level 10 peasant would be the same as the level 35, 10 k/d boss fight.

Totally agree. Certain players are worth more to their team than 10 peasants, and damaging them should be rewarded much more heavily than one-shotting some peasant.

Some classes are based on assists whilst others get the finishing strikes more. It's good to have both accounted for in the score. Warband is quite outdated in the scoreboard not having assists aspect.

I may be for assists. It just depends on how its implemented and how that affects the new system. Although it would be nice for some people to be recognized for their help to the team even without anything else involved.

Also with assists, if I and 2 other melee players along with 2 archers are attacking one enemy player, if all 5 of us land hits on that enemy player and I finish him off, do all 4 of the other players get assists as well? How would it work?

i would insert dehorsing too

Personally i dont think its a good idea to go back to the old xp system, the current one is better as it promotes team work and playing as a team. Your team has to win in order for you to profit, with the old system team work doesnt matter, if someone is going to get a kill before you do then "accidently" tk them in order to be the one to get the kill and just recklessness in general. I kind of doubt chadz will actually implement a system that is even 25% similar to the old one i think hes just trolling to get people to read into what hes saying but in reality it will be quite differnt and hopefully better. But still a team play oriented system is best IMO.

Thats the point Miley...

New system will be performance based somewhat.

[Penitent]

the current board shows only kills.  It would be MUCH cooler and better if it showed usefulness.  This has to take in to account assists, among other things if possible.

Does this mean that the xp barn will be back?
