Summarize your bug Assists are not awarded to rao when he is hacking I have also noted no assists are awarded when using emp grenades with any character
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use emp grenade with any character or rao hacking ability and when someone blows up the plane tank etc you won’t even get an assist despite being the person that stopped the tank in the first place 🥇
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing Disruption 10XP or something like this but no assist
What should be happening instead? Should get an assist to incentivize people to stop the tanks and hack the helis

Yah

  • @pupsnz I agree. I have decided to switch from Angel to test another specialist and my XP earning has been consistently lower due to not earning XP for my efforts. There will be many times where you manage to hack successfully but don't land the killing blow and don't get rewarded for your participation in the battle. Not sure if the hacking effect could also be more severe in terms of movement restrictions or cause a bit of damage. Problem is that after you hack the subject you usually manage one Stinger missle but then someone else lands the killing blow or the subject manages to escape due to being alerted and you dont earn anything. One then chooses to rather just fire the Stinger instead of hacking, because you might then sometimes land the 2nd shot as well.
  • Rao is totally messed up.

    What is the point of his special skill if awards absolutely nothing? Who thought that was a good idea? Let's give him an ability to disrupt the enemy (like Casper) but you get no XP for it?

    I have literally held down all vehicles and aircraft to allow someone else to get kills, assists, and XP, and I literally got zero points. It is such a waste of time.

    Then his Mastery and Tiers are tied to spots, which hacking doesn't apparently give you? Come on EA/DICE, you can do better than this, I think.
