Yeah. Assists. As a stat. Along with PK's. Every sport values them just as much as the point itself... might make a nice addition?

And nearly any FPS them on the MP scoreboard after matches. I second this suggestion.

Unnecessary.

I don't think Vendetta needs to be like all the other MMOs, but if you think about it, how many times have you been PvPing or botting and someone else gets the last shot in on your kill? I do think that assists would make a good addition to the game.

The Shedu, PK counts are essentially unnecessary, too.

Just finish off the person who did get the PK, then you both get a kill.

A dog eat dog world eh Krag? :P

But like Tosh said, they're as necessary, or as unnecessary as keeping track of pk's. In furballs half the time you do all the work, and don't get the kill. I've gone through lots of furballs where the stars just aren't aligning for me; I'm dealing out more damage than anyone, but not getting any kills. And vice versa. So maybe you'll say it evens out? Sure, but it won't be accurate. And isn't that what stats are all about? Right now they fall into the "Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics" category I think.

Anyway, I'm not saying there is a burning need for this addition to the game. It won't add anything to the mechanics, and other than providing a more accurate representation of a players skill, isn't a priority.

Just a thought.
