Guild Wars 2

I was doing TA last night playing ranger with a longbow at the vine part in the beginning and when the giant vine popped out of the ground I supported the team by taking the attention of the deadly projectiles that it and its adds throw. I also helped by shooting down the adds.

When the boss died I did not receive kill credit from it and missed out on my chance for unique items and my bag of wondrous goods.

I was wondering if anyone else was having kill credit issues on any of the other dungeon bosses?

I know the best way to get kill credit would have been to shoot the boss itself directly more, but I feel like what I was doing was very helpful to the team and shooting at the boss would have only slowed the add killing down.

Yes, happened quite often and i know im definitely contributing.

I’ve also noticed that bosses tend to “focus fire” that they often have the effect of singling a player out that they don’t want to receive kill credit on.

Some bosses have some pretty brutal 1 hit kill moves that can be hard to dodge, and they like to use them on the same person over and over again even after they’ve rezzed at a WP and returned.

No credit for “taking one for the team” either.
