Guild Wars 2

What is the minimum level for getting credit for killing something above your level.
I joined in a kill of a lvl 39 mob and I was lvl 14 and got no credit for the kill. Of course others were there, but I got a lot of tiny hits in. Is it 10 lvls?

I read somewhere here in the forums, can’t remember where, that there is a 9 level difference. If the mobs are 10 levels above you you will not get credit. Maybe someone else can verify this.

its based on damage, it just nearly impossoible to “tag” a purple to you if it isnt being killed very slowly
