Q:

When I kill a pack dolyak on its supply route, my server instantly receives some number of points (usually between 1 – 10, seemingly randomly). Is this working as intended? How many points is killing a yak worth?

Same question for capturing an enemy a sentry point.

I believe…..its 3 points for every yak killed, but 5 points if a yak makes it to its destination. So each yak killed is like an 8 point swing.

We spend a good part of friday afternoon killing dolyaks.
Cant’ get a more precise number that the [1-9] range, but in term of points it seems more interesting to let your foes have the camp and kill the poor yaks.

I believe…..its 3 points for every yak killed, but 5 points if a yak makes it to its destination. So each yak killed is like an 8 point swing.

From our tests, it’s 15 if you get it right at the destination door. 3 if you get it right after it leaves supply, and 0 if it’s in supply. The amount of points for killing it between Start and finish do not seem to have a rhyme or reason that we could determine.
