It took me awhile to complete the first part of the bounty, but I finally did it! Harder than I thought it would be.
I noticed getting a special, or heavy kill, would not reward you with as much points as a kill with TLW. I'm not sure how many points you lose per death. I would say a death will deduct the points earned from a TLW kill: they have 1 to 1 ratio. I would say secondary weapon kills will grant .5 points or more, but less than 1 point. So if I broke even just using secondary weapons, I would still lose points for the bounty.
Also, if my kd was +1.0 with more TLW kills than secondary weapon kills, I would get a slight increase in points at the end of the match.
This is all speculation, would love to hear if anybody actually new the math behind it.
Also, after completing the first part, you have to contribute a sizable donation to the Cryptarch (Curse you master Rahool), but I don't have enough glimmer. Visited the bank of exclusion zone, but they weren't paying out what they use to. Anybody know where is the new place to farm glimmer?
