As Torn continues to grow stat monsters and assists are more and more valuable during wars of all kinds to take people down. 

 

I think the extra respect the assist gains in a fight should be split with the ones who are making the assist. Not the full respect just the small amount that the assist multiplier gives. 

 

Essentially the person who makes the kill gets the majority of respect but the small bit added on from the assist gets split between those who assisted in the kill. 

 

There are many lower level/stat people working hard in ranked wars gaining 0 respect and 40+ assists. I know its a small amount, but in a game with this kind of longevity, that adds up. Many fights cannot be won without 1 or more people joining in to help. 

This also puts a lot of newer players behind in gaining respect towards merits.  Where before Ranked wars a player would gain 500-1000 respect in chaining with the same energy being used in Ranked wars is no gaining 0 respect due to assists.

Tehcnially assits already gain respect, albeit given to the last hitter, via the group attack bonus.

 

Would this be on top of that? If so, how much respect (ish) would you reckon?

 

 

Edit: For references quoted from a Proxima guide:

Group attacks provide a bonus of up to 1.5x depending on the number of additional attackers in the fight. The first additional attacker provides a bonus of 25%, the second 12.5%, the third 6.25% - so on and so forth. These %'s are added together and this figure is then applied as the multiplier. This can be expressed as:

Group Multiplier = 1.5 - 0.25 * (0.5^(x - 1))

where x is the number of additional attackers. Each attacker must be in your faction to count.

The extra respect the assist gains in a fight should be split with the ones who are making the assist instead of all of it going to the one with the last hit.

would make calculating RW for me much easier, I usually have to put extra base respect for each assist so this help me regardless. R+

R+ - definitely agree, then again though I think that people who do revives should get respect for reviving ppl too.

R+ definitely agree on this. I artificially do this on our war report to show the small players how much of the war score was actually thanks to their efforts. Would be cool if Torn also acknowledged that.
