That's kind of dumb, though...

: What's wrong with dealing points out based off of damage? So it's not that if
: someone does 60% of damage they get 100% of the points, but that each
: bullet, each percentage of damage nets a certain percentage of the points.
: It just seems dumb that there could be 10 blues with tanks, rockets,
: banshees, and snipers all dominating the warden, and then 1 person on the
: other side of the map can fire 1 bullet and potentially take all the
: points for their team. 60% of the damage should get you 60% of the points.
: That will make it so that it is still worth getting as much damage on the
: bosses without fear of 1 stray bullet having all of your coordination and
: teamwork completely ruined.

Then if you killed it, you'd award the enemy team with tons of points. The minute they do over 50% of damage, you are hurting your team by killing the boss; every bullet you put into it puts the enemy team closer to getting a bunch of points.

The way it is now is perfect. Don't want to lose the kill to a stray bullet? Do a better job of defending the area from snipers and heavies.

: I see that being a problem. A team of 4 people could stand 300 meters away
: and just wait until the wardens health gets low and then all of them shoot
: at the same time. That is something that is literally impossible to defend
: against.
