Killing mobs can contribute to your team getting more powerful or providing powerful guardians to assist your team in capping and keeping points.
If your point was a good one you wouldn’t have to lie to make it.

but what if his team can’t make out of the spawn area? he still couldn’t do most the things you are suggesting.
there really needs to be some match making added to keep randoms from being constantly pug stomped.
i’ve been in games that are waaay too one sided idk know whats going on with the que but its something else…
To be clear, I believe that the last patch which adjusted scoring and rewards to stop afk players from getting rewards went too far and now sometimes players who are actually trying don’t get rewards.
That being said, I have adjusted such and encourage anyone who wants to make sure they get rewards to do the same:
At the beginning of the match, pve until you have 500 points. Just kill stuff.
Then play as normal.
edit: or heal.
Agree completely.
It is certainly possible to not get credit for an opr. Even if one aims to kill mobs for 500 points they could come up short. However, it’s really easy to get 500 points. If you’re consistently not getting 500 points then it’s probably on you. Again, I don’t think that the point system is great. It can definitely be improved upon. Legitimate play styles can end up with no credit due to the way that scoring works. Until that changes, do you what you need to in order to get credit… which is very little.
It is too easy, IMHO.
If they added points for damage done it would solve the problem, I have no idea why this isn’t the case already.

all i’m saying is i’ve had way to many games where the enemy team is gated within the first couple minutes.completely.
Add getting nothing for that? yea that’s an awful feeling and it’s not really their fault.
i can understand OP being super frustrated with how easy it is for premades to just roll over randoms.
Agree, it’s really odd that damage doesn’t give points. Theoretically I could do 1 million damage and not get credit without kills.

Truth. I am not even asking to top the leaderboard. I don’t give a damn about that, let the healers top it, it makes people want to heal. I just want to get credit for every match and the current scoring system is idiotic. Kills get points but few kills are claimed by a solo person who took on someone else, and the group point system (at least as far as I can tell in OPR) is broken.
As a DPS, I don’t need to “win” the chart, I just want to earn rewards equal to my effort.
I do not think it is just personal points that count. There are team points too and they are calculated differently. People can get tons of personal points but if the team points do not cross the 500 mark it seems you will get no rewards.
some times you lose you dont get the chests, and very rare occasions you get that one enemy team that rolls yours im talking triple cap off rip and then spawn trapped you get no rewards at all
I think you are incorrect.
Can you provide a screenshot of a person getting 500 personal points and not getting any rewards?
I don’t claim to have ALL the data but I will say this: I play a lot of OPR and (since the last patch) there has NEVER been a time where I have scored fewer than 500 points and gotten rewards and there has NEVER been a time where I have scored 500 and not gotten rewards.

Yea as long as you get your 500 points you’ll get credit.
Another oddity is not getting points for capping a point. I haven’t really tested this but I helped a friend who just reached level 60 learn how to get credit (he was also frustrated since he had lousy gear and was fairly new) and after showing him how to get 500 via mobs I paid attention to capping a point and no points were received. Anecdotal I know, but that was my experience. Players should definitely get points for contributing to a capping.
Seriously!
Nope (about it being just anecdotal), I have tested too. No points for capping a point solo or as part of a group. And this is absurd.
Either is killing players.
Taking forts is the point. Killing players and killing mobs both help to that end.
What’s your point?

I do not have a screen shot. I have however discussed it with multiple people and this is the only time that a zero reward appears to have happened, other than when joining the round late. The next time you get no rewards double check the team score. If I am incorrect and some other factor is causing it that we are not seeing then I am of course sorry. But when people are getting plenty of points but the team does not score over 500 and you get no reward at all it is kinda hard to not assume it is that.
Trash is trash kid, if you opr and farm mobs you are a hinderance to your team
Correct, but not in the way you think. Kid.
If the system encourages me to farm mobs in order to secure rewards then the system is encouraging me to be a hinderance to my team.
The “trash” is the system, and people like you that buy into it without giving it any actual thought.

No, if you take the easy way out, then you are the ignorant kind that contributes nothing for rewards. Have fun in real life kiddo
Trash.
