Is the Arkhunters Pursuit Ever Going to be Fixed?

Every time a new patch gets released the first thing I do is see if this has been addressed and sadly, up to this point, it hasn't. Considering the fact that the dynamic Arkfalls are such a major part of the game and one of its biggest selling points I'm a little dissapointed and frustrated that this bug wasn't fixed right away. I don't really get into the other pursuits because I find the time trials just awful and finding all the necessary recorders is tedious so the one thing I do at least 3 or 4 times a play session is Arkfalls. I've done dozens of them sinse launch and I always revive and I'm almost always in the top 5 spot on the final board yet I'm continuously stuck at 235 kills and 20 revives. I'd really like this fixed soon but I never hear anything mentioned about a fix.

ok stick to only hellbug arkfalls, but you could also contact support and ask them to fix it for you they can complete them

I've not had any contact with Defiance support except for a couple of unanswered tickets that I ended up finding workarounds for and subsequently closed myself; would you suggest an in game ticket or live chat support?

Live chat > all other trion support methods.

Live chat will clear this up for you in a matter of minutes.

do not use cluster grenades or cluster rocket or grenade launchers...this will fix your problem.

I heard about this bug. I just recently (like in the last week or so) started using a detonator that launches cluster grenades on my Arkfall build and still end up fairly high on the boards, even finished first a couple of times, but I'll take your advise and change my weapon load out and see what happens, hopefully my kills will actually go up and I'll finally finish this pursuit.

Have not heard anything about cluster/launchers resetting kills in pursuits. I know clusters will show your kills as 0 on the board after an arkfall but never had it reset all of them via pursuits.

My ark kills only reset anytime I participated in a progenitor arkfall. Spoke with a customer service rep over live chat and bam ... fixed the problem as I was still logged in.

No, cluster grenades in your loadout is tied to the no damage on leaderboard bug in co-op missions and arkfalls. It's a completely different bug. Your kills still show up on the leaderboards.

I have used cluster rockets and grenade launchers at arkfalls several times and they are fine to use.

Stick to the major arkfalls with hellbug crystals, those ones will count towards your overall major arkfall kills pursuit. The other hellbug one with the Waves of bugs will not.

AFAIK, major arkfall revives are not affected by the reset bug. I managed to hit all 100 while having my kills reset multiple times. According to pursuits, I have more revives than kills in major arkfalls. To the best of my knowledge the only way to prevent your major arkfall kills from resetting is by only doing hellbug arkfalls; do not do the scrapper ones.

Until the Arkfal pursuits are done, do only Hellbug Destruction Major Arkfal

Ignore everything else... if you touch anything in one of the others, your kill count will get reset. I have not seen the revive count get reset but that is still slow progression because people hardly ever die and then there are lot of people that go to help right away or a-holes that lets you kneel down next to them and then self-revive.

Thanks for this. Ugh! Hellbug Destruction Majors are my least favorite Arkfalls and I always mix it up whenever I get a chance so this is probably what's been going on here with my kill counts staying so low. I'll definitely take all this advise and stick with Hellbug Destructo Majors and then log out and back in to see if this works. Glad I made this post because this pursuit has been driving me nuts and should have been completed weeks ago. Thanks to everyone helping me out with this.
