Weapon damage not accumulating during arkfalls

[TheLastDon]

I am on Xbox 360. I think this is a known issue, but I thought I would report it anyway. It's rather annoying. I was using my bolt rifle yesterday on arkfalls and it started at 4,000 damage and I did 5 arkfalls and the damage didn't go up on the weapon stats.

Currently you don't. What is the point of doing arkfalls? It resets your kill counter and doesn't give you weapon xp. All they are good for is to get a stupid shield and grenade that are worse than the ones you already have.

Its working as intended, you do not gain weapon xp at arkfalls. I like it this way, if I have a fav weapon I like to use, I dont want to have it level up just by doing 1 major arkfall and then its useless. Arkfalls can give so much xp that one can fully level a weapon and deem it useless since it wont gain towards your weapon xp anymore. And I dont want to have to throw away my fav weapon after doing 1 arkfall. and im not just not going to use it at an arkfall cos it might be a good weapon that does some good damage to that crystal.ya know

It's a good point. I defer to you on this one. However, we really need the kill count to work!

There are arkfall related pursuits and challenges.
If your good and come out on the top of a major arkfall list everytime you do one, youd fully max out a weapon each arkfall, youd be getting rediculous amounts of weapon xp and thered really be no reason to use weapons anywhere else as youd level your weapon type to the max level so quickly you wouldnt know what hit you.

Yeah and the players revived count, ive been getting some crazy numbers on both and I know they arent right

I revived one person and it told me I revived 48..and also I had 28 kills and 0 damage dealt....

The 0 damage is probably because you have a cluster grenade equipped. I noticed this when I had one equipped and I took it off and the damage dealt went back to a number instead of 0.

I get plenty of weapon XP at arkfalls.
