I don't even bother trying to be at the top of the list......always get 2 green items when I do. It I just tap whatever and leave tho, I usually wind up with a purple.
Toons aiming down a scope could be part of the problem. But I do agree that there should be some type of score bonus for reviving. It would also be nice if downed toons appeared as pink dots on the mini map.

I agree, some players tend to get a little too wrapped up in their score at arkfalls. I'll go ahead and admit it...I've done the old kill a mob and split tactic on a major arkfall before. I didn't make it onto the scoreboard top 20, but I still got my xp, keycodes and a decent purple item. That alone makes me want to spend less time at arkfalls spewing bullets and more time reviving and healing with a bmg.
Currently at 97/100 revives and as previously stated I seem to always end up having people "auto" revive half-way through me reviving them. Couple that with the "phasing"/"disappearing" act player's characters tend to have and it makes for a frustrating pursuit, not impossible, but frustrating.
When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."
I will say that I revive people during arkfalls I mean i've yet to complete that part of the pursuit mainly as people just self revive but I will still revive others even after that part of the pursuit is done.
Also I would agree that bonus points should be awarded at the end for reviving others i've been all over the top 20 scoreboard but reviving others does have it's own rewards such as new friends, after reviving someone in a raider arkfall they found me in headlands transit and even said thanks for the save and added me as a friend

LOL< theres such an easier way to get your hundred revives, just get in a group, stand inside the red circle and blow your self up, have group member revive, rinse, repeat... it works real fast with a full group.
lol stand above them shooting their dead body. admit ive done it a few times to those scrubs. thye will never get the point though. lets lob as many grenades at the crystal as possible, it does more damage and it goes faster.....
funny how 5 minutes with a tachmag pulser and you have 1000s of more damage than these people that been trying for 20 mintues with rockets/GLs.
learn to play people, destroy the crystal do not shoot the skitterlings, eventually they all die when you shoot enough holes on the crystal and they send back up, then repeat. at the arkfalls where it says kill the hellbug swarm be my guest and use as many gernades and rockets as you want. playing proper create more arkfalls which create more keycodes and more arkfall kills if that's what your going for is kills.
