You have to hit a Mech that dies either by your fire or a teammate that is attacking a team mate that is nearly dead.

Generally, just try to stick with your team.

Shoot what they are shooting.

Shoot baddies that are shooting your team mates.

I've tried saviour kill farming and it is fun - if you or your buddy are close to death. Don't break off and try to taunt baddies (aka be a meatshield) and spread fire by torso twisting.

Collect a KILL or ASSIST on an enemy that dealt damage to a critically injured ally within the past minute (estimate on my part regarding the exact timeframe required) ten seconds

The ally must be critical damage for it to qualify; in theory this means your well-timed kill possibly saved your ally's life! Hence, a "savior" kill.

This link is for the patch notes where Savior Kills got added and explains exactly how it works: http://mwomercs.com/...97-05-mar-2013/

Savior Kills: Upon killing an enemy Mech. If that enemy had been attacking a teammate who has a critical component that is 50% health or lower within the last 10 seconds you will be awarded 7500CBills, and 150XP.

This...the mech you "save" doesn't have to be literally falling apart. I've had matches where I was quite surprised to have a couple of savior kills....really nice when it happens and its your 1st win of the day!!

Yeah, I think they dropped it to 6300 or something like that after 12v12.

On another note, I have never seen official confirmation of this but based on my personal experience I believe you can get multiple savior kills from one enemy. For example:

An enemy Atlas is shooting it out with a friendly Cataphract and Raven. Both the friendly mechs have no CT armor left and red internals. If you shoot the Atlas at any point in the 10 seconds before it dies and both those friendly mechs live you get two savior kills.
