There doesn't seem to be a bug reporting sub-forum. Anyways, I have noticed I do not always get the Narc Kill bonus at the end of a match when I know for a fact I had a Narc on an opponent that died a few seconds later. I clearly see the Narc icon on the targeting reticule.

I wasn't sure at first but I have been paying attention for a few days before I posted this. Hard to reproduce the sequence of events but it's fairly evident to me now that this is occurring.

NARCed targets have to be killed by LRMs (and Streaks I think) in order to gain that particular bonus.

That's kind of a sad commentary.

That could explain it. Too bad, it's a good weapon for marking targets and keeping them showing on people mini map.

Yeah you need the LRM to deal the killing blow.
Which can be a bit rare since your NARC target is lit up on radar so everyone rushes it and direct fire can take the kill faster.

I think NARCer should get 50% of LRM damage score when LRM does not have line of sight.

Tag too!

Damit I feel cheated! I don't think getting damage derivative is needed. At least give us spotting xp, cbill's and wp's.

Sure, TAG as well.

As soon as I figured out how NARC bonus works, I unequipped them on all my mechs. And judging by how often I get NARC'd, so did everyone else in the pug queue.

They should just rename the NARC to Charity Missile. "Put yourself at risk to let your teammates do all the damage, steal the kill and get all the money."
