hey lets make an event for team combos, BUT only give credit to the one who primes and no credit to the one that detonates. OMG so fair and fun. I'm sure no teams will only be made up of classes with priming powers only. Such a well thought out idea ![]()

Yeah, that'd be a horrible plan if that'd been what they did. Fortunately, it isn't, so it's not actually a bad plan.

interesting that you think that. I guess some player haven't actually tried the event yet

Tried it, finished it. Used the templar, so had my cake and ate it too. But here's what Blair Brown had to say on it:
There are two classes that can solo this.
You get credit for the challenge by either initiating or detonating, but the combo has to go off.
Templar is a good choice

I did it with a Legionnaire and an Ele in two different PUGs. Definitely got combos in both according to the little medallions at the end.

did two matches using detonating powers only, got zero credit while the primer players got tons, so yeah, not so much

Not sure on the variance. It has worked for me without issue

you're not going to convince me against my own experience unless you can somehow explain why it wouldn't work for just me

Nope. I've had my share of points on my assassin.
But I could assume that the scoring might be bugged, because I had no a single point on my Keeper. ~5 matches, SC, VS, etc + rest of the team doing stuff - one'd suggest that at least something would do some good.

I have played three matches and haven't got a single combo can someone please point me in the right direction? Played as a Necro and Alchemist.
you're not the only one having trouble, something odd is going on here, or I'm being trolled...or both...probably both

That's odd... bugged, perhaps?
Well, the simplest answer would be to solo routine with your templar. Wrath of heaven + spell purge is aoe combo heaven. One run, and you'll be set. Then you can rejoin the masses and help the community by detonating like a boss.

It worked for me (for the record). I prioritised frozen targets with Long Shot, and I was tracking the challenge, so I saw every increment.

I am going to just shift all the blame to my teammates lot of speedrunning AW oh well guess I'll promote my Templar and grab purge was really hoping to avoid that.

I don't think you are trolled. There is something/everything obviously bugged with combo detection. I tried templar and everything works fine. Then, I tried necromancer. Ice mine freezes properly, mind blast sort of detonates as there is huge spike of damage and on silver mooks are dead all around me. Alas, no combo medal and no combo progress in the challenges. I then tried elementalist and froze mooks with winter grasp and detonated with immolate. Mooks are instantly dead but there is no combo medal for whatever (well, maybe I did not do enough for a medal but I think I did more than enough) but there is progress in combo challenge. I'm puzzled almost completely what counts and what does not count. I'm also bugging out with HoK ring and death syphon due to lag as I'm getting no heal from neither up until certain point and then, I die and am able to walk around with skull icon and full health. I then tried solo and HoK/death syphon works well to some point and then again started to bug out. TLDR: This game is really a mess.

What kit/power did you use to detonate, and what sort of combo did you detonate?

Eldritch detonators are basic combos on frozen. It will not count.
Yes, I now understand that but there should be some clarity. Also, it seems that cross-class basic combos do not not work as well. According to description of the challenge it should though. Sort of messy and unclear.

You have to kill the target with the combo otherwise it doesn't count.
Been doing the challenge with a Templar on Perilous and when my combo didn't killed the enemy, killing it the old fashion way (blunt trauma to the head) didn't advance the challenge. It only worked when I specifically killed the target with the combo.
Same thing with the Arcane Warrior. If I killed the enemy under a static cage with a Stone Fist, the challenged worked. If the same Stone Fist / Static Cage combo didn't kill the enemy and I finish it with anything else, the challenge doesn't register.

I thought that was obvious. The team combo medals always involved killing enemies with the combo.

Yeah... I am in agreement here.
First, cross-class kind of spells out that you must use primers/detonators from two different classes, hence crossing classes. There are a few classes that can do both, like the Templar, but those are exceptions.
Second, how else would this be tracked if not by kills? It's kind of par for the course.
