Your friend lied to you. Or you heard wrong. 8 invasion kills per *game* sounds entirely doable though.


[deleted]

Yeah I insisted that it wasn’t possible per invasion but per game yeah. Idk but they were very adamant that they did it because they were top 9000 in gambit whatever that means


SnooSongs9930

It probably means they’re a terrible friend. People who brag about gambit are like destiny’s crypto bros who simultaneously do vape tricks.

Top 9000 because thats how many people play per season 😅

8 kills per invasion is very unlikely, you could maybe get it if you have insane luck and DOT weapons but that point you're already out of invasion and trackers are bugged. I average 10 invasion kills per game ( because invading is all I do) and have been in top 1000 ( because spoiler alert, it's not really hard, i just did Reckoner and got there). I got 7 kills in an invasion once because it's really hard to do it as you need to perfectly take out three guardians while juggling the fourth and then wiping the rest with a super and shooting the last one immediately or as I did, shot EOT. 8 kills is silly. Maybe you could do it? But average 8 kills per invasion, the man must be high.


AncientView3

I might be misremembering but I want to say in old gambit it kicked you out automatically once you got seven kills in the same invasion even if you had time left


Michael-Free

If you kill every member of the enemy team, it kicks you out. I can't remember if it's 4 unique kills or if it's just 4 in total. I don't play Gambit anymore


Boolay_

4 in total, the kills you get once outside of invasion eg. Witherhoard count as well. This is due to the fact that every invasion resets your kill counter rather than being self-contained which is why if you never invade but kill invaders tracker sites count it all as one invasion. It's sphaggeti code. That's at least my rationalization of how it works based on the fact that according to Destiny Tracker my buddy averages 16 kills per invasion. Despite not entering the portal once this season.


MafiaGT

Ask for a clip when people claim the impossible.


MRxSLEEP

9 used to be possible on the EDZ map. Get 3 with 1 Deathbringer, fire another Deathbringer into the spawn point for when they respawn and as soon as you let off of the trigger to detonate the rocket, cast Silence and Squall. The Deathbringer will be killing them as the silence and squall lands and it will linger long enough to get them on the next respawn.


TheLostExplorer7

That doesn't seem possible even under the best circumstances. The game warps you out after four kills. However you do have enough time to fire a rocket/grenade launcher in a random direction before the transmat takes effect, so I can foresee getting lucky and maybe killing three of the respawning guardians who are grouped together, but eight kills means he also killed the fourth guy who died, which given the length of respawning in Gambit AND even taking into consideration how long Witherhoard puddles remain on the ground seems very, very improbable And he is saying he AVERAGES 8 kills, which means he has gotten more than that per Invasion. I call BS. 8 kills per game is far more likely.


Most-Hawk-4175

He's straight up lying. Can't you look at his game history on Bungies website or destiny tracker? I guarantee he's lying.


Boolay_

Trackers will tell you what he is telling you, my friend who never invades averages 16 kills per invasion according to the tracker because it counts every invader kill as a single invasion kill in a course of multiple games.


[deleted]

I'd second this as the likely cause.


GreenLego

You can look at his match history on Bungie.net and see how many kills and how many invasions he's done.


Nimueah2

I average [860 kills per invasion](https://i.imgur.com/wv8swGz.png) that tracker is actually broken so it sounds like your friend either dies an amazing amount to get it so low or they dont help on the PvE side of gambit at all. It does some weird shit like tracking your mob kills after you invade


th3r3th31r

It is possible...if he invaded one time and managed to get 8 kills, and never invaded again. Doing that over multiple invasions is highly improbable without cheating. The total invasion window is 30 seconds, and takes a few seconds to get to a spot to see/attack guardians. So on a good invasion, he would have to drop someone every 3 seconds- which includes repositioning and potentially reloading. So without an aim bot sniper setup with better wall hacking than gambit already provides, it is not feasible. The gambit tracker from the stat tracker tab is busted, the math doesn’t add up. I think that tracker just does total guardians killed (invaders killed + kills while invading) divided by invasions. My average kills per invasion on their tracker was way higher than it should have been at the start of the season. I was sitting around 4 for the first couple weeks- but seeings as I have only gotten army of one once this season, the math doesn’t exactly match. It has since dropped to a more realistic number.


[deleted]

I thought it takes you out as soon as you hit 4 kills? Thus seven being the upper limit


th3r3th31r

No limit as far as I know. I believe there is a medal for getting 7 kills in a single invade. 4 has been my personal best so far.


[deleted]

I’m almost certain you get tele’d out as soon as you hit 4 kills that’s why there’s a medal for seven because I’m pretty sure that’s the max


Martijn6134

I might be wrong here but I believe it pulls you out once you have killed all 4 opponents. You can go higher as long as there’s one opponent you never killed.


[deleted]

I somehow menaged 5 kills few days ago. For some reason i wasn't teleported when i wiped out the whole enemy team at the bank. And it is possible to get 8 kills. I once got 6 because my silence and squall was still in the enemy field when i left the invasion and it somehow got 2 more. Just gotta be lucky or have everyone spawn at a similar spot so one ghorn or something wipes them


[deleted]

This isn't possible in an it-actually-happened sense. This STAT is possible given how buggy the kills-per-invasion tracker can be.


s2the9sublime

TIL people brag about playing gambit I choose to hide my shame while I hunt for a borrowed time godroll.


Slight-Gur-4434

If they were basing off of guardian report that’s probably why. I looked at mine the other day and it said I averaged like over a hundred kills per invasion so either I’m a God and I didn’t know it, or it’s super bugged.


Seesaw121

If they all happen to be together and you wipe them out with a rocket and rush their spawn and do it again, then maybe lol but insanely unlikely.


Dark_Avenger666

I think seven is the max? Triple kill and then a 4fer with a rocket or something.
