Kill Combos

I have a question about kill combos. Today I got to the point where "holy crap!" kept flashing up on my screen, about 10 times in a row or so. After the last "holy crap" flashed on my screen I was taken out by a rock and ghosted. The thing is my holy crap kill never showed up in my game stats. What's up with that? Is that caused when you ghost too quickly and don't "pause" long enough for the kill to register? I would've had a bingo if that didn't happen

yeah, if you're ghosting at the time the reward would register, it doesn't register. It's happened to me a few times while going for bingo. All you can do is make sure you wait before dying

. If you're lucky, you'll kill something with your ultima and prolong the timer until after you ghost. Only works with a short ghost though. Don't despair, you'll get it.

lol I think I posted too soon. Just got a bingo, so now I'm not as mad anymore

The practice that made it easier for me is that I would purposefully *stop* when I got the streak I was looking for and run away for a few seconds ... then actually start hunting monsters again.

I have actually had it record far fewer of these than I got, with no ghosts or deaths involved, even though it was announcing them to me as I was racking them up. And in a number of these cases, I was not even running artifacts, just luck to have a piercing +6 or vorpal. I have come to think that like so many things, the communications with the server can loose things.

Well, I found this out awhile back when I thought it was odd they weren't recording. But it's like a timer... if you get a double kill you'd have to wait about 4-5 seconds to allow it to register before going on to any other kill spree. So say you go from a double kill to a multi-kill... it will just skip recording the double and go to the next one. So you can only get one kill spree per run... Even though it may say them out loud it won't record the last one until you've stopped your spree.
