How long before I can gain reputation points again


Coldmed

Let's say I defeat player A and gain reputation points for it.

How long do I have to wait before I can get reputation points for killing player A again? (I believe it's 5 minutes?)

Also, if I kill player A before this cooldown period wears off, does the cooldown period reset? In other words, if I kill player A at 1pm, then again at 1:02pm, do I have to wait until 1:07pm to gain reputation points or will I get rep if I defeat them at 1:05?

Thanks!!

5 minutes. If you kill them, or they kill you, within those 5 minutes, the timer resets. This basically ensures PvP IOs won't drop in the course of normal PvP.

Hmmm, I wonder how long it would take to kill someone in the arena using hotfeet or burning aura... more than 5 minutes?


We don' need no stinkin' signatures!

One dropped on my first kill after the patch. Looks like they're back.

They owe me for a few hundred kills before the patch. It was only a Gladiator's Javelin; teammate got a Shield Wall unique not too long after that.
