PC Survivalist: Bonus Objectives of other Perks Deny Survivalists EXP

[DanteDDL]

Category: Perks leveling system

Reproducibility: Always

Summary: While using other perks weapons(excluding Berserker and SWAT) EXP is granted to that perk if perks bonus objective is scored.

Description: If you score bonus objective of the Perk to which the weapon belongs, than Survivalist gets no EXP. Instead Perk that uses that weapon gets bonus objective EXP.

Headshot kills with Sharpshooter weapons give +1EXP to Sharpshooter and no EXP for Survivalist. Firebug gets +3EXP for roasting Crawlers and Survivalist gets nothing. That applies almost to all classes that get bonus EXP for killing specific Zeds with their Perk Weapons. Demolition - Flashpound, Commando - Stalkers, Sharpshooter and Gunslinger - Headshot kills, Firebug - Crawlers. Berserkers "Kill Zeds near teammates" and SWATs "Kill Clots" seem to work properly and Survivalist gets normal EXP.

Online/Offline: Online and Offline

This is intended as the secondary objectives for perk specific weapons only counts towards those perks (i.e. head shots with the Lever Action will grant bonus xp to the Sharpshooter and not the Survivalist). The Survivalist XP objectives are only getting kills with any weapon and killing clots with any weapons. Additionally, non-kill specific objectives like healing teammates and welding doors will count towards Medic and Support respectively while playing as a Survivalist.

also survivalist still gets the xp but its not shown until you get a non bonus xp kill. Headshot 4-5 clots with a lever-action then kill one with bodyshots and you'll notice the white xp gained thing is much larger than what one clot would yield.
