WGLF never procks with protective hits?

Is this a common problem for anyone? Ive never seen my WGLF get a token when taking a protection hit, did it get changed and they never bothered taking it off the description or does the protection point notification not count as a WGLF stack?

    Protection hits have been inconsistent for a while now and why MoM is also never used.

    It is something that needs fixed asap or change WGLF to also work off some other objectives in the game.

    I've actually seen Protection hits worming fine with WGLF, Mettle however...

    i've only ever really used WGLF for unhook bloodpoint bonuses, so i've never really noticed that the detection is off.

    perhaps it may be a sync issue.

    You get a stack if you unhook someone and they don't go down for 10 seconds, works if you get hit unhooking someone, any other time it is rare. At least that is my experience.

    It's common

    to add onto my post; getting protection hits outside of unhooking someone (jumping in front of a injured survivor during a killer chase) works out pretty well. try that!

    If you're healthy and your within around 4m to an injured survivor and take a hit that is a protection hit. Taking a hit if you're healthy while the killer is carrying a survivor also counts. Getting a safe hook save (15 seconds after unhook) also gets you a stack. Also there are two types of protection hits, one that gives you 200 bloodpoints and another that gives you 100 bloodpoints, the 200 bloodpoint kind is the one that gives you stacks towards WLGF. I hope this helped

    there are 2 types of protection hits in game currently. Both require another survivor to be injured. To get the one for stacks on wglf and MoM you need to be close to the injured survivor (200 point protection). The other is if the injured survivor is farther away/in a chase still and you basically are being a distraction (100 point protection). Basically think of the protection needed is you're taking the hit for them. You can also get protection hit points while you're injured as long as the other person is injured as well.

    Thanks for this in depth explanation. I had stopped using it as I tend to only unhook maybe twice in a match sadly (due to others being much closer / killer finding me first)...and if I want a perk just for extra points I go bbq on killers :D
