This is still an issue in August...come on bungie, either fix it or take the pvp portion out of the quest entirely

Yup im facing thr same problem It doesnt always count

Playing rumble, only using ticuu's, 5 kills in, no change to quest progress. Several crucible matches now in fact, control as well, barely any progress on stage 2 of catalyst. IT IS NOT WORKING. PLEASE FIX, all these hot shots dancing around with their hand cannons and shotties, meanwhile I'm trying to use a bow for nothing...

I noticed the same thing, but the issue is that the only kills that count with it are when it’s a normal arrow kill. Kills with sacred flame don’t count. Because I personally am very good with bows, and I knew something was up when I didn’t get much progress toward the quest out of three separate games of control. I’m sure you’ve noticed that when you get a kill with the bow, the kill feed shows that you killed them using nothing. I’m sure bungie is working on it as we speak.

I have the same problem. My quest is stuck in 4/50 (Step 2 - Guardian Kills).

It doesn’t matter what weapon you use the bow a shotgun a rifle a fusion or grenade launcher you will not get any credit for guardian kills I’ve had at least 50 or 60 guardian kills they are not adding up bungee fix the stupid game.

I have the same problem, but it's not my main issue with the catalyst quest in general. Making everyone sweat their backsides off in crucible against felwinter apes for a PVE exotic is cancerous and Bungie should know better. At the very least, there should be an either/or option to get progress faster in PVP.
