Bjora event mobs not triggering sigil stacks

[Moira Shalaar.5620]

On some of my characters I use a sigil of cruelty with stacking ferocity. I have noticed that consistently in Bjora Marches that the stacks on the sigil do not increment with event related kills. Since the vast majority of kills in that zone revolve around events, this pretty much makes all stacking bonus on kill sigils worthless there. Is this intended or a bug?

That's intentional. These mobs also don't give you EXP or any loot.

Thanks. I hadn't paid attention to them not giving XP. Its a bummer though.

IIRC, most anything in an event which is scaled up - for example, an elite trash enemy appears where if only a few players were around it'd be a normal trash enemy, or a greater number of enemies than usual - does not give out exp, loot or kill counts for anything.

I assume it's in place so people can't farm champion bags by simply scaling events up, but idk. It acts kind of strangely at times.

Like Tequatl battles, only events and defeat of Teq drop loot.

I'm not concerned about. XP or loot, I want the kills to actually proc the sigil so I get the on kill stacks I am supposed to get, well, on kill. I think they need to rework the mechanic that triggers the incrementing of the stacks to that it recognizes actual kills, and not only when the kills generate XP
