How does rank progression work for co-op?

[StoriesBonesTell]

Playing with a buddy. he dies several times, I die no times. He gets +100 something rank I get either 0 or -20. How does this work?

As your rank goes up the amount of deaths before you begin to lose rank points goes down. It's likely that your buddy is a lower rank than you, allowing for a higher number of deaths before losing rank points.

I'd imagine co-op raiding is ranked as a team and not on an individual's performance, so one player can't "boost" their co-op teammate.

Hes 5 levels higher than me and three prestige ranks higher than me. He runs in like a sperg and dies. I clear the room then pick him up. Hes getting points im getting 0s. Does the game punish you for picking players up?

If he's three ranks higher than you this sounds like a bug. Just to be sure this is a listing of the available ranks in-game https://i.imgur.com/Mb3GThQ.png and he would have to be Bronze 4/Silver 1 minimum.

It doesn't make any sense to me that reviving a player would punish you, but I'm not certain if it does/does not.

We just switched to me hosting and now hes not getting any points. So im not sure if its working as intended or just a bug

[MuskelKater]

same happends to me and my friend. The host often get the points and the other 0 or negativ. Somehow it feels buggy, cause on one map we were fooling around killing each other and died a lot, after escaping we both got +100 points.

yep, also the xp gained for the bugged player is 1 xp per trap

I'm 100% certain its bugged, A friend and I only did raids together for the first 3 days after we got the game. The first day we ended at the same rank and close to the same amount of points. The second day he somehow ended behind me by 2000 points so we started checking what he was getting at the end of raids, and he was getting 0 if he didn't die, and negative if he died even once. So we tried restarting the game and switching host a few times and it seems the host always got a correct amount, but the secondary player was all over the place, they might get full, half, or nothing of what you should be getting regardless of deaths. So it seems that the co-op player was getting penalties for dying but not always the reward for completing.

ah so thats why i noticed that today i thought maybe i was hitting a soft cap.

It's definitely bugged the same is happening to me, and it has nothing to do with the difference in ranks between players. In fact if you swap hosts the reverse happens
