Overwatch – How to Maximize Team Score in Junkenstein’s Revenge

overwatch

My goal is to hit 5 gold stars, but no matter how well our team communicates, even in a pre-made 4 man brawl, where all of us are supporting each other, and not dying at all, we can just barely clear 4 stars in the results screen.

How can I maximize the team score in Junkenstein's Revenge? Do I need to be getting more headshots? Is team accuracy factored in, is how fast we clear the waves factored in?

It's probably a little late since the Halloween event is ending, but my friends and I spent the past couple days figuring out the scoring on the event.

There are 3 main sources of points on the brawl:

  1. Door Health
    • Taking damage on the door results in a static loss of points, as well as losing the potential points for killing the zomnic/shock tire that damages it.
  2. Survival Bonus
    • There are incremental survival bonuses that are awarded throughout the game, up until the last boss fight.
    • These bonuses increase over time as long as nobody dies. When someone dies, the bonus is reduced significantly.
  3. Elite Bonus
    • The speed at which you kill each boss adds a bonus on to the total score.
    • There is a max of 100 bonus for each Reaper, 250 for Roadhog and Junkenstein each, and ~200 for Mercy (maybe more?)

Additionally, the Elite and Survival bonuses seem to get multiplied by some factor when the final score is applied on a win.

I don't know exact calculations of the various final bonuses, but I can say that to get a high score you should:

  • Die as little as possible
  • Kill elites as quickly as possible
  • Don't let the door take damage

A 5-star score is possible with deaths, door damage, and/or slow boss kills, as long as you make up for it in good performance in other areas.
