Ah, okay. I see what you mean. You’re saying “possibly in addition to this… it could also be the person who clicked it gets credit”.
I have noticed that when I’m running with my friend, if I’m not to far away… like maybe 2 persons length away, and they close the rift, I won’t get the rift power. A 2 person length away is not far, so there might be other nuances to this as well.
