    Question Is this a glitch or what?

    Last week i got the ONYX medal for Assistant, to get the onyx medal you need 5000 assist in VERSUS multiplayer. Now heres the thing, when i reached 5000 last week, It reset back to 0/5000 assists.
    I'm not sure if this is meant to happen or what, but now i'm back at 1235/5000 assist. I still have access to the title "Team Player". If it's not a glitch, when i reach 5000/5000 again, do i get an xp reward?

    Probably a glitch. I've not seen other Onyx medal reset.

    I think it's supposed to do that: Don't you get like a '2nd tier' when you reach 5000 again?
    I am the one in ten, a number on a list,
    I am the one in ten, even though I don't exist.
    Nobody knows me, but I'm always there,
    a statistic, a reminder, of a world that doesn't care...

    Yeah, I remember this from the beta: once you reach Onyx on any progression based medal (i.e. the "complete this mode on highest difficulty" ones don't apply), it resets the score allowing you to continue ranking it up. I'm not entirely sure what happens when you achieve max again (it most likely just re-awards the XP gain), but it's kind of a cool mechanic when you consider that maxing commendations or prestiges in Halo and CoD respectively removed the progression elements completely whereas these ones appear to be infinite.

    Yes you can technically "prestige" in most Onyx medals. It is not a glitch.

    u get bronze, then silver then gold then ony for 5000. when you get another 5000 the stars become numbers denoting how many times you have earned the onyx medal so at 10000 assists your gonna get the number 2 under the medal on the medals page. I have this on a different medal but I dont think i got more exp for earning onyx a second time
