In the recent time I have noticed, that exploding enemies like cursed thralls, Exploding Shank, Fanatics and Screeb do not activate certain abilities and perks which is really annoying imo. For example, killing such an enemy with volt shot does not activate the perk after reloading. On hunter, using the "Ember of Torches" fragment does not refund the melee ability that is needed for many builds and perks. I am sure there are a lot more examples that I just don't know about.
I would love to see this get fixed or if it is intentional maybe changed because it is just annoying.

Those units don't count because they're considered "vehicles". Been like that since Destiny 1.

Cursed thrall/screebs die by suicide at low health.
