Default Need consensus: Pet Raven Mechanics - Bites Expansion

Hey all, is there a community consensus on the Pet Raven mechanics of Bites? The card reads, “Go up an extra level for any combat in which you slay Bats with the aid of your Pet Raven.”

The question is, when you help someone kill a Bat monster do you get a level as well? I personally think you do, my friends do not.

My POV: one level is rewarded for combat to the player you helped. You, the helper with Pet Raven, get a level as well. Why else would the card read “any combat?” Pretty cut and dry.

Other POV: “extra level” implies you, the person with Pet Raven, have to be originally awarded a level to be able to gain an extra.

Thoughts?

The wording of Pet Raven is from an early set before all the wording was made more consistent. The official answer is that the owner of the Pet Raven gets the extra level, even if that is the helper.
