So yeah, it is ******* last shot....



Simply put: No. Unlike this anecdotal, "I think I should have won but I didn't win so it must be last hit," I've actually tested this by specifically granting the last hit to one of two alts, and they did not win.

That said, it isn't necessarily most damage, either. It could, for instance, be flagged at a damage threshold, e.g., first 20%, in which case you could very easily lose to a faster-locking ship with reasonable DPS output (or, especially, good alpha) despite doing more overall.

I stumbled on a gauntlet that was partially finished and abandoned. I killed a rat that appeared to be full strength, and it turned into a YELLOW wreck. Obviously I delivered both MORE DPS and the killing shot to the rat, and yet it was yellow. Perhaps the wreck goes to whoever lands the first blow?

No, I've tried that as well, look up thread.

Assuming what you've said is correct, having it triggered at a damage threshold (first X damage or first X% damage) seems most likely.

I have a feeling that smewhere in the CCP offices there are GMs rolling dice and taking bets on quantity of forum tears that will result from flipping this wreck one way or the other :D

It's just like a KM.

Final blow gets the KM, and in this instance, the wreck.

Well, maybe somebody was fighting against the Blood Raiders' armor repper for some time until he gave up, and when you came armor and shields were fully repaired. In that case he still could have delivered more damage than you and hence became the wreck owner.

Sorry, illogical argument.

If the target's armor and shields were fully repaired the person that comes along and kills it by doing %100 of its total damage would more than likely (1,000,000/1) do more damage.

Last shot gets the KM and the wreck.

A repper can restore more than 100% of HP if there is damage incoming.

True. But, given the fact that the last shot gets the KM/wreck AND the quote was, "maybe somebody was fighting against the Blood Raiders' armor repper for some time until he gave up" leads me to believe that he did very little damage. Chances are if he wasn't able to break the NPC's tank he probably wasn't able to tank the NPC's damage.

Whenever did that become a fact? And no, a ship with low dps doesn't necessarily have a bad tank.

They are not mutually exclusive but true 9/10 times.

I'm right, you're wrong. Not worth arguing anymore.

In this thread multiple people came to the conclusion that top damage gets the wreck after they tested it, even the people who believed before that the final blow gets the wreck. And no, you don't get a KM for killing a blood raider.

If the last shot would get the wreck how will you explain the observation that Kaivarian Coste made (the one that I was quoting)? I was trying to explain it based on the fact that top damage gets the wreck with a maybe unlikely argument, but certainly possible and not illogical. Until now I don't see another explanation, except that there is some bug or a random factor in determining the wreck owner.

Sorry, wrong. Tested over 100 times.

I know you don't get a KM for a BR...are you really that dense?

From the EVE Wiki: Container and wreck ownership:

"When an NPC is killed by a player, the player who did the most damage to it gets ownership of any loot containers that may drop and of the wreck left behind by that NPC."

That's what 4 or 5 people said in this thread and tested just a few days ago and it has been confirmed in other threads. We are talking about NPCs and wrecks btw, not about PVP and kill mails. The rules might be different.

well, the event is over, but here are my 2c.
I think the rules are different for normal NPC rats and this event rats. although I cant say anything about BC loot ownership rules, I did notice that bounty was NOT split if there were others on grid. I was getting full 10k or 120k if I killed the rat.

About the first 25 that A$$HAT$ came in and contested after I killed 20+ NPC's I overheated and turned up the DPS on the BC and BS. Lost most of those.

After that I watched the damage and timed it just right to land the final blow.

I won 99/100 after I switched to final blow. Many of those I ONLY landed 1 shot and won the wreck.
