What happens to salvage/recipe if inventory is full? (Team)

Two players are doing a mission together. One is PlayerA the other is PlayerB

A purple Hecatomb pattern drops, and it goes to PlayerB

But what if PlayerB's recipe inventory happened to have been full? What then?

1) It goes to PlayerA since PlayerA has room in his inventory?

2) The pattern is simply "deleted" since there wasn't room in PlayerB's inventory?

3) Other answer?

Common sense tells me 1) is or should be the correct answer. But as we know, things don't always happen or pan out that way

I imagine this is something only a Dev can give an accurate answer to, but if anyone happens to know, please respond. Thanks in advance

far as I know if someone who's supposed to get a drop has a full inventory it just goes *poof*.

I run my RL friend / roommate through farm missions occasionally. I let him afk at the door and the only condition is he has to give me all purple recipes and respec recipes he gets

So that's where my question kicked in. From what I am reading, I need to require him to delete his crap drops regularly, else I am potentially screwed out of good drops

I've always assumed, but never tested, that a critter has one "chance" to drop each type of thing and the potential drop goes to a random party member.

Stever's description makes it sound like one Hellion could drop eight inspirations (or eight recipes or whatever), one on each member of the team.

It's been confirmed that you can defeat one enemy and get "one of everything"- I think someone got one base salvage, one invention salvage, one inspiration, one recipe and one store enhancement from one defeat, and took a screenie.

When researching drop mechanics its often very easy to draw incorrect conclusions

For a short time I was under the impression if you were in a full team of eight, and defeated one foe, the game would "roll" once per player for recipes, so eight times. I have since concluded that is not the case, and the game actually only rolls once, and if a recipe is generated, the recipe is given to a random team member. At least that is my conclusion. If I am wrong please correct me

Possible suggestion to the devs: If a recipe drops in a team, consider possibly making the game only distribute the recipe to someone who actually has room for it. Being completely deleted instead of going to someone with room in their inventory doesn't sound very right

Doesn't matter whether it's a teammate, as long as you get some credit for the kill.

I'm seeing different answers here:

1. 8 man group kills a foe, each person in group has a chance to receive a drop from said foe, for a potential 8 recipes from one foe.

2. 8 man group kills a foe, game rolls to see if the foe had a recipe to drop. If yes, then it rolls again to see which of the 8 gets the dropped recipe.

Which is it? Has there ever been a red name confirmation on this?

Tangent question: Ambrosia

I have heard it said that Ambrosia ONLY has a chance to drop for the team mate who had the kill shot on the Greater Devourers on the bridges at the acid lake. From my experience, the occasions I'ved focused on picking off the riff raff instead of the GDs, I'd get no Ambrosia drops even while dropping AOEs at the GD's vicinity constantly.
