If you had a PVP io afk farm: one killer vs 4 ressers; and went to two vs four would the total pvp drop rate double or stay the same?

Any one?

You are saying two killers vs one killer on 4 targets?

Probably not double since it would be hard to control the alternation of defeats between killer 1 and killer 2, both AFK. Theoretically it is possible to double the drop rate that way.

another way to rephrase question:

8 man team kills one player in WB. Does each person on team have same chance for IO as if he defeated somebody solo 1 vs 1? Or does chance for io get divided by 1/8?

No, it's just like regular IO drops and the chance gets divided. First there's a roll to see if there is a drop, then if you're on a team there's another roll to see who actually gets it.

One of the reasons arena PvP is terrible for getting drops.

You'd have to have 3 teams, 2 solo and 4 on the third team in order to double your chances.

I've gotten more pvp drops from arena matches then in pvp zones. Maybe its just dumb luck or not I don't know but thats been the case for me.
