To Everyone Playing a Poison Controller...

Fewer kills and a kill must be rep valid to yield a drop, which restricts it by 5 minutes. For example, if team WARE scores 85 kills in an 8v8, only 16 of those kills may possibly be rep valid within a 10 minute match. This means only ~19% of an extremely high scoring offense's kills had a chance to drop a PvP IO (this low percentage is then multiplied by the actual drop rate to yield the effective rate). Considering it is common practice to cycle the same select enemies more often than evenly killing all 8 enemies on a team, this percentage is very likely to be even lower. However, if a team of 8 PvErs were to defeat 85 enemies (a trivial task), 100% of those kills would have a chance to drop a purple. Now, it does not appear that the PvP IO drop rate is similar to the purple drop rate. It appears that it has been adjusted to reflect the noted restrictions on IO drops; however, it has not been adjusted enough to make the rate comparable to the purple drop rate. The PvP IO drop rate was adjusted downward to decrease the yield of a PvP farm, but this had the consequence of ruining the drop rate for normal (read: actual) PvP. Since the actual rates have not been released, I can't really say much more than that.

This is totally on topic.

That would then increase our chances if we hypothetically got 85 kills in a 10 minute match from 16 to 30 (assuming hypothetically we killed Zwillinger 16 times and removed his 2 from the original 16). That would then increase our % of possible pvp ios from the ~19% of kills up to ~35% of kills making it substantially more profitable to hypothetically fight Chicken Nuggets.

I guess using those useless breakfrees helped me to miss that.

What ever happen to the smart PvP'ers in this game?
