They do, and for the most part they will just drop at whatever level you are, although there are some bugs when higher levels kill much lower levels. It's not a really sound method for farming them or anything, but in 8v8s they do drop sometimes, but I think there is still some kind of timer after you kill someone. Could be wrong about that.

What level difference can you be? If I remember it used to be within 5 levels, but I could totally be making that up. Yayee terrible memory! Thanks guys! |

They do drop, but very, very seldom.
You're better off just farming them, honestly.

Farming them is definitely a faster way to accumulate them, but I've gotten some pretty decent drops from 8v8 practices and kickballs, although it's been a while since I've gotten any PvP IO drops period.|

I would say that 8v8 is about as fast a way to accumulate them as zone PvPing in RV, and I don't have the means to farm them :/.

Zone PvP with 2 - 3 coordinated people is many times faster than arena 8 v 8's for earning PvP IO's.|

First off, say you have 2 hours to game, most likely more than half of that time is going to be sitting in Pocket D. Second, a lot of matches end up being one sided, or kills in general are low because matches are set for no HD. Additionally, most teams you don't cycle everyone, just a few players who are more apt to die.
When I used to spend more time in RV with a friend (@Trance) we'd dual stalk for a few hours and end up with 6-8 drops on a regular basis. Even on nights where we (WARE) practice for 2 - 3 hours and end up beating teams by 30 or 40 kills we are lucky to see 1 drop spread across the entire team.
