Default MoV distribution in PBs

Seems to me the first group to shoot a ship gets the MoVs and MoTs. I had a kill shot in the last Port Battle and didn't get credit for the kill. Not trying to be greedy but is it the first group to shoot someone who gets the rewards/loot?

Yes. Will be even more fun in 1.23 because FLS nerfs the PB reward and increases the kill reward. Being in skirmish group or first line group will be great, everyone else will get the shaft.

Speak now or forever hold your peace. They have been actively reading and following feedback about this patch. Now is the time to make this an issue if it is indeed unfair.

Right, that has always helped before.

Well I don't exactly see it as unfair, but that's just me, I go to port battles to win ports not to get MoVs. It used to be MoVs to the kill shot group, but somewhere they secretly changed it? Maybe I missed a devlog or something....

That is no reason not to make it fair.

Don't worry, I remember how cynical you are. You don't need to remind me

I know you do, my post was more as a general statement to get people to support your cause, not directed back at you. I've seen your posts in the test bed. Others should follow suit and post there if they agree with you.

Atm:
First to shoot, first to get mov exept if you don't shoot an ennemy for 2 minutes

It means that in pb, skirm group have to shoot on all ennemy and keep them in battle to get all the movs

In fact skirm can't do that but will get all the mov when charging a fleet already defeated.

When ennemy begin to flee on for example 24v15
If skirmisher put 8 into battle and keep into battle and decrease their speed, the lsb ships will sunk them.
Anyway skirmisher will get all the mov for the 8 ships sunked.

MOVs should be distributed evenly among everyone in the PB, with tiebreakers decided randomly. To favor certain PB rolls or positions with more rewards makes no sense. This seems lke a rule that was set up before you could flag someone as traitor.

If people join a PB just to get a share of the MOV, and then sail off on their own to avoid combat, they can be flagged as traitors.
