Any chance you'll extend the Anniversairy patch until update 51 is out? Or is it something of a distraction from the main storyline?
Recently people have been winning Live Event rewards for landing the last hit, where as previously we'd seen a few months where most damage in total was used aswell as last hit, will you ever be handing out rewards based on that again? or have you reverted back to the last hit method for good now.
Someone quiet, who secretly hates everyone and wants to take over so he can slaughter the slackers and tighten up the ship.

I suppose it depends on how story-important the fight was, what the nature of the event was, and how much time I have, among other things. Total damage (aside from being a real pain to add up) tends to favor the people with a knack for finding events first, and it favors certain loadouts more than last hit does, I think...although neither of them can be called very balanced in that regard. But in general I need to have people at least somewhat hopeful that they have a chance at a prize in a combat event, and if that makes it a bit tougher for the people who tend to dominate events...well, those people are already relatively well catered-to. I have to spread the goods around. Really, I'd be thrilled to pieces if some lowbie n00b managed to wander in and score the last hit. 'Course, with last hit being more random-ish, that can also backfire once in a while *cough* Vector *cough*.
Remember the Maxson event? :p
Hmm..fair point i guess, i *do* remember DJSpartan having a lowbie on recursion and landing a last hit on one of the giant yeti's with a logic cannon 1.0. The laughs we had on vent about that...
So in a perfect world, time permitting, you'd be able to run both?
Yeah I'd love a most damage award for the Smith Virus event on vector. I think Tseng got the killing blow and already has a ton of event rewards. Meanwhile the most damage had to go to someone on my team of 4 since we got the CQ for the kill. The team consisted of Desc1ple (50), Apost1e (50), Darkkwave (50), and Noobhammer3000(36). Our faction has no event rewards, and we out did everyone else in damage for that event and come up empty handed. Oh well you win some and you lose some. Oops, I forgot that a member of our faction on syntax got a reward for finding one of the Morph look-a-likes at the fake Morph hunt event.

Well on recursion the DOE's team of six got the most damage and kill shot. VitaminI [Damage] and Trilateral [Killing blow] ended up with "good job" e-mail from Gray, thats about it
That and the way CQ's are rewarded isn't really reliable at all. I got a few hits in on spartan7 the other day and someone else who helped him kill poor little me but when they died I still got cqs.. from both of them! ..And I was just laying there, dead!
Outrageous!

And you can be a blue rezzer and kill the entire purpose of the reconstruction process, and hurt the flow of combat. *roll eyes*
Well I could spam area heals?
And recontructing stops the flow of combat, a quick rez and they are back into the action.
