Damage given and HP relationship

Player Questions Started Last reply 3 posts
Hello,

Maybe this question was here before (I am sure it was), but I guess it was sometime at the beginnings of this game since it's pretty vital question:

What's the damage calculation and HP relationship? I can demonstrate on small example what I mean:
I am level 30 orc, beating on some mob. Mob has 1.000 HP, and I beat it down to 100 HP. Which is 90% of it's health gone. Suddenly some bored high-level spellhowler runs by and shoots at my mob. She nukes it, and damage given is 3.000. But mob had only 100 HP left just before it. So my question is: which portion of damage is being calculated, e.g. for drops calculations? The 100 damage that nuker did on actual mob's HP, or 100 + additional 2.900 over that HP too? Is the ratio 900/100 me/nuker or 900/3000 me/nuker?

Haven't tested it ingame specifically for this, but I think it's the HP taken calculation, not overall damage given. Or am I wrong?

% of hp even if you hit for 51%, the kill is yours.

its the same for full exp vs no exp; kill over 51% then most of the xp is yours.
Yes like spudnik said.. And if you are in a party highest damage contributor is the one that makes the "kill" thus the server decides what to drop according to his lvl difference to the mob.. :)
