    The suggestion is simple. The ship with the better % of his life left wins.

    For example, ship A has a max full health of 8k and ship B’s full health is 4k. Towards the end of the battle, ship A has 4K left while ship B has 3K left. Then ship B wins because he still has 75% of his life compared to ship A’s 50% even though ship A has more hit points left.

    This will be biased to defenders and campers. It will encourage saving HP more than what the situation is now, imho. I don't think that this is a style of play that needs to be encouraged.

    Slightly unrelated but I would like to see changes to capturing when the timer ends. Currently if a ship has lets say 50% capture and the timer ends its a draw. There should be overtime.

    Good points.

    However I don’t think the game play will change, it will just set a winner for more matches. Consider the defender vs speeder. If the defender has a better health, it is not that difficult catch a defender that is hiding or running away, at the same time speeders have better chance of dodging. If the speeder has a better health, he can’t just run away and wait for the defender to heal back hit points (as most have bandages). My prediction is that it will encourage more clashes at the end game if it is 1 v 1.

    Healers will have a fighting chance of winning a match in 1 v 1

    We could always try it out with the events to see how player behaves.

    I feel myself coming back again and again to the idea that we need a test server for these sorts of changes. Sure the devs play their game a lot, but nothing beats good player testing.

    I still don't think everyone will alter their setup just for a possible endgame scenario
