Yep, that's what i thought as well. Having a catbomb during pvp will only determine your rank, but you will not lose any resources or gain experience in doing so. It will still complete the quest status though - i know this from personal experience as well

Having a catbomb during a sortie will determine the battle results automatically - leading to sunk ships if you started the battle. Hence why it's recommended to retreat in the taiha'd node or refresh at the formation screen prior to battle.

@Aredel

If you look above most of the information you provided is already known in the wikia. Some people refresh their browser to avoid bad routings, but it's not worth saving ammo and a battle if you will get banned (for making too many server requests). Highly unadvised to do so.

The thing i don't get is what you mean by refreshing when the ships appear. Are you saying that refreshing at or before the 2nd friendly ship image appears prevents the pvp from happening in the first place? (meaning the rank isn't determined and you can try it again?)
