Hi I'm AutoThreadBot! Don't mind me, I'll just be adding the helper team to this thread so they can see it. A human will get to you soon.

Would I need to use the Event "block drops item from breaking"?
https://meta.denizenscript.com/Docs/Search/dropped_item#block drops item from breaking

Can I determine if this event fired because of the NPC and not a player?

You can use this for npcs picking up items and checking them.
