It does seem to be damage dealt, or more precisely the amount of HP/troops the enemy lost (i.e. one-shotting an enemy with full HP & equips > killing the same type of enemy with equips wiped out). Probably why lighter swords equipped with damage-dealing equips often hog MVP once they're strong enough to one-shot enemies, during long-range attack phase they could have wiped the troops of the enemies other than the one they attack in normal phase.
