    Now the only question is whether or not it'll have a tournament system and/or seasons.
    There are actually other, way more critical questions regarding PvP in ARR, like how will the inherently "laggy" client-server system translate to manic PvP button mashing?

    Instant Ability Eaten

    He spammed Foresight after using Flash but didn't get the buff. The Foresight animation went off, the CD was triggered but no Foresight buff. How is this going to translate to manic PvP button mashing? My guess is there is going to be a lot of frustration and rage, especially on long, important CDs like Hallowed Ground.

    Honestly, if I want open-world gank-based PvP I'll go play EVE again...

    I prefer organized, instanced PvP

    You make it sound like you can run darn near across a room while slidecasting an AoE. Ummm, no.
    Yes, I do. You don't have to go across a room, two steps into a doorway or behind a column will suffice. The point is that it can be done, i.e. you can cast a spell behind an obstacle to avoid LoS while casting self targeted aoe.

    You guys responding to this in any serious nature (aside from dae, whos got a valid suggestion, i'm open to seeing any of you in Blaz, or any other fighter) are making yourself look silly, OP is troll post, even if poorly done. systems not even out yet, and for you to judge something before it comes into existence, especially when you damn it before conception, is ignorant, and the latter of the two is called abortion... just sayin

    Most people don't want real, balanced, competitive PvP they want to tag along on farming runs and roflstomp unequipped noobs with time-is-all-that-is-needed welfare weapons and raiding cast-offs.

    Just because it isn't your perfect version of pvp doesn't change the fact that this is blatantly "Player Versus Player" content. So cynical.

    Didnt Yoshi said there'll be HIGH speed or latency somethign to make it smooth in only wolf den and other certain area but not all zone? I need find where that post was...

    Also, this is why it worried me about solo que due to 1 tank 1 healer 2 dps que, It'll even be worse than Duty finder for Dungeon. Due to how much crowd of Final Fantasy player hating PVP... Premade que should be fine though (Hopefully)

    Yeah I know that's a big problem. SE has said that in 2.1, certain areas such as Raids and Wolves' Den battles will be optimized and have increased performance as far as latency goes. Not sure if it'll be a good enough solution, but we'll just have to wait and see. I'm just happy they actually acknowledged it's a problem.

    I think most people think the pvp will fail, because there is no skill required.. - button smashing and GCD.. lol

    Who looks for pvp ina FF game anyway?
    I do. I happen to love ballista and was waiting for ffxiv to bring back the final fantasy PvP. Thanks Yoshi.
