What you're not getting is that even if collectors want to do PvP, it's practically impossible to get both the solo and party minions due to the time restriction.

I have yet to be proven wrong. At the very least, I'm weighing my own personal experience of being a polite and helpful PvPer and playing with/against other polite, helpful players versus a negative statement made with no supporting evidence or explanation. And I do speak of some Balmung players when I say that. Not all of them, as I did say before that there are bad apples. Not everyone's going to be nice, and plenty of people sometimes just have a bad day, or a bad party. But that's far from exclusive to PvP and we all know this.
So I again ask for explanation of what makes it so toxic that "they don't deserve any rewards"?
It's not a "time restriction", it's a PRIZE in a competition. Seriously, in any other medium people would be like "wow congratulations for being the best at pvp" when they show off their mount (like when you see people with the A12 mount in the first few weeks), but instead it's a "time restriction" because everything has to be selfish in this game.
Here's an idea, if you want it so bad, do the content. If you don't get it big deal - the guy who did will enjoy the trophy very much, because it is what the prize is designed for.
Besides, the chances are that they will figure out a way to put them back into circulation in stormblood, as they have done with many other pieces of content (hell, they screw over crafters in every patch these days)
Time to get my Feast on then so I can taste the floor… fml. I’m a crafter, not a fighter D:
