Also disagreed. Go ahead and google it. First results you get for Dragoon is actually about the best Dragoon rotation (which is what theorycrafting is more commonly used for) or PvE gear sets. There's barely anything about gear... most likely because we don't have the variety to properly create useful sets.

Don't get me wrong, you're not far from the mark. Figuring out which gear is BiS for your job is not difficult by any stretch of the imagination, but that doesn't disprove anything that I said. In fact, one of the reasons that the BiS is so easy to figure out is because there is a lack of gear available, and the gear that is available is made even more limited because of restrictions on Morale Bonuses. It also doesn't change that fact that most BiS loadouts for PvP are theoretically a mix of PvP and PvE gear (this would be the case if Morale bonuses were allowed). Dedicated PvP players would be interested in taking the extra step to figuring out what works best. Casual players often just go with whatever they have, and might not even know there's a difference.

It also doesn't change the fact that item lvl 210 gear is an easily obtained by anyone and everyone who can buy Eso gear and upgrade it using Void Ark spoils... yet people complain about morale bonuses that only a small fraction of the PvP community could even take advantage of and really wouldn't change anything, because it would be competing with an item level that is now replacing the standard for PvE.

I'll just crapshoot a couple of ideas here:

- PvP themed house furniture (I'd like an allagan tomelith in my FC's front yard);
- Tradable minions (for selling on the MB);
- Emotes (example: /huzzah with a GC flag in your hand);
- Chances to receive crafting and melding items other upon leaving a match after it's over;
- Gil rewards depending on which place your GC ranked during a match;
- Being able to buy Clan mark logs or similar items through Wolf Marks
- Mounts of course! I wish they'd add a variation of the following:

More minions/mounts/housing stuff etc for higher ranks might make PVP more interesting for people, Armored fenrir? i would say no. Would be a slap in the face to those who farmed 1kk MGP For a plain fenrir :P

- Edit

Don't wanna see anything tradeable tbh. Whats the point then in having a high rank?

I hope we get fancy mounts!

Maybe not an armored Fenrir but something like an Allagan vehicle of sorts would be really cool.

Like someone said earlier, a Allagan Tomelith would be really cool as a housing item.

A dragon. Allagans are all about enslaving dragons right? Lets get something similar to the Twintania mount as a PvP reward.

PvP Fist Bump make it happen. It just screams manly we just killed everyone fist bump :) Well as healer i mainly just watched everyone die but still, go team!

I personally don't like that they removed the rank restrictions from the old gear i100/i110. If they were going to remove the rank restrictions, at least make it so that you can only dye that piece of gear if you had the required rank. I know a lot of people that are upset that they removed the rank restrictions for this gear. I really hope they don't do this for the i180 because Rank 50 isn't something that should just be discardable after another expansion releases.

The rank 50 stuff should never have had a rank. It should have been the new starter set at 60. Since they didn't adjust the morale on the old stuff to make i i150 or any old sets. And yes I know pvp gear isn't a big deal in pvp, but it doesn't hurt to look a little stylish when throwing it down.

It makes a slight difference but not super big. But if they plan to release higher iLevel PvP gear (i200, etc) then yea I agree, the i180 currently shouldn't have a rank, but the higher end ones should.
