What's Your 3 Biggest Gripes About PvP?

Sleep duration is far far too long. Diminishing returns dont really work well for sleep either. Scholar dies, raised by summoner 1, summoner 2 dies, raised by scholar, swiftcast is back up, raise, raise, raise, limit break, raise, raise, thats assuming your team lasted long enough to get to that point. I got 10 kills in a match and it was a draw. Ridiculous. Now its either like that, or its the opposite which is worse than a forever match, sleep, sleep, sleep, kill one, kill 2 , focus 3 , 4th player is asleep still and wasted purify. 1 minute fight. Terrible lol.

Basically, less sleep time, Less importance for summoner to be in the party, a limit on raise or something. I love the concept but it just doesnt work in arena. Heals can keep raise but there has to be some kind of limitations.

Also limit break is just an ohko, its either useless to do it, or done on the healer, kind of a waste to have it in pvp. Heck most matches are so fast you never do it anyway. I love the pvp, but it does need some fine tuning.

Fixing sleep is simple to do. make all pvp gear have a base sleep reduction to make sleep be 15ish seconds without materia, sleep either makes the fight boring in winning or losing. It isnt fun either way.

Ressurection, eh not sure what to do there with keeping balance. have to think more. Maybe on 2nd raise of a player in pvp they gain heavy as well every subsequent raise, only in pvp for 5 seconds.

I love how half the people have no clue what they're talking about. I'm willing to wager most of them played 4 matches and gave up cause it's "too imbalanced"

Firstly, about sleep. You have a healer on your team.. every match. Esuna/Leeches takes 1 sec to cast. It takes pure luck to get a 'damage interrupt' on that. Healers need to remember that skill exists.
secondly, melee hitboxing. My computer doesn't technically meet the minimum requirements of FFXIV and i have very little problem functioning as a WAR in pvp. Never getting the "too far away" error when im on them.
thirdly, ill follow what this thread is asking for after the above tips to save some of you from frustrations.

1) Lack of players at the moment
2) Lack of variant compositions
3) respec cost, ill certainly agree with that one

Its not that sleep is hard to deal with. its that if sleep is in play you have to play the entire match around sleep.

Also it doesnt say too far away, the skill just blinks and never goes off. You can sit there and mash the button and if they are jumping, most likely it wont. I jump with them and that usually works fine.

There is PvP in this game ? Where ? I have found a game called tag and Jump Jump goose . But no PvP

The way I see it, PvP is one of those things that can be endless content, at the moment it's higly flawed, but once it's more balanced, fine tuned, more maps, and just worked up over the patches and expansions, I'll be glad it was put in.

I play Dark Souls PvP to this day, almost 2000 hours, mind you that game has one of the best battle systems ever created and endless depth, but I'm not giving up hope that one day ARRs PvP will be pretty fun and less broken :D

Biggest gripe ? people exploitin to win. yeah I'm lookin at you, bunny hoppers on crack, you guys are a shame.
