Poll: Would you still PVP OFTEN if there was no XP?

Probably not, as I am one of the few people who dislike the new pvp changes and as main healer who enjoys healing by far the most in this game I feel like a lp-battery for everyone else. I'm not saying the changes are bad though, I know many people enjoy them, I would just personally not do any pvp with them if i didn't get xp.

I never did PvP for the experience points, so if they removed it, I would still play.

only way to "fix it" is remove all rewards, but then no one would do it at all. People don't want to play something and get 0 reward.

Botting and afking became rampant and to some degrees, accepted/tolerated once XP was offered. Before that, we played to win. We WANTED to win. Not for XP, not even for tomes. We were competitors in a competitive game mode. We wanted to win. That was the whole point of competing, not just quick-stop XP.

So yes, I would, because I DID. And I enjoyed it more then. As it stands, I still prefer to PvP on my already 70 main, so I'm not getting XP out of it anyways.

Yes, I would. I played quite a bit of Feast and Frontlines prior to Stormblood and only stopped because I've heard (and seen) nothing but bots or people who clearly don't give a hoot about winning. PvP was fine after they finally abandoned GC restrictions.

nope. I only do it for the glamour. The exp nerf was super lame, I didn't take advantage of it when it was good. :(

I dont really care about XP. Sure it would nice level my classes with 8v8 or Frontlines. But running dungeons is way more effective. Besides of that, i would pvp more often, when it would be more fun.

I pvp'd more with garo and stuff....now that i have what i want, if they removed it?

No.

It's been really nice to level dps with.

It was nice for awhile to get people to play Frontlines. The bad thing though (from what I saw) is that people just joined and either afked or didn't care to try/win. But even worse now, the botting is just ridiculous. I would vote to remove exp completely and bring back the competitive spirit.

I would do PvP without any EXP if they would change it back to the PvP system from HW.

exp is a nice thing it makes the leveling process so much easier however it does not belong in PvP a content that was designed for friendly and fun competition. before they added exp people actually TRIED to win cause the rewards were really nice. but because of the addition of exp people don't give two-shits if they win or lose cause they know they get exp and tomes even if losing. so my answer YES i would play PvP without receiving exp points because prior to 4.0 it was actually fun to play not frustrating as you shout and yell and scream at your team mates to give a shit about receiving a victory.
