Let me explain PvP in a very simple way

I find that my alliance will 100% lose if there isn't someone directing traffic in the chat with danger bongos

I do tend to win more when I'm in a more aggressive alliance.

There's aggressive and being proactive, and then there's running into a meat grinder the entire match. Usually, my alliances take the latter approach, so I rarely do Frontlines anymore.

If you are just attacking the crystals or collecting ceruleum the entire match, you ain't playing PvP, you are playing PvE. That will cause you to lose because BH5 and Soaring 20 are actually important.

Hope this enlightens people.

I didn't know BH5 and Soaring 20 was crucial to the game mode. Consider myself enlightened.

Sarcasm ? Hmm ? It is crucial because it allows you to wipe the enemy alliance towards the end and deny them objectives while winning their points. It's that simple.

Things I learned doing the shatter frontline the other day:

Ignore the big rocks.

Play SMN instead of SCH and have a group of SMNs just dump Bahamuts on the enemy groups.

Honestly, if you feel you're not great at PvPing, you should mount the Oppressors. There's no sense in wasting a good player by sending them to pilot a mech that just walks in a straight line and fires missiles at stationary towers.

What if players that are not good, are not good enough to know to pilot a mech or even how to do so?
