Why this isnt a thing already? i mean i have always hated leveling process but games that allow me to do that via PvP made it so that i usually ended leveling every single class that game has to offer.
It could start from lvl30 up to lvl60 and divide it into brackets, first is lvl30-40 then 40-50 and lastly 50 to 60 to keep it even remotely balanced(but who really cares about balance when leveling tbh).
Dungeons and FATE's gets old pretty fast so adding another way to lvlup would be welcomed.

WoW-style? If they can somehow implement it like that I would be thrilled, but I think it's a little difficult with the state of queues/Company-restrictions at the moment.

While I love the idea in concept, given the state of pvp currently, I think I would hate it.
This is no different from offering esos to players for pvp. Can you hear it? "Lets just lose, I just want muh exp bonus" "I don't want to be here any more than you want me here, so lets get me out of here quick by not trying" -

It is already on, you start with rank 1 and the aim is rank 50. With higher rank you can wear higher gear. :D

I'd like the idea, it'd be an extra reward for participating in an exhausting or moderately fun activity (talking about Sieze and Frontlines). Actually they should've done this a while ago, but I guess they want us to use the PvE world for leveling and PvP's the equivalent of a amusement park game with points (tomestones), which to me is bs.

If they offered the exp as a end match bonus, like the PvP rank exp, than you'd get the eso farming mindset of "let's just lose and get our reward." We already get enough of that crap as it is.Quote:

Lastly, and this is the big one, this would have to be implemented in PvP game modes that are below level cap. Obviously, you can't que for a lvl 60 PvP match at lvl 30. You'd be totally screwing your team over, for one, and you'd die the second you came across a lvl 60 player. So that would mean they'd have to implement Frontline game modes at lower level increments. I can see this complicated the que process in a lot of different ways.
The roulette would be utterly destroyed. It already has a longer que time than direct queing for Seize because it tries to sort you into the empty lobbies for the occasional person who attempts to que for secure. Imagine if it had more game modes to pick from and try and find a match in. The little gremlin who turns that Duty Finder wheel would have an aneurysm. Even if it did work, we'd be dividing the PvP player base between people trying to level classes, and people who want to compete at their top level. This might work, maybe, if GC restrictions weren't in place, but, as things are right now, the ques are already terrible and this would only make them worse. There's just not enough PvP'ers to make something like this feasible for ques.
