1) Add an specific area for "Dueling" Practice 1 on 1 PvP. Dueling can only be done in that area only like Wolves' Den.
2) Add a small PvP Map 8 on 8 that is non Grand Company Related with 3 Flags to capture.
These Two Ideas would be really welcome to add some variety and very good changes for FFXIV PvP.
Well, I really like your first idea as long as it required participants to actively sign up at the PvP arena before they could enter (for instance, the Wolves' Den or, hells, even the Colosseum in Ul'dah which is made for duelling, instead of being able to duel anywhere (and thus be harassed by stupid players with chips on their shoulders hassling those who don't like PvP, like me).
Your second idea however isn't really possible based on lore (which also explains the lack of 1x1 duelling) - PvP in FFXIV is entirely focused around the Grand Companies (even Wolves Den is, it's training for the GCs). Restricting PvP to anyone might open up variety, but FFXIV is strongly lore focused and thus gameplay reflects the game's lore, not to mention PvP isn't considered a primary aspect of the game anyway - like the other FF games it is primarly a PvE game, and thus even PvP content will reflect that preference.
