Hey guys
I'm french so sorry for my english...
I'm here to ask you and to have your feeling about the new pvp system and his changes !
First, what do you think about the remove of duo queue and LP ? Imo i dislike it... impossible to play with a mate in arena ? wtf !
Second thing, actually only some classes (ninja, blm...) has kept some CC's (and only 3 sec max of control...) but for others like monk or dragoon you just have dmg or def spells but no CC's... How the fuck you want to make a great pvp and try to kill a guy without a chain of CC ? Thats just impossible, i just feel like dueling my mirror and waiting for a crit to win the match... Its impossible to see if someone is better than an other guy.
Except those two points i feel really excited and optimistic for the future. I think they understood what the pvp community was waiting for and they built (still imo) a good base for a nice pvp.
Well just tell me if you're agree with it or not. Give me your opinion !

CC made pvp what it is; before as blm I could aoe sleep for 15sec.. I could aoe bind two ways, slow, heavy. Now blm has 3 sec sleep. That's it. No creativity but just to time a burst solo or w team. I understand the devs wanted simpler pvp w less buttons. The burst buttons are GREAT now. Keep that while retaining several cc buttons and sprint.Quote:

DRK also has their pull, which is essentially a 1s interrupt since the drag animation is so delayed. This means 50% of the time a healer will be CC'd. Throw a BLM in to the mix and it's now 80%. Overall, this is way more CC than we previously had, and even if you grab the 50% DR trait then you are still subject to being cc'd 50%+ of the time.
BLM sleep can also be potent, but it needs to be used at the right times. Also, again, it's every 10 seconds so there are many opportunities that the 3 second sleep is enough to set healer back enough to net a kill or burn more MP in order to recover. With that said, it would be nice if it were OGCD and instant due to the fact that it's such a short duration, but that may push it over the edge a little bit too much.
