1v1 PVP

What are your thoughts on 1v1 PVP. It worked in FFXI and other MMO's. Do you think it would work in FFXIV ? Im sure SE could implement different tiers and pvp skills to prevent class unbalances.

What are your thoughts ?

PvP should still be removed all together.

Why even post poison like this?

Even thought PvP apparently sucks, they should at least add dueling. No need for balancing. Just pure pwning your friends haha.

As long as it's done through the DF I don't care. I don't want people spamming me with duel requests every 10 seconds.

lol yea. FFXIV has some ways to go but I think in time it will be more fun. As long as they keep tweaking it to balanced it via PvP skills and make One 1v1 based on gear level, I think it will work. They could also implement a ranking systems to track how good you are and put you up against players at your level.

Yea I dont want that. PVP should be only in the arena. Was annoying in WoW where you were doing a quest and someone just comes and kills you just to be a douche.

Well you didn't have to play on a PvP server if you didn't want to get it in the butt while doing a quest. It was fun during vanilla when a level 60 paladin came at me and my friend and we would stun him and run for our lives (didn't have mounts since we weren't 40) and he would chase us down haha. I hid under a bridge while i watched my friend die. Good old times.

LMAO /10char

It'd require massive changes from the current PVP system which is not that great as it is lol

Most would beg to differ on that bolded part, and for good reasons. Those same reasons would make it work just as well here as it did in FFXI, which is not very good at all.

They would need to completely revamp skill sets, implement cooldowns, and remove GCDs. 1v1s with the current system where your rotation is essentially set in stone on most classes would make for boring fights. Imagine a BLM v BLM matchup.

The only kind of PvP I want is dueling.

I dont care about grinding for rewards, and I don't care about fights with strangers.

I just want to be able to fight my friends for fun.
