If you give people a reason to go, they will go. I guarantee you, if ballista had material rewards, even if they were cosmetic, more people would have stuck around. TONS of people were playing it when it first came out. Then they discovered there was nothing in it for them, so it essentially slowed their PvE progress without any benefits. Almost nobody does anything just "for fun" in an MMO, at least not anymore.
The fun part is beating the enemy.
You don't need anything else.
