The PvP Is AMAZING. Square Enix has delivered.

Good thing this is a PvE game first and foremost anyway - Everyone playing prior to 2.1 should have realized that.

You can't say PvP isn't part of the game when it is a highlight of a major patch. A game with no concern on PvP would be Everquest 1 where all kinds of craziness happen, and nobody on the devs even cared about PvP let alone advertise about it, so you know what you were getting into when you PvP. I understand PvP might not be a major concern, but most other game's PvP at least appeared to work. Here we just skip straight to broken.

PvP is now a part of FFXIV. And to be honest I can see it work pretty well (After they fixed some skills) And from my information they have coded so PvP and PvE skills does not crash with each other? I am unsure of this thou so don't quote me on this.

If that is the case then balance in PvP will be easier since PvP and PvE wont conflict with each other at all

Statement: This one has not been as Enraptured in PvP since DAoC. It cannot wait for the Frontlines large scale PvP.

I have never been so happy to get royally rekt by a well prepared team before.
Was getting a lot of premades from Leviathan that were actually really good players.

The strategies seem to be tight and I like that the music is different if you go premade instead of PUG. I know this single stage will get boring after a while, but for now it's great, and if we get some new pvp content in 2.2 this is perfectly good for the next few months.

It's only going to get better as we get pvp gear, pvp skills, and pvp traits. Thank you square enix this is a -very- good addition to the game.

And most importantly: Having fun in the wolves den?

ahhhhhhh hahahahahahaha, oh wait you're serious? AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

But really... enough teasing, it's definitely just basic pvp and there's nothing here to be praised other than that it doesn't crash the servers.

Having PvP problems? I feel bad for you son.

I got 99 problems but sleep ain't one.

If you're having a bad time in the den, try getting good.

Ahh People on higher horse.

Now I understand people think highly on themselves. But if you step back in a few weeks you will notice a pattern of issues that might come up. Are you then going to say the same thing? When a majority of a community and data shows that some skills might be to powerful (Observe Data is more important then opinons here) will you then tell Square Enix to "try getting good"?

[Nanaya]

I'd be lying if I said I did not balk at the idea of a 30 second Sleep. Even using food for +5 Sleep Res, and Sleep Ward Potions for another 15, still is double digit duration if you get hit while you're roleplaying a NASCAR doing the Indy 500 on healer.

The diminishing returns seem rather too forgiving, also. On a few occasions I would expend my Purify, only to receive another whopper of a Sleep about 15 seconds later. It's not always possible to keep tabs on the locations of everyone with the camera in that area, especially when you're leading a parade of angry mouthbreathers in circles, because if that's not the hypest way to play PvP, I don't know what is. I must humbly request Yoshida just replaces the current BGM with Yakety Sax if you queue up as healer.

Anyway, you don't get 30 second Stuns, or 30 second Miasma's, I don't quite comprehend the reasoning behind 30 second Sleep. It's not like it's the only CC BLM has, Lethargy is a ghetto Miasma, but still quite effective.

get some pvp gear before you even try to complain...

Such a dumb argument. PvP should be balanced no matter how many hours the player has spent playing. Players shouldn't have to slog through hours of cheesy, broken mechanics to get the gear to defend against cheesy, broken mechanics. We should start with defenses against cc. Victory to whoever plays the most I guess, reward the no skill/no lifer. No thanks.

Seems like you're enjoying yourself

I could never enjoy PvP even when it was good.

I only hope PvE stuff aren't getting more nerfs thanks to PvP, though. Playing as Summoner without Thunder is really boring...

[Arcturius]

The pvp is amazing and I am totally rocking it. Only thing that bothers me is responsiveness and the positioning update. When garuda pushes people they teleport on my screen so i have to spin around to see where they went. Also when following people while trying to melee is pretty bad. Abilities start to go off then realize they are not in range. But other than that kind of stuff I really like it.
