Changes I'd like to see reverted, made etc

[Ryios]

-Get rid of Tier IV materia rewards, add plat piece (10k gil) and il 50 gear instead
-Get rid of mega potion rewards from quests (same rep as above)
-Give everyone a base PVP set like af 1 for PVP

-Either lower cooldown on provoke for Garuda EM, or reduce rate at which stacks of "the low" go out by 10 seconds per stack.

-Please, for the love of god, make all lockouts loot lockouts, and do it based on the class the gear is for.

e.g. 1 Caster Dps Ring (smn/blm), 1 dps gear for (mnk/drg), 1 tank gear etc so we can rerun BCB and CT and gear out ults.

CT is awesome, but it's utter garbage because everyone is going to mad rush it monday, then not touch it for the rest of the week. Same thing happens in BCB.

I'd like to run BCB outside of my static on an alt, it would be a nice change to raiding with the same 7 people for 3 months while not breaking my commitment to run with them.

PVP needs a full overhaul, we need free entry level sets & skills that are pvp only and cant use pve skills.

[BlackPriest]

Lol free lvl 50 gear? Seriously? Think that through much?

[Ryans]

Giving out platinum pieces would have put gil into the economy instead of taking it out (people buy materia and break meld taking the materia out and the percentage of the market price). If that's what they wanted they would have done it.

They already do give out pvp gear. You can craft a whole set of lvl 55 gear for under 30k on a legacy server.

I'm men about most of your post OP but the provoke part is silly. The spiny plume doesn't need provoked so often that you need it twice for one plume.

It's bugged or something, two of the 10 times I've attempted it (the 2 best attempts too) the spiney plume put 2 stacks on me and the MT had to provoke it, and it put 2 stacks on him instantly and I couldn't provoke it back.

Provoke is useless in PVP anyway, don't see how a 30 second cooldown would break anything.

Materia rewards are fine. They're making the market bogged down now, but they are ONE TIME quests. The market will bounce back. The smart ones will invest while you can get them for 5-10k.

Eventually supply will meet demand again. Most of the blue iv materia prices already rebounded on Gilgamesh.

No, the rewards are fine, the price will stabalize since its a one time reward.
-No, I use the potions, so its a nice convenience, take the gil if you dont want the potions
-There already is a basic set of pvp gear avialable, it's called ilvl55 gear its crafted and its really cheap (especially considering its not convertible and thus there won't be a constant demand)

There is a lot of content tuned with the current provoke cool-down, turn 2 being the most obvious. Lowering the provoke cool-down would trivalize turn 2 allowing tank swaps at 1-2 stacks or make removing rot a viable option for even under geared groups.

Considering everyone is wussing out and abusing the rage strat that doesn't really matter anymore.
