Increase PvP Marks/Exp

[Mardel]

The grind is good the way it is. You learn how to play your class really well with time spent pvp'ing in different situations. An ilvl 70 btw can roll an ilvl 90 geared player, has happened many times. The reason you get face rolled isn't all on the gear, the stat changes are miniscule, the reason for getting face rolled is because usually the ilvl 90 geared player has so much experience and knows how to deal with you while you're hesitating trying to mash buttons hoping to out dps him or her or can't find the healer out of the group etc. If all the players are ilvl 70 on one side and the other side is all ilvl90 then it is very difficult for team a, but not impossible, there are bad rank 30 players out there too.

I do believe the queue's suck as hell though, totally agree with that. Because of this I have all but given up on pvp, tired of waiting for a fight.

'

Not only are they tired of queues the reward of exp/marks you get are piss poor. Other day I did like 52k damage in a fight when the team I was on won. You get nothing special, no bonus or anything. The time it took to win that match for the Exp could have been offset by quickly losing 3 matches. Sure you wouldn't have gained the marks, but what it does it matter? You can't use the marks appropriately until you are the correct rank, and there lies the issue.

Honestly, I feel like the i70 pvp gear is kind of a waste. I wound up buying close to a full set, and I noticed a visible decrease in my performance over my i100 gear. This was spread out over the course of a lot of matches, too, so I feel like it wasn't just a fluke. They really need to encourage people to get the PvP gear. In fact, I feel like it should be outright required. It's pvp, after all.

They ought to just make it where if you're wearing any PvE gear, it gets down-scaled like you were being level-synced. Make it equivalent to un-melded i55 PvP gear. That way if people want to progress and do better in PvP, they have to actually use the gear intended for it. Otherwise I see a bunch of people just skipping the i70 and i90 sets and just wearing their i100/110 PvE gear until they can wear the animal sets.

I've probably put in close to 200 matches since the patch, really going at it, and I'm already just kind of ready to throw in the towel. Maybe that makes me a casual who doesn't deserve any of the gear people are coveting so much, but I feel like it's a major waste of my time compared to what else I could be doing in the game. Isn't really fun, just feels like a really sluggish treadmill towards some neat vanity. Here's hoping frontlines brings in some fun pvp content in 2.3.

^ Ya pretty much I go in as i102 drg and just obliterate people, granted the group has some minor cooperation.

Can't kill all the people if you don't have all the rank skills required to beat higher ranked people :P

In 3 months i90 will be obsolete.

Things I'd like to see;

Current PvP changed to a best of 3 or 5 rounds, with each round rewarding as currently does.
The Challenge Log for PvP to be a completely stand alone thing in the PvP Profile, with lots more objectives such as; Kill an enemies X, Revive a fallen party member, deal X total damage, survived for X minutes, etc. Also have it refresh daily, with EXP and Wolf Marks as rewards.
Provisioning style missions for Wolf Marks, to provide a solid purpose to the i55 gear (trading in for Marks) as well as trading in obsolete gear when you upgrade.

I have to agree increase exp and marks, the long pvp queues make it so hard to make any progress.
