PVP Levelling? Not even a chance. SE you need to up the Exp

[Blitzen-Twiceborn]

Level increase to rank 50, but NO experience increase? The queues for new Frontlines are still absolute garbage and to wait 30-40 mins (First day?!?? Should be on fire) to get 200 exp on a loss? It'll take a year of 9-5 daily pop to get high enough for new gear.

They need to up the exp heavily, make queues faster (eliminate GC component) or give more weekly bonuses, challenges.

It's almost as though they are encouraging people to win trade in Wolves Den to level because most players, even hardcore will not spend the time waiting for an hour queue to get fraction of the exp you'd get in 5 mins of swaps.

I'd wager it'd be faster to get all jobs to 60 from 50 than to rank from 45-50

Eliminating the rank for the earlier gear? Thanks SE, why did I level? How about making the new gear 34-38 rank then because at this rate, maybe one person per server will have new gear in a few months of daily grind.

Why do you want pvp gear if new frontline is gear synced to ilevel 150, and there is no other pvp activities without it. I think it's only usefull for glamour.

[Blitzen-Twiceborn]

Ahhh because they made the coolest looking gear almost unattainable, but not from lack of trying. That they won't LET you get in to get the garbage exp to get it

[Chiho]

You just want the highest pvp gear with little to no work. Suck it up and pvp more if you want the i150 stuff

[Blitzen-Twiceborn]

Not at all. I had to do the grind like the rest of you to get to high rank, which is now removed so anyone can have the PVP gear we saved up and did the grind for.

Not about sucking it up, but if you're not improving queues or exp gained, i'll take twice if not three times as long to get from 45-46 than it did to get from 40-45.

I like putting in time for PVP, but if people can devote as much time to it as a full time job 9-5 Monday to Friday and not be able to level a rank for a week or more... That doesn't make sense. most people don't have that much time and when they get home now they want to progress Alexander now (great idea releasing both at the same time)

It's not about sucking it up.... It's about stupid decisions and not caring about improving ANYTHING asked for.

200-300 exp an hour? Stupid.

EDIT - When the new 50+ fates didn't give relative experience to the grind necessary, they changed it. Why not do the same when the same gap exists in PVP since it's harder to get queues already?

You're in the Immortal Flames. If you want faster queues, switch to Maelstrom. You'll literally never win, of course, but you'll get to play faster.

Guy in Reddit just did the math. For 40-50 with one bonus exp DR per day it would take 190 days.

Nope

Using C'eves fantastic pvp rank spreadsheet that was recently updated here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...HhqTjdmNFNDZ2c

It's exactly 49,800 EXP to go from 40-45 and 62,700 EXP to go from 45-50.

That's a 25.90% increase for those 5 levels, which isn't bad at all. Combine that with the challenge log which is a set %, and the fact that DR roulette now gives a guaranteed 400 exp every time, and if you're planning on doing a fair amount of PvPing anyway it's really not bad.

Half of the year is enough consider they wont release any more pvp content for year or so.

[Blitzen-Twiceborn]

With the same exp gained per fight as 0-40, correct? Do any of the dungeons, fates or levels offer the same regular exp from job levels 0-50? No they increase.

I agree the challenges help on weekly, but you have to find some swaps for WD because the queue for that is silly compared to FL.

As the poster above me noted, I should switch to Mael to get faster queues... But I'd begin at 0 again and just.... ugh. Maybe the GC component is the real problem because I am 17 mins now. Last 2 queues were over 45 mins...
