    The way it is now is that if you're in Gold tier, the lowest you can go is Gold 3 and you can't de-rank into silver if you lose 20 times etc. Once you reach the next tier, that's where you stay.

    I think ultimately de-ranking will bring a hell of a lot of toxicity into Crystaline Conflict and will just push people to Casual. PvPers get pretty upset when they lose rank / status.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    So nothing is being done to address the problems on the low end of the ranks. I'm not surprised in the least.

    Way too little, way too late. Screw CC.

    It's going to be a mess.
    I'll just do CC to get the Series rewards and then don't bother again.

    Why bother with CC? Just do frontline. I mean you're not gonna win in either case.

    Hey, come on now. Individual effort is a lot more important in CC and the matches are much faster.

    As someone who doesn't partake in pvp, I would have thought if you are gonna add demotion you would want to add in ranking decay along with it to encourage the people that achieve the higher rankings to continue playing instead of encouraging people to get to their higher ranking and just stop pvping.

    SE be like season 1 was too successful, we must make less people play cc so we can reintroduce meaningful top 100 rewards.

    Rank demotions should start from gold and onwards, Nothing more painful than going from silver to gold, getting trapped by hardstuck players and being demoted over and over again.

    Or atleast let us queue with friends for NON-Ranked PVP. Then i will never touch ranked again.

    What even is this post? The people that never played ranked Feast and had the chance are ultimately to blame for not getting a ranked Feast reward.
