Dear Squeenix: Instead of using FOMO to promote PVP...

[Deveryn]

I can overall agree with the idea of the thread creator as unless I am mistaken you can no longer get the Archfiend set/Adventure plate frames from series 1 (unless you earned them and never claimed them) and this series rewards also have an unclear return date. I admit I did grind casual CC as I really wanted the mount but man do I never want to do that again, I will do my daily frontline matches from here on in as at least it is a huge chunk of exp per day for a job and it is a lot less stressful causal CC matches of "And we lost because my team forgot the crystal was an objective and just refused to run past the melee bullying at base."

Those rewards are available for 4 months and one doesn't have to win every match to get them. If these items matter to anyone, it's worth doing more than the bare minimum to get the right amount of xp. Find a pvp discord to join up with some people for pre-made groups and you might start having more fun with it. Don't forget Rival Wings is an option and the are regular queue events for each DC.

And you are allowed to take breaks are you not, that is a whole selling point of the game isn't it? I took an extended break forgetting about the pvp series rewards until my return. Also I wish Rival Wings wasn't an over 30 min wait time when I am online as I vastly prefer it over all other pvp options.

Like I said, there's a discord option for Rival Wings. Almost every evening on Revival, there's an event lasting a few hours for people to queue on a specific data center.

As for missing out on stuff due to breaks: The schedule is generally very consistent and easy to follow. Every 4 months, we're getting updates and things like pvp series change over to new rewards. Next year, the updates are in January and (most likely) May and September. Live Letters serve as a warning that an update is approaching, with the second being a 2 week notice.
