Your PVP is on life support and given in 10 years it has never had any major appeal, it's probably time to let it go.

Sunken cost fallacy. Fact of the matter is that PVP is a buggy, janky, unpleasant mess AT BEST, and unplayable at worst if your ping is even slightly sub-optimal. Constantly coercing players to play a certain amount of PVP per patch cycle to avoid missing out on FOMO pass rewards is gross and disrespectful of the player's time, something people usually say FFXIV DOESN'T do.

Stop accepting poor design decisions and properly complain about how if PVP can't survive without a heavy handed bribe in the form of the Series Malmstone system, it probably shouldn't survive at all.
I don't know why PvP is the only thing in the is game that people are seemingly okay with FOMO rewards. When even seasonal event rewards at least eventually go to the Cash shop. Even Fan fest items end up there. But PvP? Naw people draw the line with it there.
