    How can PVP be totally fixed?

    I noticed it seems PVP is lackluster to most other then a xp/tomes gimme. I see people just beeline towards opponents without any sort of tactics. If they got rid of tomes and xp would that encourage people to play smarter?

    It sucks that PVP mounts are still tied to achievements for winning which is a rare thing if you get stuck with a team with nobody caring or if anything is PVP just a dumb concept that they put in? I figured they would have PVP zones like other MMO's.

    PvP is already fixed and fun and if you don't have fun with it that is totally alright, you can totally go and play stuff you have fun with. Not everything has to be changed just to cater to your specific taste. If you want something that carries prestige, go work for it. I love the ultimate weapons. But i will never raid Ultimates, it is just not my type of content. But do you see me screaming for SE to put all the old ultimate weapons in the treasure trove? Nope ofc not.

    Fact is PvP is more popular than ever and not a dead gamemode anymore like it was before the changes.

    You can also play in ranked where people actually care about winning. Not that difficult. People who are out for the rewards and casuals will usually play unranked.

    I dont pvp in games that don't allow you to pvp in open world so I personally dont care. I'm a firm believer in 1v1 combat when it comes to pvp, I highly disprove of team pvp So add open world pvp and I will do it. Also the fact pvp is in its own area, q it ruins the entire point of pvp for me its suppose to feel like an actrual combat not a *shrug* just when people are in a zone and expect it kind of kills the enjoyment for me. I much prefer rdm2 where I can just go shoot someone at any time at any second, or diablo 2 engima teleport into a baal run and poison nova the entire group.

    So I'm not saying to do this, but if you wanted to create a scene of people that actually wanted to play competively and win...

    You'd want to remove the daily, remove the experience, remove the rewards in general outside of rewards that require a certain amount of wins. But then you'd probably have such a small group of people bothering, and you'd also end up with lots of win traders.


    You should really just leave pvp alone. It's fun for the majority of the people in-game. This game is incredibly casual about basically everything, which is kind of annoying sometimes but that's how people like it.

    If people beeline to opponents without a strategy then that is called not playing well and being free points for your opponent. There are plenty of strategies in PvP in this game and if you don't have one in mind that isn't the game's fault. Your strategy may taking out a straggler, using your burst then running away, using your mitigation and invulns as a tank to bait the enemy to attack you while everyone else takes them out from a distance, circling around parts of the base where the enemies aren't gathered at to complete objectives, holding a burst or limit break until a certain moment, running out to bait enemies then running behind your team when you get weak, using stuns at the perfect moment to allow someone to be taken out, knocking them away was a common one (did they remove this? not seen it for a long time).

    If you aren't thinking things like this then it's just not the game's fault and I have been just as clueless in other game's pvp. You are either trying or you are not.

    I think being able to play with your friends would make PvP better. Or did they change it and you can finally make a pre-made group?

    Eh not that bad besides that makes the game exciting knowing you can kill or be killed at anytime, they could just create a,few worlds with open PvP for people who enjoy risk

    had they wanted to do it im sure they would have become a WoW clone lol. its what it is whether people like it or not. like this game isn't pvp based at all. the fact it has pvp is a miracle i think. nowhere in trailers or any info really do they make pvp a part of the excitement to sell it. its always been story story story. thats what sells this game. outside of live letters where they tell us adjustments
