pvp an epic failure

sleep whole team...win. exp and marks come stupidly slow. ppl die in under 5 secs without the gear it will take forever to farm...

Thanks for this well thought out analysis of the deeper structures of PVP 1 hour after it has been released. I applaud your use of footnotes and statistics.

Buy smelling salts from the auction house to wake up teammates, get PvP Gear that reduces sleep to a fraction of what it was, get the PvP Skill "Purify" that wakes you up when you're asleep.

Of course level 1 pvp is going to be pretty bad. You need to unlock the skills to start going places. PvP is going to be all about preparation. Sorry you got sleeped though, better luck next time!

A lot of people are complaining about sleep it seems. I understand they implemented sleep-reducing materia and skills to help...but 30 secs as a starting point for regular PVP sleep is a bit ridiculous. Even 10 seconds would have been powerful enough.

Crafters can make starter PvP gear (stuff with morale on it). I'm sure we're gouging the hell out of on the MB, but it's there. Not to say that makes any PvP problems magically okay. I haven't tried yet.

I ran in completely unprepared and won my first match (albeit the other team was probably unprepared as well!). But yeah you need to prepare for it. You're gonna get slept, blinded, binded etc so you have to start building up and getting better gear to withstand it :P It's not gonna be handed to you on a silver plate...

I stand by my original statement. Matches against prep teams have been healer ( or sometimes the whole team) getting slept and someone getting chain pull stunned or whatever from full hp to dead inside of 10 secs. I guess I need to lvl a blm to have a chance. I was hoping going in to this, they might have balanced the cc durations a little, but not to be. Maybe in a month or two when they release a balance patch for pvp.

side note: it threatens to kick you if you are dead too long in the arena ( not taking actions or moving) . Something that needs to be corrected for long drawn out matches where ppl die.

yay cant wait for SE to nerf sleep in PVE in the name of balance!

So i heard down the grapevine that poison potions are a thing...
