(PVP) Please add dueling in the open world!

[Silvanoshi]

Would the general playerbase like to see 1 v 1 dueling in the open world via a /duel command? Great practice for Wolf's Den (even though abilities are different)... and it does have some roleplay value.

Going beyond dueling, would folks like to see arena type battle area's that utilized a mix of NPC/PC's battling? This could use the current duty finder system and pull players from the same data center, but have half of the servers be matched together while the other half could be the opponents.

Thoughts, suggestions?

There was supposed to be some form of dueling in housing instance but I don't know if Yoshi is going through with it. It would be nice if a community rep can confirm or deny.

As neat as it would be, the jobs/classes are NOT at all balanced for this type of encounter. A CNJ/WHM for instance wouldn't survive at all against any of the actual DPS classes. Just watch what happens in Wolves' Den if a WHM gets singled out by a DRG. One Spineshatter Dive and the WHM is as good as defeated.

Oh as an FYI, your second item is sort of what the Forefront PvP system is going to be. Large Scale PvP with NPCs and the like.

i say no because getting spammed /duel request and called a nab because i won't fight you is annoying definitly if its a lvl 50 trying to beat up a lvl 10 in central thanalan.

[HeroSamson]

I think they should in the future but not right now, maybe when they have a full scale war expansion or something.

[Linadae]

I would be fine with this provided I have an option to auto-decline all duel requests.

[YeaniNah]

i hated game with /duel command with "accept/deny... If you werent interrest in doing duel, people was spamming it just to piss you off until you leave the game or accept... Unless SE put an option to Auto deny request ..im against it

I know. I had enough of that garbage on WoW... on PvE servers. (PvP servers I can understand and let slide... to an extent.)

"You've been challenged to a duel. Accept/Decline?" Rinse and repeat to ad nauseum because the person issuing the the challenge refuses to get the hint that I am NOT interested in dueling.

After a certain point it becomes a form of harassment.

[rockso]

my vote for no.

Reasons same as Musashidon and Noshpan. Its annoying and inb4 but people wont do that! have you met the people that play this game?
