    2.35 is supposed to have some adjustments to the PvP gear so that it is more viable in i80 Frontlines.

It doesn't make very much sense and, despite still being relatively recent, the whole PVP rank restriction has become antiquated really freaking fast.

    Does anyone happen to know if glamours override the PVP rank restriction, though? That'd be nice, at the very least. I'd be willing to shell out a few thousand gil for some glamour prisms.
    It does make sense. PvP is all about braging rights. Just earn it

    I'd assume the people saying "No it's fine" have not actually looked at just how much of a grind rank 40 pvp is. It's Ludicrous I tell you, Ludicrous! The grind for the points is enough. You can grind the top tier glamour fodder for like 3 different classes by the time you're actually able to wear it.

    I don't know about you guys, but between hunts, novus and the pvp grind, there really isn't much I can "Please look forward to" that is in the near future. All this stuff is like 2+ months of non-stop boring grinds.

    If you don't like PvP, don't buy PvP gear. There is enough gear ingame that you can get without PvP grind.

    You want pvp gear but don't wanna pvp? So i assume you want it for glamours only then.

    I like the look of that gear, but PvP is boring and takes ages. If only I could get it today with no effort. I know! I'll cry on the OF.

    Your request is wrong on too many levels. God forbid you have to participate in content to see a reward.

    Takes about 250 matches of frontlines if you win all the time, about 300ish if you're in the middle 2nd and third.

    Suck it up. It's better than the 5k you originally needed from wolves den.

    here's the google doc detailing the xp needed for each lvl and how many matches per WD vs FL.

    While I don't really care for the "Suck it up" remark (seriously, is tactfulness dead?), I appreciate the sharing of the google doc, which puts a lot of things in perspective. Thank you!

    They said numerous times that they will change the stats on PvP gear so it's not "subpar" in FL. Might I add that everything with piety, accuracy and parry has the same subpar level as morale on PvP gear? Check your party members, they always have at least a few items with at least one of these stats.

    Im fine with rank resets when people change GC. The latest trend is to bandwagon to the winning GC of a particular data center.

    Another thing important to people who actually do PvP: I don't want newcomers to have access to i100 PvP gear within a week. I'd meet them in Wolves' Den to find out they actually have no clue about their abilities to put up a basic fight. PvE already has this phenomenon going: people in i105 + gear due to hunts who can't beat subpar content.

    This is just another thread that shows people want everything and want it now. God forbid they have to actually do stuff to get it.
