Yeah wish more ppl would show interest, this is definitely a more ideal way to test abilities cd's and strats with alot less hassle.

Like in Blade and Soul. Perfect PVPDUEL

Ho there! Enter the Wolves' Den! The PvP in ARR is amazing, both Frontline and Den! In matches, you will battle 1 on 1! In the Den, there will be a great feeling of pressure, knowing the fate of the battle stands with you, but if you prevail, you will have a great feeling! Do not be discouraged or disappointed, you will have victory!

What I think FFXIV PvP needs:

1v1 Duels.
Tournaments and Leaderboards, in Wolves' Den.
Open World conquest style PvP, regularly scheduled GCvGC content (Adders attacks Maelstrom zone, Maelstrom attacks Flames zone, Flames attacks Adders zone, for example).

What we're getting:

New Frontlines modes...

Yeah I second this. Its rumored that the Manderville Gold Saucer in patch 2.51 may have coliseum battles. The expansion will have even more additions to pvp.

Dueling would be fun but it would require even more severe balance than what we have now.

Healers, especially SCH would be pretty much invincible and just whittle you with DoTs.

If Healers were somehow banned, WARs would dominate.

Doesn't really work in this game.

Well its more or less for people to have 1 on 1 just to test how good they will far against other jobs. It in no way needs to be balanced for 1v1s. In other mmos i pvp 1v1s all the time and was the best at the class i was and some classes just played better then what i was and there was no way to win a match but it was still fun to try. All they need in this game for 1v1 is make it so the match ends when your hp hits 1 and thats it. i know i have soloed some healers that are not yet pro level and giving them the 1v1 option to fight good dps will help them to improve there skills. I've faced off with really pro healers and i could not kill them solo (yet) also im a drg btw.

Duels usually aren't meant to be balanced as there will always be counter-classes and such. Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, paper beats rock.

Its a duel, you do with friends to kill time.
stop trying to put so much regulation in the game.

Some of the best times in WoW where coming up to random outposts and finding groups dueling.
It made the world feel really alive.
FFXIV could use some alive.
