Thread: PVP and patch 2.5

A new PvP instance!!!

new pvp objective? Teleporters, special monsters that grant special bonuses, combo bonuses for consecutive kills? PvP specific limit breaks for every character? *Drools*

Finally some info!

So its 8v8v8 or 24v24v24 3 team Deathmatch?

Did they forget the healers, again ? The killing spree feature is only for DPS, like the new achievements.

Yay, new frontlines! Yay, still sync to 80!

Really. What's the use? We got great PvP gear but we can't seem to use it for proper fights.

Would it be so hard to have a dedicated frontlines instance that require 100+ morale to enter so everyone could fight with decent gear with materias and actually enjoy the hard work they put into getting said gear?

Plus, that would probly be a better experience for those who actually want to PvP because they enjoy it, not to be forced to play with glamours farmers that don't give a sh*t about what they doing as long as they get the gear they want ?

I must say this is greatly disappointing imho.

i110 Morale gear is BiS for everyone unless you have access to i130 gear that doesn't have accuracy on it. Gear doesn't sync down, it just has caps on the secondaries. With high enough raw stats you will have 2 capped secondaries on a piece instead of the usual capped+uncapped.

Morale gear in general is almost always better because 90% of it has no accuracy or parry.

And still, materias have no effects in frontlines. That's pretty sad, whatever BiS reason you can give

This is completely wrong.
The i110 PVP gear does sync like everything else.

BIS for Frontlines = any item over i80 or higher ( or i70 pvp gear) with your 2 favored secondary stats (excluding ACC).

For instance, I am a DRG, i want every piece to be Crit and Det.
If I put on a few pieces of i110 in Frontlines, I lose about 100 Crit and 70 Det, compared to my peices that all have Det and Crit.
thats a huge difference.

So unless your lucky enough to get a Wolves Den match,
most of the gear has no value except looks.
