    Duels shouldn't be added because this game needs to be a special snowflake and not take good things from other games and if I disagree I should go play some other MMO
    1v1 Duels simply are not needed in XIV. That is my point.

    You are 100% right.

    They are NOT needed.
    But they would be a GREAT addition to the game, and add a lot to the PvP side of the game, which, believe or not, is a thing.

    I never sad that PVP isn't needed. Group PVP is fine and is locked to one area only which is great. 1v1 Duels everywhere else except sanctuaries... THAT I don't want. How would they be a great addition? To cite the two games I used before as examples (DCUO and SWTOR), people were getting challenged to duels EVERYWHERE... It was not fun, to be in the middle of a fight with trash mobs, then have my character pause as a pop up appears, challenging me to a duel... and by the time you decline it, your dead... and the idiot who challenged you is there laughing.

    That's seriously your complaint?

    Here's a fix.

    When someone issues you a duel no matter wait, it only appears as the small minimized confirmation window. Like the little box that appears when you hit wait for the duty finder.

    You just assume that if someone issues you a duel you're going to be unable to take any actions until hitting accept or decline? That's kind of silly don't you think. That's not how it would be and you know it.

    That's only ONE example. I could go into more detail, but honestly I can't be bothered. You haven't played DCUO have you? When I used to play it on PS3, I had a window appear right in the middle of the screen saying "Such and such wishes to challenge you to a duel. Do you accept? Yes / No". Same with SWTOR. I'm not saying that IF SE did decide to include 1v1 duels that they'd use a similar pop up like the other two games have, but it would still be a nuisance. Even when you go into DF, you still get that big window in the screen, until you hit Wait or close it, THEN the smaller one pops up on the side of the screen out of the way.

    Look assume all you want. If SE brings it in, I hope they also make it fair to those who do NOT want to 1v1 with random idiots. Like Enkidoh said, have the duels in one specific area and NOT in the field.

    I think this game do really not need many things like personal housing or marriage system etc but I have nothing against it. Let players have fun in this game in their own way. Nobody force you do the duels. You can keep doing pve as much you want. If some players want duel somewhere that should not hurt you at all.

    Edit:Who said dueling is supposed 2 happen everywhere? You can que for it from duty finder(like wolves den) or make special area for dueling.
