How can SE improve PvP?

[Mature]

So far I think and feel that PvP is lacking big time. I really would like to get involved into the whole idea of PvP with others but somehow it feels dead. I tried Qing for then first time yesterday for a proper match. my Q time was up to 57 mins as a HEALER.never managed to get in son I tried again and same story as a melee dps.....

I really like the gear and weapons that PvP provides and it's the only thing that encourages me to try and play it but Qs are terrible.

My question is , is to scrap all of it and 're do the whole PvP idea into a brand new one or what can be done about it to make it more approachable and accessible for all? Maybe rewards like Materials for new crafting gear? So people grind it a bit more and becames a bit more active maybe?

How can SE improve PvP?

1. Remove GC restriction, make the players act like mercs. This way the queue system can group the players up faster and people from different GC can play toghter. One of the reasons why I can not do PvP with my friends is, because we are different GC. If PvP is to be saved, the restriction has to go!

Turn it into a rhythm game where you have to dodge AoEs to the beat of a randomly selected FFXIV song.

I wish they would remove slaughter and get back 72 man secure. Back when I played a lot of pvp we had 72 man secure all the time (or well, every 2 hours when a game popped) but now we only get 24 man, which sucks because everyone just sits in their base waiting for mid to spawn.

Remove the personal limit break in pvp, it's the worst idea ever and the reason I actually stopped doing pvp at all. So since Slaughter I went from doing 5-8 pvp games a day to never even bothering at all.

Pvp was my favourite thing to do in the game, so I'm really sad that SE had to ruin it for me

Adding an area in open world maps where PVP is allowed. I know a lot of people will cry about this but I'd like to see some sort of open world PVP happen because arena PVP gets pretty stale after a while and the queue times make it even more of a pain to deal with.

Except please don't. Open world PvP is the most annoying thing ever.

There was a thread about this before, someone suggested just putting it on one dedicated PvP server. That would be fine if you really wanted something like this.

Remove the GC-specific crap and you'd instantly make it 10x better. Not being able to play with your friends and hoping that there's enough people in 3 different factions that are simultaneously queuing really screws people over.

As others have said, though I feel it needs to be reiterated due to SE completely ignoring it going forward in 3.0, remove GC restriction. It might not fix all of the problems with PvP but it will immediately alleviate one of the largest problems: the queue times.
