Ideas: PVP Rewards

[Kassiekane]

Part of being skilled at pvp is knowing what gear to use and what gear to avoid. A player taking advantage of the right stats in a PvP environment is using skill to gain the edge.

Disagreed. It takes 10 seconds or less to google what the best PvP gear is for your class, thanks to ambitious theorycrafters.

Also disagreed. Go ahead and google it. First results you get for Dragoon is actually about the best Dragoon rotation (which is what theorycrafting is more commonly used for) or PvE gear sets. There's barely anything about gear... most likely because we don't have the variety to properly create useful sets.

Don't get me wrong, you're not far from the mark. Figuring out which gear is BiS for your job is not difficult by any stretch of the imagination, but that doesn't disprove anything that I said. In fact, one of the reasons that the BiS is so easy to figure out is because there is a lack of gear available, and the gear that is available is made even more limited because of restrictions on Morale Bonuses. It also doesn't change that fact that most BiS loadouts for PvP are theoretically a mix of PvP and PvE gear (this would be the case if Morale bonuses were allowed). Dedicated PvP players would be interested in taking the extra step to figuring out what works best. Casual players often just go with whatever they have, and might not even know there's a difference.

It also doesn't change the fact that item lvl 210 gear is an easily obtained by anyone and everyone who can buy Eso gear and upgrade it using Void Ark spoils... yet people complain about morale bonuses that only a small fraction of the PvP community could even take advantage of and really wouldn't change anything, because it would be competing with an item level that is now replacing the standard for PvE.

I'll just crapshoot a couple of ideas here:

- PvP themed house furniture (I'd like an allagan tomelith in my FC's front yard);
- Tradable minions (for selling on the MB);
- Emotes (example: /huzzah with a GC flag in your hand);
- Chances to receive crafting and melding items other upon leaving a match after it's over;
- Gil rewards depending on which place your GC ranked during a match;
- Being able to buy Clan mark logs or similar items through Wolf Marks
- Mounts of course! I wish they'd add a variation of the following:
