An idea to get more people to pvp

[Guesswhat]

PvP cant merely be a grind to get something; it would eventually die completely. I bet there are numerous people who stops PvP once they have grinded all the mounts/achievements/gear/etc they want. Then again, pretty much all content in this game revolves around grinding to keep it alive.

Sigh, I wish more people would simply play just to play.

Whatever rewards they're gonna give from pvp in the future, I'll never ever gonna touch pvp.

Personally I think PVP needs to have it's own design team of people who specialize and focus on the PVP aspect of the game instead of the PVE aspect. This team would obviously be overseen by Yoshi-P for stuff like lore and etc. Then have PVP get it's own patch rotation, maybe once every 3-5 months we get new PVP additions and addons(weapons, minions, mounts, game modes) like they do in PVE. This team of people would then be able to more directly cater to player wants and fine tune it so it's more fun. I feel like the current design team is doing what they can but they get torn between the two and with more players obviously wanting more PVE content that's where they focus their attention. And hell, maybe if they're feeling really cheeky they could throw in some PVP quests to detail how the battle is going over time. Just my two cents.
Also, there needs to be a Slaughter mode where your GC doesn't matter and you can queue with whoever, but that's just my own personal opinion.

PVP is the only content (besides house decorating) that I find compelling enough to do with no rewards. I hit 50 ages and I'm constantly struggling to find new things to spend my capped Wolf Marks on, but I still want to PVP ever day. I can't though, because as nice as it would be if more people PVP'd just to PVP, it's not going to happen. SE needs to add more reasons for the average player to PVP or it's going stay dead.

We've said it over and over, but just in case this is the thread is the one that the devs happen to pay attention to: Wolf Marks should get you some or all of the following: Mounts, Titles, Minions, Furnishings. What about crafting items? Give people another way to farm things they can get elsewhere.

People just need to accept at some point that the overwhelming majority of FF players are not interested in PvP and would probably rather quit the game than do PvP for things that are required for PvE (like the suggested skills).
I'm torn - I don't really like PvP, but I like the gear, so I try to do it at least from time to time, but it's really hard because queue times are between 30 min and 6 hours, depending on the time of day.
So I'd like it if more people signed up for PvP, but I totally understand them when they say that they don't want PvP to become required to do well in PvE.
