    The difference is already there with rank 50 PvP gear being significantly stronger than normal gear due to morale + stat increase.

    This is a double edged sword and motivates some players (like me) to achieve the rank to acquire those items and dedicate time to it.

    The main issue is time and even if I have time, the queues won't allow the games to be made at certain hours.

    Once you hit the max rank & acquire the items you want, what is there left? Same could be said for many things in the game but most areas at least have a variability with less constraint on reliance of 7-71 players.

    Morale only works in Wolves' Den, no?

    It also discourages newer players from joining in. I do PVP casually at best, but knowing people could no-life grind out a flat numerical advantage like that would probably stop me from queueing up for it entirely. I've got better things I could do with my time. It's not even a very good source of Eso now with the queues and I'm just not interested in being even easier kill fodder for veterans. I queue up for entertainment and to work slowly toward the achievements when I'm bored or when my friends aren't on.

    Its the simple fact that people don't like the current pvp system (or pvp in general) and awarding them something pvp related for doing it will not attract them.

    You want people to start doing pvp you need to give them something they like such as minions or glamours or something.

    That said i wouldn't say no to more pvp statistics in your pvp profile such as kills, revives, captures etc.
