SOrry SE just wants to DRAG out our subscriptions, but how about giving us quality NEW stuff, not recycling the same mobs and gear, just recoloring them, and add some BEEF to the game.
    Welp, you heard it here, from the player themselves. Give him the boot folks. He "DGAF" anyways.

    You got plenty of ways to get XP. Don't choose the worst way, and drag down others in the process. Because now that you've basically declared you're going to settle for less, I'm sure plenty of other players will be glad to make that "less" be 0.

    It wont stop afk'er, since they still get amount of exp doing nothing, better than doing something to them... even bots will keep doing.

    FL with second place gives 418,500 xp at level 60. I can only assume 3rd place xp is beyond awful.

    This makes POTD the best leveling spot for the majority of the player base. This could pretty easily kill pvp queues again. It's a really dumb decision imo.
    Frontline 3rd place XP is still greater than POTD XP post 60.

    It isn't for the most part. Your comment is sneaky at best and a lie at worst. With the 50% buff, potd beats out pvp until 69. That's going to be true for a majority of the playerbase as you only need to get one character leveled to receive the 50% buff post-60 for the rest of your jobs. The msq and duty roulette are going to get at least one of your characters to 70 with very little extra grinding involved.

    This was still a really dumb decision by yoshi and doesn't do anything to keep the afkers and bots out of pvp. There were afkers and bots in pvp for the Garo gear and nothing was done about it. The best thing they could have done was to greatly reduce the cool time on kicks. It wouldn't stop teams of afkers and bots, but this nerf doesn't either.

    Well to be fair he is not Level 70 with a Job so he not gets the Buff currently. In that case actually PVP is better if you have no Job at 70. At leats if you totally ignore all the other parts of the Expansion which get your first Job quite easy to level 70.

    True. If you ignore everything else, then I can see that being true. However, I don't see that often being the case. Also, one good thing to come out of the pvp xp nerf is that dungeon queues seem to be much shorter than they used to be. At the very least, I seem to be getting in between 10 and 20 minutes as dps when it used to be 30-40+. Of course, this may change when schools start up again in the following month or so.

    WRONG. Check your facts before you call me a liar.

    I just ran Frontline as a lvl 69 warrior and received 600K experience points for 3rd place. And I just ran POTD as a lvl 69 warrior and received 388K experience. Why? Because after lvl 60, your XP is capped at 388K experience for POTD. Every POTD I've ran on my warrior after lvl 60 has been 388K experience.

    So GG.

    I'm pretty sure POTD gives more xp with the armoury bonus. Is Warrior your highest level job? If so, that's why.

    And all of this could have been solved by SE making a public statement that they would permanently ban anyone who afk's in pvp and actually follow through with it.
