    I don't know. I think you are ignoring the "enjoy yourself" part of the equation. Continually rerunning PotD is like soul death. I'm not much for PvP but I'm pretty sure if I was going to run anything over and over I'd choose relatively ok xp (with a chance at better xp) than the cancer that is repeated PotD runs.

    This, I'd much rather enjoy the randomness of PVP over the tedium of PoTD. The latter might be more efficient but in the long run I honestly get more exp per day from PVP than I do from PoTD, and this is due to it being so boring I can't handle more than three runs at a time. PVP I can run until my fingers bleed without a care.

    I honestly did not find pvp all that fun. Spending most of my time dead or unable to engage because of the disparity between melee and ranged. Initially it was fun, but that quickly wore off.

    Then there was the fact that at worst, before the xp change, I would have to run pvp 4 times for every potd run and at best 2 times for every potd run. The main reason why I ran it was because it was something different.

    But the xp change quickly made pvp even more of soul crushing grind of frustration then potd was. Removing it as an option to consider at least for me.
