Spamming Rival Wings for xp?

[Yuella]

I notice that if both teams don't play defense on Rival Wings, the match can finish in 5 minutes which is great for XP win or lose (especially if you win). Usually it happens when both teams just attack the right side and it's a race to see who can destroy the opponents' core first.

However, if one or both teams play defense and defend that side by killing off the Viking and Magus, the match drags on and can last the whole 20 minutes.

Does your server "cooperate" and strive to finish Rival Wings as soon as possible?

I don't think it's for xp but for the moogle tomes.
Depends on the matches, there's always gonna be the afkers and match throwers, but if they're few enough the team can still play normally. Problem is when most of them are like that.

Oh wait, you mean finishing quickly is better so you can farm? Nope, I'm there to enjoy the pvp and to win, if you want to farm xp that's not what RW is for. And I hate when people only want to be done quickly.

I appreciate the EXP (and that I cna get makrs for just playing) but post like that are the reason why some would rather it not give xp at all and think that only the winners deserved to be rewarded at all.

Plus I'd like to win and get the achievement mounts TYVM.

God I hope not, that's some severe griefing to anyone trying to win. Please report anyone not participating.
Also matches aren't server specific, they're data-centre wide.

We're still trying to win. The idea is both teams attack one side as fast as possible without playing defense

Yeah but that kind of really narrows down the scope of experience, doesn't it?

I can enjoy the occasional base race that will naturally occur when there's a point of no return and running or Returning back won't matter. But I can also enjoy long games, or a back-and-forth, or any number of experiences. Base races without defence is not devoid of PvP, but greatly diminishes the PvP aspect of the experience, leaning too hard on how fast you can destroy structures, mammets, and objectives, and is really dampening the breadth of the experience. Base races should occur organically, and not be something people deliberately vie for or agree on, and the designers would have put in this much other content into Rival Wings if they wanted every game to go like that
