I don't want to discourage any honest hope to see PvP improve, but some thoughts from me are that rewards will not improve the pvp experience, there are new rewards for me to grind for, but i have no intention to pvp to get the rewards, because in my opinion the pvp itself is horrible and I do not enjoy it at all. It is a shallow husk of what it is supposed to be I think. It offers nothing outside of a mount here, or a glam there, maybe orchestrion rolls which to me are the only slightly tempting thing I'll endure it for but I've as of yet to build up the desire to go for that. If something needs rewards to make it something you would play it is a good indication that the content is either extremely poorly designed or just bad, and the proof is that it NEEDS a reward to be engaging for someone to be slightly interested in it.

There are no real rewards I value particularly from doing palace of the dead, I still do that from time to time because to me, it is fun. I have no real benefit to leveling an alt other than just having more inventory space, or checking out another world or seeing the msq again in the context of doing all the running around, but I still do it because I find it an enjoyable experience.

That being said, there is just absolutely nothing appealing to me about current XIV pvp. It's just in utter need of total rework, and all modes are just trash garbage to me.
