Thread: What we know about PVP in 6.0:

Updated: 23/10/2021

Here is everything that is known about the new casual PVP mode in Endwalker:

1. The new mode will be Small Scale
2. "it will be much smaller than Frontline, while being at least the same, or slightly larger scale than the Feast"
3. Yoshi-P mentioned Rule changes meaning it will not be the same as current Feast Rules
4. Map Change was also mentioned
5. An element of occupying your opponents base was mentioned as a mechanic
6. They will be moving away from the aspect of just Killing enemies or "Taking down enemies"
7. They said there would be a Rating/Ranking for the new mode however "Those who only want to raise thier PVP rank fight thier way to get rewards, and either side will be able to match up and play" this implies ranked and casual play will be somewhat combined
8. "As for the rewards, the content will offer not only equipment, but also rewards that will entice the players and fulfill their needs"
9. The Reward System will be new with the intention of increasing the number of competitors joining
10. Adjustments will be separate with the small scale PVP content (skill updates etc)
11. Undecided if Feast will remain "the possibility of closing The Feast temporally is high."
12. "Currently healers are in the state where they have the biggest responsibility.." "..So our plan right now is to have all participants have self healing, and battle by utilising the speciality and characteristics of each job."
    
13. " Yoshi-P mentions they are developing it with reference to Apex, Fortnite, and Splatoon"
