Crystalline Conflict 1st impression

[WalkingDragon]

I wonder how many think about the new mode (post your opinion below)

For me:
Positive:
- I love the fast paste of the mode.
- new spells feel good
- quick match
- like the music but that has less to do with the actual pvp

Negative:
- Still don't like the cc in games, even if you can dispell it
- People spamming : "Push the payload", would be better if there was a timer on chat
- allowing people to enter without setting up their pvp bars
Not all people go to the wolf's den and check the PvP profile, can there be a simple
quest where new players learn about the new spells and can place them in thier bars


With all said, I would recommend people to try it out

Apparently the gear is all just reskins of shadowbringers stuff?

Can confirm. All the "Virtu" gear is basically just reskinned level 80 job gear.
Granted, the weapons don't look like reskins from the same sets, but the armour certainly is.

I can definitely agree on the CC. Its pretty frustrating to just get CC'd to death xD


but overall, this is a good mode and I hate PvP in MMOs normally

[Luluna]

Really enjoying it so far even if I am a bit shit haha but still fast paced fun and glad I can now dye my dancer AF dress as did not do it so all good ^^

[Karen_Cerfrumos]

Can't stop playing. I hope for frequent enough balance and map updates (even though I know how unlikely that is with this game).

Pvp without cc would be just be people never dying or kiting for days. CC is fine.

Maybe in 4 more years you will see a new map for this mode if this doesn't die like The Feast in just a month from here.
And with a FOMO based reward structure for me the CC is just as unrewarding (as in i cannot be rewarded) as The Feast.

At least no premades can be made, that should handle the win trading for a while, till people starts just queue as healers and one just throws the match in favor of the other, lmao. Anyway, if you don't live in the proper timezone, participate of the active discords and basically are on your own and have just so much time to play the CC is not for you.

Is a grindy player vs FOMO gamemode. Sad for a game with millions of players to not have a good competitive PvP just because the reward structure is botched and unrewarding. Unless you have endless free time, in that case, you good to go.

The "Series" level grants a Coffer at lvl 25. I think it's something new

Really good EXP rates. Most matchs last 1-5mins.

I must say though. I would like to see some type of penalty protection when a player leaves/disconnects during the match. I lost a Star and our 5th player didn't load in due to a DC at the loading screen. It's not my fault so why is my team being punished for being short 1 player the entire match.
