Are you enjoying this?

Casual: Super Fun

Polymorph: Giga Cancer
Ranked: Super Cancer
AOE CC: Super Cancer
Silence: Super Cancer
CC Stacking (because each CC of same type is treated different it ends up layering on top, so even if you don't coordinate your stuns together they will stack anyway): Cancer.

If your goal is fun, casual is the way to go for CC. Frontlines has job stacking so that's probably not as fun, but it's still casual and mass pvp.

Are you actually having fun in pvp? If so please explain why you are enjoying it. If you are not enjoying it, please explain why.

1. Mordor. (Murder)

2. I get to kill cute things.

3. I fail at killing those cute things and they kill me instead. (mostly they kill me instead)

4. Our FC mainly PvP's together, because it's better to die spectacularly as a family unit.

5. I love getting killed. (Please come kill me)

I had a blast getting to crystal and didn't meet any obvious cheating
Kind of a shame the game mode wasn't this fun when it had all those really cool mounts. maybe they'll do recolors of them for top 100 in the future or something like wow did

My previous statement was a bit too harsh.
While there has been a bunch of queue syncing and cheaters are coming out of the woodwork as you get closer to crystal over here on Primal, the changes have all been for the better. While I was in the minority that loved the old pvp the changes have gotten tons of new players into pvp and I'm glad they're all having fun.

Aside from minor tweaks to get balance right I just want square to take a far harsher stance on cheating this time around.

[AmpLyra]

Aside from questionable job balance, it's been enjoyable for the most part.

SCH feels simultaneously so good yet so bad because it has zero hard CC and zero peel

People just need to remember that it's just a game and games are made to have fun.
FFXIV ranked system gives rewards and people want those rewards, in the process they list the reward higher then their own enjoyment this is where it goes wrong.

What I did was simple, I played very relaxed if I was in the last rank of a tier didn't care if I lost or won but always tried to analyze what I did wrong every match.
When I got two wins in a row I began to focus and hoped for a strike and keep on winning, if I lost the streak I would play two more rounds and see if I could get another streak.
If I didn't get another streak I would stop playing for a bit, do something else for half an hour or so. Relax drink some coffee listen to some music, all in all keeping it relaxed.

The first few days I did not do this, I kept playing, I kept pushing and got irritated when I lost.
I noticed I wasn't having fun anymore and so I switched up my game.

Keep in mind that having fun is the only reason why we play games.
There is nothing to lose nothing to gain only your own enjoyment.

As a GNB main? No.
Draw and Junction is bad game design. I wish it wasn't, but the devs need to realize it and re-design this ability instead of holding onto sunk cost fallacy.

I like it a lot, best content I've had for years tbh.
I play rank but that's not fun. Rank is never fun in any game
but I like a little competitiveness and I'm apparently a masochist but I think I've had enough lol.

My advice is Play Casuals if you know what's good for you.
Don't stress yourself out in rank it's a fudgin' nightmare.
MM is garbage. You can fight unranks to high Golds which is stupid.
You gotta hope you get a decent team and hope they don't play TDM while enemies run with Crystal.
You get sick of the Meta sweats with the same WHM/WAR/DRG/RDM and more combo's.
You get tired of seeing not progressing and it's frustrating.
At least in Casual's I see damn other tanks, healers and Reaper here and there
and it's way more fun and chill than Polystunpalozza x 1000 WHM with 20 kills

With people talking about hackers in higher tiers, I just don't feel like dealing.
I'm honestly happy at Silver so I think I'ma just stop where I'm at.

But yeah, I'm enjoying it still for now lol.
