Are you enjoying this?

Yes, I am enjoying the new PvP mode. I re-subscribed precisely to try it out last month. Climbed from unranked to Crystal in 3 days. Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday played the whole day. I played mainly Scholar. I was grinding for Series rewards. Got to level 30 and claimed all of my Trophy Crystals. However, there wasn't anything interesting to buy from the NPC using Trophy Crystals so I used most of them for Wolf Collars, bought some orchestration rolls, a pet I will most likely never use and some other stuff just to spend my Wolf Marks. I have played only two games since I joined Crystal. I stopped playing afterwards as there is no decay system and I do not feel like I want to compete for the top 100 or some higher rank.

I haven't played FFXIV that much outside of PvP, did the alliance raids and Endsinger because these were not out when I unsubbed.

Frontline feels weird. Tried it only once. But the healer changes brought to PvP are definitely an improvement.

I want to enjoy PvP in this game. Explain to me how you are having fun, perhaps we can all try to do what you are doing and you can help others enjoy this system.

What I basically do at the start of most games is -> Sprint - Aldo - Spread - Expedient - Biolysis - Spread - Try to survive, cast broil if possible, look for the perfect opportunity to spread DoT on all five enemies again - Use Aldo on the strongest DPS in team/targeted ally.

It's simple but it's happening in a dynamic environment which requires adjusting and thinking a little bit more than scripted bosses as everything is much more chaotic in PvP. This is what I find fun.

Thing is, I DO enjoy PvP. I actually enjoy CC quite a bit, but FOMO makes me enjoy it less.

If you are talking about the series system, it's just there to give people some sort of reward for playing PvP. Higher ranked players get more exp as well.
