PvP Needs Full Rework

[Nav_Fae]

I feel the need to remind everyone that this "fun" and "popularity" happens every single time a new PvP mode comes out. It happened with Feast, it happened with Rival Wings, it happened with Shatter. It's new content. Just because something is new doesn't make it popular. Give it time. It'll die like everything else has when the spark wears off. The difference right now is that FFXIV had a huge influx of players last year, so more people playing the game than ever before. More content creators streaming and pushing the game than ever before. And most importantly, there is the battle pass and Makai events rolling out at the same time inspiring motivation for new glamour farms. There is a lot of incentive to play PvP atm therefore making it appear more popular with artificial reasons to play. Just because something is active doesn't mean it's fun or balanced.

Thank you for saying this. I feel most of the people that defend CC are those who never played PVP from the beginning. We were there when The Fold is active, when Feast was good (more skills to play around) and when Frontlines & Rival wings still has "strategies" and not just YOLO games. The current CC is unbalanced and most of the problems that Feast had is still there (trading, cheats etc.). We only wish for PVP to thrive and hopefully they fix this problems soon.
