Duels

[Giit]

This coming from the guy who's been trying to start fights this entire thread...

A-fights are fun, pretty sure everything about this game involves fighting.

B-your comment makes so sense, and I really tried to see the correlation between your assumption of me being a "forum bully" and my post.

C-prove where I'm starting a fight. this is a discussion, in a moderated thread, and obviously an interesting one.

/duel /duel /duel /duel /duel WTF WHY DONT YOU DEUL???????????????? /duel duel /duel /duel OMG ARE YOU AFRAID?? /duel /duel /duel /duel

Thats why... Auto refuse doesn't fix the issue of these types of people. I'm not sure if you know this or not but blacklist only has a limit of 200 people and I don't want to blist someone every day.

I think you're over exaggerating. You can either refuse the challenge like normal, or check the pvp off button so you wont be eligible to receive challenges. It wont hurt you or anyone if you do that and they'll forget about you and move on.

I don't feel like going back and pointing out all the posts you've tried starting fights in. I think I'll call this thread done. Pounding my head against a brick wall does nothing but give me a headache.

there's nothing wrong with furiously defending your position, but accusations should be backed up, or avoided, and not just fired off in place of actual material to further ones agenda. when you got nothing...you got nothing don't take it out on me.

nice to meet you. /hugs it out

I used to play WoW and all i can really tell you about duels is someone challenges you to a duel you can either accept or decline, you cant be forced to accept it. It is entirely optional and as some pointed out its an interesting way to pass time for some. From what I have gathered it seems that pvp for 2.0 is going to be instanced and/or zone regulated too so there's really no reason for "pvp grief" to ever become an issue.

i Ok with arena -3-"
someone wanna fight someone i don't mind if he can't PK me outside. but if u really want pvp so much it should be 4 vs 4 or 5 vs 5 in extra map and have some rule or goal like destroy enemy crystal and have some liitle soldier for your minion that will stronger and stronger by time and possible to upgrade from point after kill don't forget give for upgrade solider and make some barrage in way to crystal (crystal defend + *ota concept lol) oh.. don't forget make it 3 way to crystal and cross by river lol
so my friend still in game when we call him to event... i boring hear "hay i still in *ota we near end wait for xxx min..."

The addition of PvP is one thing that will expand FFXIV's subscriber base beyond the infinitesimal crowd of supporters we have now and ultimately restore FFXIV's tarnished reputation. Especially with the PS3 release, PvP will attract a whole new demographic to FFXIV which greatly increases the chances that its "rebirth" will be a success. That means more revenue for SE which equals more resources at their disposal to make this game better in the years to come. You can definitely add me to the pro list.

I really don't mind Duels. I think their fine in the Arena myself and would likely prefer it that way.

/duel with a cooldown is a must to me, and should be plenty long. If your gonna duel people who actually want to, theres no need for it to be spammable. But on top of this i would request a MUCH bigger blacklist, because if i start getting pestered because i declined i want plenty of room to ingore as many people as i want. No need for one in an arena.

If you want to kill time on a Dungeon cooldown, i'd much rather have Triple Triad Travel version. But if thats what you want, have at it.

There are some issues with 1v1 pvp that always arise however, and for everyone who is "pro" i do hope your prepared for:

Why can't my X beat Y?
X is overpowered, needs nerf!
Skill Y doesn't do enough damage 1v1
Nerf Stuns on X, they are OP in 1v1
X shouldn't get Heavydebuff skills, they are ranged!
Tanks are too hard to kill!

Need i go on. Duel as much as you want. But if your unwilling to back SE when they say Tough Nuts to complaints like this, and your favorite class isn't top dog, then i'd rather flush the whole thing down the drain.

Balancing for 1v1 PVP has ruined more classes and games then i care to remember, even when pvp and pve skills are seperate, because once you get into 10 v 10 or more battles alot of skills feels useless, because of 1v1 crying.

Thats my OPINION on the matter. I don't begrudge anyone their fun duels, but keep the "Balancing" of PVP skills out of it, save that for the group vs group fights and let your duels be for the fun you claim its for ^^

believe it or not, I understand what your'e saying 100%

I have confidence that no part of the game will be balanced around dueling. that's never made sense, and I think that most MMO devs have learned a lesson from past games regarding this. I think it's fine for some adjustments and balancing when it comes to overall pvp, as long it's effect on PVE isn't noticeable at all, but as far as dueling goes, it should be a "deal with what you've got" type thing.

Dont tell me to consider some other game, just because you are dead set on ruining this one.

If they ruin it, they ruin it. I wont be surprised. Ill leave then. Ill speak my mind up until that point.

So by them making it 100% better than current version (fact) they are ruining the game? Flimsy logic. Oh and you are crying over swim suits still?
