    New PvP Dueling Venues

    Every so often I bring up this topic and this is no different from before.

    But I would really like new pvp areas to duel in besides other than the Wolves den.

    Especially now with Arcadion it is so much fun to duel in Black Cats arena with the music playing. Or any of them for that matter.

    I figure we may never get any PvP zones but PvP instances of differing locales be interesting.

    If you and a friend could at least queue up for a one-on-one.

    Or even a full party of eight that functions like a tournament bracket is pretty nifty.

    I understand one match ups are sometimes imbalanced but I still think it be fun.

    Especially if you could easily just queue up for it with your friends and pick different locales from all over the world as an instanced stage for you to fight in. Just place a few barriers for the line of sight.

    I think it would be really neat.

    Sounds like a lot of fun, but I don't have a lot of hope that the devs will do anything beyond adding more Crystaline Conflict arenas and letting every other aspect of PvP stagnate. Frontlines has had a map closed/"under construction" for how long now? And I've been playing for a few years and the first Rival Wings map is still closed and waiting for a rework.

    It's a shame because I actually do enjoy PvP in this game, but CBU3 seems to treat it like a total afterthought.

    Now I really want an Arcadion themed CC map. That would be epic.

    I like this idea but let us initiate duels in hubs as well.

    They can burn that map in a fire. It was horrendous and very long.

    I think another zone like the Wolves Den would further split the PvP playerbase but I hadn't considered the thought of an Arcadion themed PvP instance which is honestly a pretty cool idea. I doubt we'll see a map with that theme. I vaguely recall something about getting a new Frontline map but that could've been a dream. As far as I know we're not getting anything, after all Borderland Ruins is still "under renovation". I still would like to see a Black Shroud map though.

    At the end of the day anything would be better than Shatter.

    At least let housing have duel rings as a thing we can place. That'd be cool.
    (Though tbh dueling in PvP is incredibly boring because of how long a fight lasts.)

    Oh I agree, I hated that map too and don't miss it one bit. But it's so awkward to have a closed map sitting there gathering dust for all to see. They need to either fix/rework it or just remove it entirely and replace it with a brand new Frontlines map.
