  1. Thank God for the solution, but it's one of those things were I wonder why was this a problem in the first place. It's like some heavy japanese isolationism where NO ONE saw that ONLY getting the reward for the rank you ended up in would be silly. Specially considering the different designs over each rank.

  2. The only reward I want the most, is the Feast armor set that you could only get if you were in the top 100… I hate the fact that the armor has not even been added as an item you can get from the pvp store or the crystal store

  3. Mount in the rewards will never be, certainly not for a rank. Because that would mean you have to put in effort or time to get a reward, and that's not something the ff community can do. Note, all rewards in the form of skins in pvp can be had by anyone. You can lose every match and still be rewarded. This is the main pvp in ff. If there was a rank reward in the form of mounts, non pvp players would explode. It's been done here before…. All rewards are made so that a player can get them regardless of whether they try or not. I can start a new character now and just die in every match and still, I will always be rewarded. There is a 200 ctystal difference between winning and losing. That's nothing. I get all the rewards in the series and for the crystals. Now imagine giving rewards where you have to show some effort. That's not gonna happen. Even collar weapons are now for everyone regardless of rank.

  4. Let's be real nobody is playing pvp for "fun". If there were no exp bonus, the majority of players wouldn't even look at the pvp content. Yeah, I'd say if you're a glutton for punishment and frustration pvp is right up your alley.

  5. I hope they never go back to offering exclusive glamour or mount rewards for top 100 or a top % of players in ranked PvP and that some day they bring back those old rewards for people to obtain again.

    The idea of unique rewards like that only ever being available to a limited portion of the players that happened to be playing the game at a specific point in time based on a relative performance ranking doesnt sit right with me. Unique things like that should be available to anyone at any point that can pass a clearly established bar of performance much like how EX trial/Savage/Ultimate rewards work.

    I feel like exclusive top 100/% ranked PvP rewards should be limited to things that are an explicit reflection of the achievement of placing high like trophies or titles that reflect your performance. I can only imagine what a newer player seeing someone with a cool old PvP glamour set or mount must think. They arent going to see that guy and think "he must be a PvP badass". They are going to see the mount/gearset, want it, and then look up how to get and be demoralized when they realize they can't no matter how hard they try.

  6. Yessssssss! I’m so happy. I guess they saw ranked not being as hot since people were purposely down ranking. Now we don’t have to! Time to jump back into ranked and get back to Crystal. Woot woot. So happy.

  7. The adage of “if you get a gold medal you don’t also get a silver and bronze” didn’t really fit this tier reward scenario anyway. The Olympics don’t award thousands of golds for the same event and then give everyone a silver if they don’t compete in the next one. Apples and oranges and all that.

  8. I will not relent nor will it stop being my pvp main BUT reaper needs help in pvp, at the very least just let me keep my stacks on death. Maybe silence everyone in my vicinity when I lb so I can secure a kill more easily and not have to hope my team bursts enough people so I can lb low hp ppl for a kill. It is rough shit out there being a solo reaper, in an actual teams reaper is probably decent and can build stacks comfortably but you can't get a proper team in solo. Im done ill go back to listening to gut's theme as I struggle in the ranks

  9. Absolutely no permanently unavailable performance gated exclusive mounts/gear. That stuff is a menace, and FFXIV's pvp isn't balanced (or hacker free) enough to even consider it.

    One huge balance issue is that the number of people playing and the relative skill levels vary wildly depending on when in the patch you play, which hugely impacts the level of skill you need to have to reach a particular tier depending on which particular week of the patch you're available to play. It's really ridiculous.

  10. Big rewards being locked behind higher ranks is abysmal. We know it discourages casual players (the lifeblood of the queue system) and it encourages hackers, cheaters, win trading, etc. Just put the juicy stuff in the series rewards. Easy, done

  11. EU tournament is a joke, most players cant play due to more then half EU Countrys being excluded, and to add salt to the wound they allow Australians to participate. This is Pure R……

  12. I thought this was how the reward supposed to work
    I really wanted the diamond tier frame because it’s better looking than the crystal one
    Also I’d love to use the bronze frame when I’m practicing new jobs😅
