  1. You making more videos like this when the Ranked Season starts on 20th? The top 100 reward probably gonna be sick af. Some speculate it might be the cruise chaser.
    It starts on the 20th july. Game will pop more regularly doing the season especially at th start

  2. the game lack social and PVP updates. doesn't have chat bubbles (you only look at chat box whole day which sux), smaller nameplates aka text font size option, voice chat, good 4v4 Arena style map like Heavens Arena from the King's Avatar animation, no frontline popout sound notification, outdated combat and subscription model, convoluted login/register system (cant even use afna at launcher reset password confirm email box), no blue mage in PVP, lack of innovations such combining already good PvE elements with PVP such as open-world raid bosses where players and guild fight to contest said bosses? compete for the boss. they could drop epic mounts o exp/gear tokens which could be a great alternative to story leveling. new players cannot share their content on ffxiv reddit…

    doesn't change the fact the game has 500 ms animation lock + 2.5s global cd tab targeting combat. 20 years behind. they thought they will fix the combat by adding crazy animations, but that also just cluttered the game. mybe they could lower global cd to 2 second but anything lower hard because crazy animations. but the core problem si still there. tab targeting combat. not even hybrid action combat with skillshots and dodges. elt alone true action combat like Smite, Vindictus r the Kings Avatar animation. WoW TBC, for example, ahs bunch of instant casts too but only 1 second global cd. also wow tbc has chat bubbles and voice chat… ffxiv only has emotes and chat box. and it sux watching into chat bo whole day that get spammed. it is not socially itneractive. or actually good 4v4 map like heavens Arena from the Kings Avatar or open-world raid bosses where players and guild could fight to contest them….or ability to tame open world monsters as your mount….innovate….more PVP events/rewards/mounts, combine PvE and PVP elements… and ffxiv community often mix competitive spirit and rivallry with toxicity

  3. How to play pvp frontlines-
    If you see shapes: You just interact to capture.
    If you see Iceblocks: You attack until it shatters
    If you see tall bridge: You climb and destroy robots
    If you see red pillar: You interact to capture then guard it with your life

    For killing- Just kill steal. DoT's can give 1 assist knockouts give 10pts.
    More battle high you have the tankier&more damage you have.

  4. Yeah… this kinda summs up my first time trying PvP … only that the numbers were reversed: 2 kills and 10 or more deaths… And I think it wasnt even "kills" but "assists" o.o … Yes, I'm really bad at this and havent yet seen any silver lining ^^Β°
    PvP in FF14 is better than its reputation – thats all I know πŸ™‚

  5. Been playing FF14 for 8 years but never tried PvP
    What's funny about this is I used to command 50vs50 PvPvE in Aion. I was afraid that I would be too hooked and nobody would be there.

  6. Rival Wing is a really good mode, unfortunately it's dead*. It's like a big PvP map except it has a bunch of moba-like mechanics with lanes and collecting resources to buy giant robots to pilot as you lead mobs to assault towers. Definitely the most fun experience i've had with PvP in XIV. The mode isn't alive normally but whenever there's certain time-limited tomestone bonuses it tends to come alive again because it has decent rewards, and also I know on one DC there's a discord group called "Revival Wings" who organize community games of Rival Wings when they can. If you ever get a chance to experience it, I recommend it.

  7. Is it as good as WoW? No
    Is it fun? Yes
    I highly recommend playing on Friday/Saturday nights if you have time because thats when its at its most competitive

  8. I really love pvp in this game, its a lot better balanced than in other games, and give you a lot of time to outplay your enemies.
    People call pvp bad, not because its bad, but because it has been changed.
    It was changed for worse many years ago, they cut almost all skills, you used to have all skills from PVE available in pvp and they changed it and everyone dropped the pvp hating it. With shadowbrigners pvp got a lot better with classes getting more skills and utility to help with a lot of problems pvp used to have.
    Now it pretty good.

  9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKuQYasDIW4 Pre-Stormblood PvP was simply something i still miss greatly, there was so much gameplay style choices like using PLD when doing team support style or WAR when you just wanted to be one man army. NIN was just too good in defending in modes like secure due stealth or BRD interrupting and putting pressure to enemy healers that usually sit way behind enemy frontline(not to mention healers loved your BRD for their support songs like MP regen).
