Another week has passed, and the weather is turning to fall. While this is not MY favorite time of the year, I know a lot of folks love it. I will be curling up with my heater, consoling myself with something spicy, and enjoying the fact that it's Feedback Friday again!
Today, let's chat about PVP. Specifically, how many Wizards do you have that enjoy stepping into the arena? Have you groomed one Wizard to be the best and defeat the rest, or do you enjoy the challenge of trying your luck in the ring with different schools and/or levels?
Please vote on the poll, and discuss below.
Stay warm, and enjoy your weekend! ::grin::

Well, my main balance wiz completed Azteca, so I pvp, since I don't have anything else to do. I have a level 10 wizard, that I don't talk about, which I was going to use for low level pvp, but I don't want to get into that tc world, so I don't pvp anymore, and rarely use that wizard.
I enjoy it being a challenge, all though I only pvp on one character, learning new ways to fight people, and having make up whole new strategies helps you learn to pvp better.

I am very into PvP, I have posted a topic on it that I highly recommend to be checked out, it has been seen as a great idea by many people, But I battle almost every day, I have a level 90 and 8383 and when you have nothing to do, well there's PvP if you want a challenge or a change of environment then the usual questing or farming.
its fun but after so long it gets boring cause u just battle low level u just outright beat them in the firstt 3 rounds and usually when its a higher level pvp there usually level like 54 ice or life and life just spam healing spells and ice just spam tower shield and usually have life mastery amulets and when they get damsged they just saytr sry if i spelled it wrong i can basically fireball anything in wizard city i have it enchanted with gargantuan though and have 62 fire damsge boost i ca basically do anything in celestia but i still do get defeated every once ad a while sry for all the spellig mistakes im typig fast so that is em also fire school is probably my favorite right now also what would be cool is if we could chage our wizards ame to something differet for like a thousad gold or somethig just a suggestion
I tried a pvp match when I first started the game about 2 1/2 years ago, and I tried another match a little bit before they went to the new age, but that is it. I wish I felt more comfortable about pvping, because I REALLY want to earn one of the unicorn mounts you can get with arena tickets, but something just doesn't seem right about it. I don't have time for matches that last hours, people can be incredibly rude, and the matching system is still not working right. As much as I want that mount, I just can't bring myself to step into the pvp arena, and probably never will.

i have to agree some people can be rude like (i probably wont play ranked match tell im like level 90) once i joined a ranked match and it was like a level 10 warlord that told me to flee and i didnt ad i beat him lol i thik he was mad but this was o my life accout im pretty sure also people probably threate people with this o efreet or i will report u or no storm lord or i will report u they take this way to seriously
I had three wizards that had done some ranked PvP in the "first age" but having lost my honestly earned rank (i only ever did 1v1) I am not going to start over. The climate is hostile, with way too many foul mouthed, unsporting players, and PvP is still rather pay-to-win at most levels. Matches can be very long (ruining Reshuffle did nothing to shorten them). players still find ways to cheat (glitch-outs, etc) so I am done with ranked unless something changes. Friendly practice matches & fan site sponsored tournaments with set rules can be a lot of fun though..
What might get me back to ranked would be a "classic" or "pure" division, with everyone in the same "arena only" gear, no may-cast pets or over-level TCs, just straight even-stated matches using only trained spells & level appropriate TCs.
I had one wizard that did PvP for a little while, but stopped. There was too much chatter from people watching, and too much smack talk. Also, it just had a slightly mean aggressive edge to it that was not fun for me.
Now I would like some of the spells from Diego, especially "conviction", but it is not worth it to me to have to go through PvP to get there.
Currently I only PvP with one wizard, my level 52 myth (rank 2020). I PvP with him exclusively these days because of all the great new arena gear for level 50s, and because Promethean PvP is currently broken. But to be honest, I'm tired of fighting level 90 wizards, 38 levels higher than me. Maybe there should be a cap on wizard level difference of 25-30 levels. Also, the high expense in arena tickets for this great gear has created a disincentive to quest and level up. There is simply too much time and arena tickets invested in my level 52 myth for him to level up any higher. Maybe you need to implement an arena gear trade in system.
Over the years I have PvP'd with wizards from four different schools. Both my Fire and Balance wizard are level 90 so I had to stop playing PvP with them since that level of PvP is currently broken and not fun to play. I wish there was an option for a higher level wizard to scale themselves down to a lower level to play PvP. My ice is level 68 and I occasionally PvP with him, but I got tired of playing level 90 wizards with insanely high critical or near 100% defensive resist. And it only takes a couple matches against Guardian Spirit to hang up your wand for good.
I miss playing PvP with my Promethean Balance in particular. I got him to warlord in this new age, but stopped due to it's current dysfunctionality. It's too bad the PvP department went way overboard with both critical rating and defensive abilities. They are both too far into the extremes and need to be scaled down to put it nicely. There was a time when subtle strategists like myself could successfully enjoy high level PvP. But now you either need to spam attacks with your over 400 critical rating, or tank tank tank with Jade gear and/or Guardian Spirit, and build for the one hit kill. Potent Trap and Sharpen Blade really changed the nature of PvP.
Over all, over the years, you have provided me a great deal of entertainment, and for that I thank you.
and 83
