Saturday Night Fights: Second Evolution
Date: Saturday, June 7th
Time: 3 PM Pacific/6 PM Eastern
Who: You, baka
What: Your face, getting wrecked
Where: Ultros
Why: Patch 2.28 unlocks all PvP skills by default
General Information:
The goal of GAF PvP Nights is to get a bunch of Gaffers who would otherwise not PvP to be able to do so in a fun environment where everyone is rank nothing except our several PvP veterans and all gear is the same to remove the crazy effect of gear weighting in this game's PvP. We can form up into groups, wreck each others' faces, talk some trash, and generally have a good time. There's a side benefit of having instant queues and a steady stream of PVP XP and Wolf Marks for all participants, which will certainly help everyone get some kind of baseline gearing for the upcoming Frontlines.
How to Kill Your Friends in a Few Easy Steps:
Gear: In order to enforce some kind of gear normalization, everyone who participates must be wearing Full AF1, the set which you got for leveling your job to 50. Your weapon must be PvE i90 or i95, this means you will be allowed to have Primal EX (Primal Focus), Levi EX, Allagan, or Relic Zenith or non-upgraded Relic Atma. You can have whatever accessories you want on your right-hand slots as long as they are PvE accessories. No PvP-specific gear will be allowed, period.
Special Case: For Marauders, they cannot equip the AF1 gear because it's specific to Warrior. For this particular job, the crafted i55 Militia set will be allowed.
Skills: As of patch 2.28, all basic PvP skills are now unlocked by default. There is no restriction on usage of skills.
Teams: PvP is currently a 4v4 Arena affair in the Wolves' Den. We will divide the players who arrive into teams of 4, queue the 4v4 50 cap tier in Glorious Nippon, and proceed to beat the living hell out of each other. Depending on which teams are winning regularly, I hope to rebalance the teams periodically during the course of the event. Unfortunately if a number of players not equal to a multiple of 4 shows up, we will have to do rotation of players in and out so everyone gets a chance to play. I'll probably be bad at this, so please only show up in a multiple of 4 so as to make my life easier.
Organization: There will be a calendar entry on Guildwork and a signup sheet so you can sign up. I will ask that people please sign up and enter their PvP Ranking in the Comments field. The goal is to normalize rankings so that teams will have average Ranking within 3, this will ensure the fastest queues because of how the game's matchmaker works.
