What point PVP?

Feel free to call me out on this, but I can't see any reason to participate in sanctioned PVP. I mean, the gear available for ticket trade-in pales in comparison to epic or legendary gear that you find or is even less useful if you actually craft high level gear or drop crowns into boss treasure chests.

I think KI needs to put some updated gear out there. Oh, and crown shop gear too. That stuff ... no point in buying crowns for it.

This seems almost a philosophical question to me, so it requires a good answer. PvP is almost like a real-life sport, and is fun for the same reasons but with a few bonuses. People are competitive. PvP allows them to test their power and skill in combat against the limitless variables of a human mind, rather then the strict parameters of an AI opponent. It lets them achieve status, and gives us max-levels something to do. PvP was originally intended, if I am not mistaken, to be a way of honing our skills, in case a magical foe ever arises that calls for our full potential. It has however, evolves far beyond that. Hope this helped :)

The reason I play PvP is because I really enjoy it.

I agree with you! PvP just brings out the worst in people! Also this game has thier pvp all sorts of wrong thier is no competition if ur opponent outranks you in all fronts. To make it better it sould be an even match up also they sould make the rewards worth it.

Sounds like you don't like PvP. I'd recommend doing PvE instead.

I PvP because its a great post-game activity and no one really uses the gear, just the look. PvP is supposed to be fun, not for personal gain.

you get bragging rights to call yourself a warlord if you are skilled enough.
P.S. it is ranked pvp not "sanctioned".

It's both. The Ranked booth says Ranked in the pop-up, but in the Go To Arena screen says "Sanctioned" across the top.
