lets take alook at the overall pvp
1. domination pvp needs new maps and something more then daily ad to be worth doing
2. gg pvp cant realy speed up th que but make the map smaller and smaller versus, will give more a chance to get in
if you run it in 10 min segments then you can get 3 sets in, instead of forst team taking up 20 to 25 mins of the 30 min, make the map smaller say 10 on 10
3. new twist but will reguire devs to do their homework,
make 2 seperat towns 1 dels 1 luskin pe remains neutral, special 1 time week war winner can cross over and invade the others town kill all npc for special rewards and say lotto cards turn in the cards for chance of equipment, loosing team can hide or not login after they loose . But make it worth the while to do these.
The lotto can get net you anything from ad to armour wepaond , enchantments to companions

I personally would rather see the Daily astral diamond quest for pvp removed.
And maybe replaced with AD trophy for best scored players on both teams. Maybe something like 2000 for team's best, 1000 for second, 500 for third, 200 for fourth. It would give reason to actually play even when on losing side.
Bugs are bugs. If it was an easy fix, it would of already been fixed. It also has nothing to do with the creation or balance of PVP.
It is not like you MUST do PvP for 4000 AD. Do you really think I do often Dayly Foundry lol? Granted it is more lucrative when Lord Neverwinter adds his bonus quest, but even then it is not biggest source for possible AD income.
As to PvP changes here are my ideas:
PvP offers currently. 5vs5 PvP and Gauntlgrym. Developers has stated that during this year sooner or later PvP will get a major update. There is no information what it could be perhaps a new area different then Gauntlgrym and/or new form of PvP example Capture the Flag.
Personally I would love to have Capture the Flag or a nice big outworld map like Alterac Valley 40vs40 in WOW. That said I take happily any new content I get to PvP.
PvE: Well we got the BOON grinding that is not my favorite part and huge time consuming. However I do like the Dungeons and Valindras Tower, Malabog Castle, Castle Never etc.
I think this game takes turns like waves.... next update will very likely focus on PvP, but it could be mixed zone(compare Gauntlgrym). The update after that will likely focus on PvE again.
You seem to have that one uber PvP character fine. I have 3 max level characters. All my max characters are not so powerful in PvP my DC 12,8k being the weakest but even with him I almost never quit(only if real life reasons).
Yes I have sit by campfire but that comes not from being on loosing side it comes from situation when you realize you have no chance. There is not realistic chance if 2 players are left to fight 5 for example at least if the 5 enemy players are alert and guard all nodes well.
It is not all about you super PvP character. There are casual players example my real life friend is 10,6k Wizard and even he is much better gs then many casual players. Casual players have the right to earn the AD reward as the others.
Actually for me it is fun that sometimes casual players or more PvE players do rarely PvP instead that PvP becomes some rare elite community a minority that only does it for the PvP itself without AD rewards. Yes I do know I can salvage PvP bought armor but PvP quests should remain. Best solution would be that every time a PvP player leaves the game he get 10 min ban to join PvP que and the player that leaves is replaced by another player.
As for my one 'uber' character as you so put it. I have 7 characters, 6 of which are all max level, all of them having more than enough glory for the pvp t1 sets before they were ever 60.
As oppose to only having 2 maps for the standard 5v5 pvp, no arena setup, nothing other than domination, etc.. etc.. etc.. I know you go in to all of the pvp threads and push pve, however I believe most people agree, PVP needs a little something.
note, most, so there are still people who don't.
There is actually a good difference with different max level 60 blue items. My rogue prefered to use a blue level 60 helm because it was
A. Better then HAMSTER PvP T1 HAMSTER helm and also better gs gave.
B. At least 2 items of a set is useful to get of a set to get combo bonus so a new max level 60 character would get lots of benefit to have 2 armor pieces of T1 PvP items and the rest of glory well you can use it for main hand and offhand weapon.
My Rogue did not replace the blue helm until he got Gauntlgrym helm.
Players that get so much glory before level 60 that they buy everything with glory is a small minority. Finally no AD rewards should not be removed and I like to kill casual players that rarely enter PvP, but they have full right to AD as everyone else.
