So many things can be said about PVP in this game. Everyone has their opinions about what should and should not be allowed. Not everyone agrees with everyone else either. I want to know your opinions on PVP.
Is it balanced?
Is it fair?
Does it work as is?
Should battle potions be eliminated from PVP?
How much Tenacity is enough when developing a gear set?
Should Shadow puppets be allowed if all other companions are not?
Is the matching system fair?
Does it work?
Soulforge enchantment or enchantments of any kind, fair or no?
Does it seem like the game favors certain class combinations when matching?
Whats the best class?
Whats the worst?
Feel free to add to the list of questions. I look forward to seeing the answers.

Is it balanced? No way, they left bugs in from PC mod 5 that were considered broken and OP Is it fair? See above, though with the more limited gear on Xbox I'd assume its a bit better than PC atm Does it work as is? It works.. but so does a $300 pc. theres a different between working, and working WELL Should battle potions be eliminated from PVP? No How much Tenacity is enough when developing a gear set? Truth be told tenacity is a bad mechanic. A passive %dr in PvP to all characters that is even would be better, and the PvP gear could have some other benefits instead of essentially causing new PvP players to be killed over and over because they have not yet been able to farm PvP gear, either that or have an intro quest at max level that gifts a basic PvP set Should Shadow puppets be allowed if all other companions are not? Shadow puppet is an important part of The SW class, much more so for damnation spec, it's not a companion. but part of their damage, and only lasts for a set number of attacks unless fully specced into it. think of it as a passive damage skill. Is the matching system fair? Not sure what it would be like now, but I'd assume its a lot better than PC Does it work? Well. are you getting into PVP? then yes it does Soulforge enchantment or enchantments of any kind, fair or no? Some enchantments are inherently stronger than others, which is less fun, but they are fair in the sense anyone can obtain them (although 1% chance on pres wards is massively unfair compared to 100% for a 1k zen item) Does it seem like the game favors certain class combinations when matching? not really, it just puts people people who are in the queue together Whats the best class? Depends on your idea of "best" Whats the worst? Depends on your idea of "worst"
It Is massively unbalanced, 1 or less rogues you loose, 2 rogues is win if others only have 1 or less, if you have group of 3 rogues your team will dominate. No other class matters in pvp, is probably why there are so many rogues.

You are..... how do I put it in a nice way, misinformed?
Should Shadow puppets be allowed if all other companions are not?
Yes. Warlocks need all the help they can get.
Is the matching system fair?
Not at all.
Soulforge enchantment or enchantments of any kind, fair or no?
Not at all fair. Soulforged especially gives such an advantage against those who don't have it that I'd say it's game-changing. Sure, you can beat people that have it if you massively outplay them. I could beat people 2 on 1 while at 5% hp if I massively outplay them (or I should say if they make a massive amount of mistakes). That doesn't mean I wasn't at a huge disadvantage.
Whats the best class?
Devoted Cleric & Rogue. I'd say it's about a tie between them because a DC's heals vs a rogue's infinite back-capping potential make them close in the ability to carry games.
Whats the worst?
Warlock by far. Right now they are like a mediocre DPS with virtually no helpful utility for their team. They get easily destroyed unless the opponent is AFK or completely new to PVP or possibly has their controller disconnect. Sure, they can put an annoying DoT on me or deal some burst, but they just lack the utilities to be truly effective in PvP. Any other DPS is better and more useful for many reasons, especially Rogue / CW / HR.
Ultimately I wish there was a mode where a player's gear / enchantments / stats were all equalized somehow, so that a player or team's skill played the biggest part in winning a match. PvP gear could give different sorts of advantages such as gaining more glory / rare items / astral diamonds / other rewards for winning matches.
I also wish there were other gametypes or maps, such as Team Deathmatch or Capture the flag or Team Elimination.
The PvP could be really great in this game if they just added more to it and made some changes with balance.

Nope even I have a rogue alt for level 60 pvp, just like you obviously do
It's no secret at this point.
Um I obviously have what? A TR Alt? No I have 0 Alts and 1 TR.
What secret?
