Actually, PvP Arena is under PvP group under Action tabs.

Arena counts for PvPer.

Not really... That's just your vision of it.
Even though I manage to break almost any sets in PvP I have no talent for Arena... Two TOTALLY different aspects...


HCS considers it PvP. :)

Arena is as a matter of fact, a way of PvP. However, it's VERY wrong to mix the arena with PvP since they both work VERY differently.

Yeah, it's PvP cause it's Player vs Player.

But it's not what's generaly designed as PvP.

You can tell me that BH and GvG are forms of PvP, that I will go with you as they use the same mechanics.

But otherwise, I won't include Arena in PvP other then by definition :)

I remember in a discussion about opt out that was started by Hoof, that many who were against the option stated specifically that they would go for it if it meant opt out of GvG, arena and BH. So others must consider it PvP also. :)

I actually followed that discussion too :) Some might consider it PvP and that's fine. But I don't.
I also think that some have proposed that to take away the arena from the levelers posting in favor of the opt-out. Some of them were pretty good at it lol.

I just state the facts, as HCS declares them. :)

Arena is a way of PvP. I'm just saying that it's wrong to compare the arena to actual PvP as the arena inflicts no damage in any way. And thus the PvP arena and actual PvP should have separate polls.

Same thing here :)
And ev, I think we are not really arguing here lol. I know the facts very well as you do so it's all good I think :wink:

The poll is fine as I see it, because of HCS classification. Not mine, but HCS. :)

I am a Titan Hunter,part time gold theif. Because of these activites I am forced to level, for titans; to get better gear to 1 hit, for gold; for targets with more gold on hand. As such, im a leveler by default lol

First, as a successful arena jockey and an accomplished bounty hunter and hitter, I can say that trying to compare the two as similar activities is about as successful as claiming birds and fish are closely related. They're both animals, and they spend most of their time off land. That's about where they end the similarities.

PvP and Arena are player versus player. They both require large gear pools to be really successful with.

And that's about the end of the similarities.

PVP inflicts direct damage on your opponent, involves theft, and has all sorts of passive abilities involved. Buffs, relics, and LUPs all play a tactical role.

The Arena relies on stat maximization, set formulation, and gear supremacy. In move tourneys, specific strategies are required to thread the needle between wildly variated opponent combinations.

They're two totally different beasts. The vast majority of arena players don't do real PvP, and the vast majority of skill PvP players don't have the first clue at how to be successful in an arena environment. Both playstyles are counter intuitive to each other.

As for this junkball poll, I do everything with the exception of SE hunt. I haven't Titan hunted in a while, but that's because I really see no reason to.

I only do PvP. I get more satisfaction out of it rather than leveling up indefinitely :roll:.
