there is a team version and a solo version, go in and fight or dont go in at all and stay in your safe hub cities waiting for minigames

yes and we all know those snails like teamplay .
i went there and on that one arena in caravanserai i had fun and unlike shrines of bori its pvp content, even with people trying to dodge solo mechanics then so can you and fight back, when tokens are actualy added self serving egotism should aid in making it a bit more competitive, even if it doesnt you will end up killing your friends willingly or not .

2v2 or 3v3 or 4v4 arena would be better I know, but then again comes class balance discussion, gear should not be problem cus Imo everyone should have same gear and aa.
if its 3v3 u take pom,conq and ranger /barb in team and it is automatic win.
You can't create more content to pvp if the heart of the pvp is broken, "class balance"
What i mean is there will be no use for guardian, dmg is low if opponent have healer in team, you cant do any debuffs, you will just get debuffed to death after your teammates are dead, and your cc's aint good.
unlike conq instant aoe kb and great team support

It still favors bubble classes, either group or solo though.
Do you think after necro dots are changed that a demo or necro will win the solo version? No, it will be PoMs, Guards, Conqs, any class with high survivability who can stay in the fight longer or who are focused last.
Group mode will be slightly better, but with how CC's work and the inability to lock opponents down squishy classes will just be free kills with limited LoS to kite with. It will still be up to the bubble club to win the fight after your casters get sent to the pad every 15 seconds.
I am excited they are doing something, but why not just make regular open world meaningful and rewarding. Just not liking someone is enough reason for me to want to pvp, why do you all need a reason outside of that? Nothing better than getting at people you dislike and listening to the things they say during and after...

wins are archtype based how many times its needed to be wrote down untill its understood :P
but yeah without doubt bubble classes are strong in that event, ranged class have plenty of nice places to stand and kill, but in the end it doesnt matter that much because its rewards are archtype based, and yeah i did win one of the arena events on my necro with nerfed dots

So the scores will look like this then:
Guard 30:4
PoM: 30:7
Ranger:30:12
Necro:30:25
I think you missed the point that squishies will pretty much be free kills in either solo or team setting with limited LoS and all the burst that exists now. Even if you win your archetype your going to still be coming from the rez pad every 15 seconds on a hox, demo, necro, tos, and possibly sin/barb. Events like this are all about survivability and target priority.
I'd rather see some kind of arena set up for teams, 2v2, 3v3, 6v6, or 12v12 that rewards group play rather than these attempts to make it look balanced. Who is going to want to play a HoX in any of these events and die 50 times, group or not?
