I personally view Arena pvp as (depending on opponent) requiring a higher skill set than zones. Generally it's a fairer fight, even teams, one set of inspirations.

/em agree

Arena pvp is humongously buggy years after going live

Also true

Arena is a number crunch and there is little poetry to it, by this i mean its timed so its merely smash as fast as you can as often as you can, there is little opportunity for subtlety or innovation.

Not necessarily true, have you tried 'king of the hill' mode?

Its massively uncustomisable, you cant even chose a map relevant to your numbers, how many times have we been stuck with the damn office map with a crazy amount of people?

Hehe my trollers like the office muahaha

Sometimes i here people getting anoyed because they are wanting a one on one and if you interrupt there fight you'll end up in an arguement and they ignore when you say one on ones is for the arena.AND ITS ANOYING!!

More pvp events for all lvls would be nice, as a "casual" pvp (Only 4+ hours per dayish in pvp) I would like to take part in more pvp events, but as I have no hero near lvl 50 (and point blank refuse to pay to use the test server) Im kinda left in the cold.

The few arena tournements I have been in were fun once we got past the random crashes and clunky system ,but in the end I found that I had a better pvp experience in the zones ( pointlessly easy wins are no fun for me :P).

The big SC event with Bridger and Rockjaw was ok..I guess..
I got a bit annoyed with the lag, but then so did everyone.

Sorry to be a little pedantic, but the Test Server is free.

Ummmm you dont pay to use the test server! Follow the instructions here.

I do think the devs should be alot more proactive and have some mini competitions which help get more people interested.

There are lots of events that go on but I guess it lacks an audience as people miss them. For example this Sunday several villain groups have banded together to invade Sirens Call. The week before there was a warburg send off to Kinslayer (leaving the game). Thus its not all level 50 stuff.

The arena has so much potential but they seem to be very lackluster and not make any improvements to it as its on the bottom of there list of things to do.

Just to re-edit my post and expand on my stance regarding the test server..

As I have not seen all the content yet and even now am still learning features of the game, I see no point in me using the test server to test the game for the devs....The last theing they need is me in their petitioning random stuff I think are bugs when they are WAI.

Im guessing you have to have a valid account to use the test server..so in theory I would have to pay to use it, if not ah well Ive learnt something new

You need to have a valid account, but not an extra one. It's like using the forums, you can't write on them if you don't have a valid account, but you needn't pay extra once you have it
