I can think of a few PvP wins/comebacks that were epic stories. Last-minute points that resulted in fist-pumping with people that you've never met before. It's great!
I queue up for ALL Feast PvP match-ups (except the ones where you're already in a fixed party) and after about a 30 minutes wait, the queue pops. So there is someone explaining to me who to go after and other things to pay attention to. About 5 more seconds until the gates go down and they point out I'm still wearing 58 gear....Marigold is a new 60 >.<
At first, I think "no big deal, it's just PvP" and I even said that. Little did I know that I was in a RANKED match......It was then I knew why the tank was a bit frustrated. Yet even with my low ilvl, I was able to get 2 kills and we won the match.
I think it surprised all of us but afterwards, the guy credited me for actually doing really well, but just needing better gear. I had a good time (much better than PvP as a BLM) and when I get better gear, I might try ranked again.
And yeah, really, while ilevel does play a big part in PvP, knowing your skills and how to use them can go a very long way. Good on you! +_+
