    I would be ok with it maybe if everything was available for builds on the PVP side that we have now. I don't see how it would work though.

    The problem isn't about separating PVP and PVE; it was their original approach on building skills. They also went with morphs that set this standard. You see this from a high level that led to the unit level of their design; they should have kepted the skills themed and added to the trees than to maintain a cohesive theme. They should not have went in the direction to supplement the short sightedness with gear and limited char attributes to a trinity. This isn't an arcade game where you can do those things.

    I like your suggestions :) Even though I really doubt that they would release such version...
    I would only play it if it was
    f2p (for TESO owners)
    , of course. And have an option to transfer all my AP from ESO (since it would become useless in this game) to that PvP version.

    The only downside for me would be - I would almost stop playing ESO (just do some quests I still have left and there would be nothing else to do) :/ That would be really sad, cause it would mean all my beautiful mounts and costumes would go to waste since I couldn't show them while playing PvP. I very rarely do group content like dungeons and trials nowadays, so PvP is the main activity where I get social interactions in ESO. This could be solved by allowing to copy all owned cosmetics to that new PvP version.

    Also, if that game would have something like Crown Store, there would be need to have gifting there (and/or ability to safely trade gold for crowns).

    And Battlegrounds would need to have option to choose preferred match mode (yesterday I played ~30 random BGs, and got only 3 DMs) :| I'm very very tired of this.

    I would hope to keep my goodies also in this concept.

    I think this type of PvP game under f2p would gain a large following, streaming views, & new players that would have never played a mmo pve to be competitive in a mmo PvP.

    On PS & PC, f2p/b2p PvP games surpass most pve games in popularity. ESO PvP (not including this meta) is great when it works, & fun to watch.

    An absolutely horrid idea.

    I wouldnt play either version.

    The seperate server idea was the only decent one

    Awful idea.

    PvP is fairly balanced when it comes to skills.

    The only really broken skills are health based burst heals. Which they could fix through battle spirit in some way. To be honest, even if they just flat reduced it. WWs don't need a massive heal and warden's heal is just overkill in pve.

    The other broken things are proc sets, which if they nerfed, wouldn't massively hurt PvE as proc sets aren't used for end game, only questing, which doesn't matter if people do a bit less damage.
