PvP is nothing but a time sink and a headache, but I'm a completionist so I'm going to get the title if I'm already playing the event.
The state of console PvP lobbies is absolutely disgusting, and has been for a while now.
It's completely infested with lag and device crutchers, and in the rare instance that you don't match with those demographics, everyone else is a bot.
PvP should always be an optional path, especially for week long events.

Why? There are players which mostly play pvp, almost no pve. So why would you take those couple of titles away from them?

How are you going to call yourself a completionist while asking to be given a title without completing everything lmao.

Goes both ways. PvP quest? Should have PvE options. PvE quest? Should have PvP options.

Until they remove mandatory PVE, they shouldn't remove mandatory PVP. Crucible is made up of more than cheaters, lag, and bots

Bro its been 2 years. I have to rank up guardian rank by doing tedious stuff in d2 pve. Add a burn? I know that already. Oh wait, you did a master at guardian rank 4? Too bad son, do another 1 hour pinnacle op on master difficulty. There is no alternate path for guardian ranks for like 2 years which were instrumental in unlocking extra loadout slots. Just saying

Honestly, for any title that has mixed activity requirements, there should be a PvP and a PvE route for it. This is why I genuinely loved the pathfinder, but nope they had to get rid of that, didn't they?

Edited by FENIX: 8/3/2025 12:10:51 PMNah. I like it. You don't? Don't play it, it's just a title. Also that bot/lag/cheaters/whatever bs is complete nonsense as usual. I'm finished with gilding Sharpshooter, saw maybe one-two guys who were a bit suspicious in three days, and almost no lag for me at all. Nice fake acc though.

They know PvP sucks, so as usual they will make sure we all have to be forced to play it to get loot, so THEY can then pretend players give a damn about their broken elitist and cheater-filled PvP...

Just wait until you see what you have to do to gild the title. The easiest way to ruin a "Fun" event and turn it into a sweaty rage-fest is to give us a triumph that requires us to win PVP matches. My Win-Loss ratio is so bad, I'm thinking of posting a bug report.

The game, actually ALL GAMES, are a time sink so that's hardly a legitimate complaint. PvP is however a headache in my opinion and as much as I want to snag the Sharpshooter seal, I can't bring myself to play it. Between the sprint bug and my disinterest, that triumph looks to go incomplete. Still, outright removing it simply because some of us aren't a fan of the mode is hardly fair given that PvP mains are occasionally expected to play PvE for rewards.
