Black Jack Silver brought this up when we were in ranked and I wondered why not make PvP? What do you think?

Because Ranked PVP is where the money is, dedicated PVP-ers maintain their memberships just for Ranked; others use Crowns for a seasonal pass, 24 hour pass, or per match.

They should be a limited time free Ranked PvP or something cause rank pvp is currently DEAD

Making it free won't revive it, then. Having a Ranked event would be better. KI did this a couple years ago; fight 5 bouts and be entered for a random draw crowns reward.

PvP is dead, because the only reward you get these days is a single new pet. There isn't an incentive for most players to continue Pvping, beyond the usual players in the arena who simply like Pvping to PvP.

I'm personally looking forward to improvements to Ship PvP, given the "timing" aspect it brings to the game, and presumably, new Ship PvP gear.
