PvP realm should be 2x XP like tel'abim

I like PvP servers because they're immersive. But I don't find 2X rates to be immersive. Didn't get to play TWoW but I know it had cross-faction slop on PvE realms, so I'd definitely take a PvP realm if only to stay away from that. Don't understand what the issue is that make players want to have 2X rates. World PvP happens at all stages of the game, not just at 60. The entire game is quite literally designed from a 1X rates philosophy, with a strong emphasis on faction conflict.

Given the majority of players will be coming from Tel'Abim where they chose to play on a x2 server, it makes sense to me to keep it like that.

I'd personally prefer x2 XP as I find it more of a struggle to find time to grind to 60 now. The longer grind doesn't add much to the gameplay for me, and we're only starting from scratch because Turtle was shutdown, not because we want to grind to 60 again.

I know a few people that moved to x1 servers post-Turtle and got burned out with the grind or are finding it a struggle.

Just want to put my 2 cents.

I'm a firm believer in 1x exp. Especially on low populated servers.
The faster you level, the less times you spend in zones, and the more likely it is you skip dungeons. On low pop servers this makes finding groups / low bracket BGs even harder

Additionally, faster leveling also makes it hard to keep up with gold / training / equipment. So you end up being an underpowered char rushing for 60. (Which is a terrible experience)

Some thing I would love to see is mild incentives to stay in 19/29/39/49/59 brackets.
pvp in lower brackets has always been the best pvp experiences for me as Riad gear ruins the balance.
