Mini Games were originally just that. A small game that you could play here and there to change things up.
Mini Games was never meant to be, or ever should be our main pvp content. We need open world pvp brought back to life.
Funcom needs to stop looking towards mini games any time they finally decide to work on pvp!
Maybe if Funcom gives some kind of open world pvp system or incentive we will see pvp'ers back on Tyranny once again.

Removing gear bonusses from PvP-Combat may be a good idea. But please, don't repeat the mistake of making group-based minigames optional and remove all the rewards.
If non-gear PvP will be an option for existing minigames (or introduce a new map without gear stats), then let the rewards (PvP-XP, AA-XP etc.) be identical (or even higher) to those in gear-based PvP.
This way, you should get a two-tier minigame community:
- a "pro" tier with gear stats, where only the foolhardy or those "pro" gamers with maxed out bori gear hang out
- a "noob"* tier without gear stats, where the undergeared or bored "pro" gamers will compete on a fair level
That would be a good thing. Two-tier-minigames have been proposed several times (eg. PvP-levels 0-4 and 5-10), and this system would even be better. Players with high levels would be free to join the "noob" tier, and PvE gear wouldn't imbalance the "noob" tier minigames.
But please, please, please, don't remove or reduce the rewards from the "noob" tier. That would force players to play in the "pro" tier anyhow if they ever wanted to move forwards gear- or AA-wise. The gear-less minigames would then stay deserted, just as the group-based minigame option is hardly (if ever) used now.
Thus, two birds with one stone.
*This is not meant to be insulting. I'd consider myself a candidate for the "noob" tier.

AOC is going Guild Wars 2. Boring!!!
Each time FC makes a step and divides the community , FC does so with the hope that the divided sets will reproduce . Maybe my mathematics are poor compared to yours , maybe my probability theory is also bad , but tell me how many times the fresh sets managed to reproduce?! If they didnt manage so , what were the consequenses?!
You're trying to create a GW-like pvp crowd that will log and have pvp as main focus while accessing and consuming buffs from store. The basis of this idea is not bad , but tell us further axioms pls!
Isolation of sub-sets is risky . I hope your choices will be wise and luck on yours and ours side.
