OP battles are way too long. 2 or more hours at the op, and a range weapon user can spend another 2 or more hours gathering mats and trekking packers.
I don't really understand the gvg regions. There is no reward system, in fact your normal pvp points don't work there. So aside from when super nodes refill why would a level 250 player need to run around a q100-150 region ganking level 100 diggers? It would make a little more sense if a q250 region was a pvp zone, but not sure if that would add much this late in the game, and many non-pvpers would complain.
Finally, even if there were more active pvp players, it's still just 1v1 or 3v3 etc. Fun, but no real objective other than pvp points or a wipe.
I guess in an ideal world you'd also get PVP points for killing players in GVG/PVP zones (PR, Nexus), and on top of that you'd have a broader selection of valuable stuff to buy with your PVP points as well. Such as a full armor set instead of just skirt. Or heck, maybe even be able to buy OP mats or marauder LA pieces for example. That'd encourage people to PVP outside of OP wars. BUT... the reason why that wouldn't work is because we all know how easy it is to exploit the system and use an alt or a friend from another faction to just grind those pvp points easily without any real need for pvp.
As for your other comment, there are other reasons to PVP in PR outside of supernodes as well. Bosses for example. There's a few valuable bosses and nameds in the q200 zones there.
But yea, unfortunaly it might be impossible at this point to change the system and allow people to gain PVP points from killing enemies in GVG zones. Otherwise that'd give extra incentive.
