Currently, situation of BS is pathetic because BS change did by FC in last months. In fact - since twinks dont't sing up because daily players (BS daily) just waits for BS to end, there is no challange. Yet, BS - itself, could be more usefull.
My suggestion is:
Allow to buy Experience (NODROP) from vendor by using Victory Points.
Stack of 2% experience (no metter if for research or regular experience) - costs of 3000 VP's. NoDrop - as Token packs.
It's a fact that many, many twinks that are done, lack of research here and there - they grind Infs just to finish whats needed to PVP/PVM on best way, but you do'nt see them in BS.
It's just a suggestion - but could revive state of BS thing and - if there are no XP for gaining PVP experience, it could turn into BS farming for those who prefer PVP over PVM.
