1. PvP Crucible Arena (official name still unknown!)
Patch 2.7 is introducing a new type of Crucible instance – PvP arena where players can fight against opposite fraction!!!
Arena will be divided into two type: 1vs1 or group 10vs10.

Players will receive Crucible Insignias, “Arena Medals” (name still unknown), Abyss Points as a reward from participating.
In order to enter Arena player need to have “Arena Ticket”, which can be obtained by doing quests. Tho after 7/14days these ticket if unused will disappear. from player’s inventory.
Gameplay on arena will be divided into 3 rounds, each will last 3 minutes, after time out it will change to another round. Players will earn points by killing opposite players and completing objectives on the map.
