Why do you play 5s/5v5?

[Fat Tire]

But again, i'm not sure i'm answering your question. I do 5s right now strictly for the conquest gear. the arena system is such a joke in 5s these days, that I don't find the enjoyment from it, so I'd rather get my conquest points as quick as possible.

If you didnt pve would you still pvp with 5? If you didnt pve what are the benefits of boxing pvp 1 dk+ 4rets(5v5) over boxing 1 dk + 1 ret (2v2) for example. Also for argument sake I have killed shamans/priests and locks in the first 10 sec of combat before in 2s.
