The war equivalent to a duel would be cross faction 6v6. Thats something that might work pretty well.
Those saying duels are just for fun or to learn the class. You don't learn to pvp by duelling. Duels dont replicate wars orvr at all. Its a group game you would learn far far more in 6v6. How does a tank learn to tank in a duel or a dps to peel for a healer? It doesnt teach you anything you wouldnt learn far far better in orvr and really makes you worse as dps start to forget about group play which is key not dps rotations.
War isn't too different from some other PvP mmos.
Neither do you learn to PvP effectively as a Witch Elf, or a Magus, by tagging onto a huge WB.
6v6 is the best way, yes. But dueling is for fun, I reiterate. Crafting doesn't have a huge impact on the orvr, neither would dueling.
Actually dueling teaches you how to tackle certain opponents/classes, which can prove invaluable in scrims/out in the open while roaming.
