I mean its not a problem with the amount we get by winning. The problem I see is that if you lose you dont get any conquest. I mean if the enemys factions keeps on winning getting better pvp gear the opposite faction can never win especially when some maps give the advantage. But i am no expert in pvp bgs and I am just wanting to voice out that opposite faction that loses should get at least half or a quarter of conquest. The reason why I also think it encourages more pvp and allows some people who play pvp alot to match up against the other faction.
P.S. It doesnt help when some players on your team are idiots to how the Bg is won.
There is a Conquest Cap, and many activities that will gain you Conquest. Not just BGs. So long as you don’t fall behind on the weekly cap. it shouldn’t be much of an issue if your focus is pvp.
Only issue is if you dont do Rated you are missing out on the Vault giving you Freebie Conq gear.

If you award conquest for losses, even a small amount, the Bots would take over.
No. It is not difficult to cap conquest without running ANY rated content. Between quests and PVP chest drops, it’s pretty easy to cap conquest every week.

As someone gearing up an alt class I’m not too good at to hop in arenas on, it does annoy me how I could do 4 bgs and lose them all and get no conquest.
That being said, there’s a bunch of activities that give conquest. I usually try to get a daily skirmish/bg win, then fly around DF looking for a crate drop or bounty. Getting conquest after falling behind is a short term problem. They already buffed conquest amounts from all sources back in SL, so I think there’s no further conquest buff needed in the game.
Why would you get some for winning?
This is a weird comment. Gear is so easy to get now and the gear gap isn’t as big. And like in the past, at some point everyone will be on even playing fields. The gear system was basically fixed and people are still complaining about gear gaps.
The conquest you get for winning is minimal after your first win of the day. Most people use other sources like world content, quests, and rated content to also get conquest.

This would be true if there was no conquest cap
If the enemy wins a lot, they can only win up to 550 conquest that week even if they win 100 bgs
If you can’t get 550 conquest in a week when there are world pvp wquests and weekly skirmish/honor earned quests you’re the problem, not the faction

The difference between basic honor gear you can farm in a couple of hours win-or-lose and full conquest gear is only 3% — a max gear level difference of 13 levels.
I don’t think that minuscule worst case scenario has anything to do with losing a BG. It’s more not knowing strats and/or not cooperating.
