I like the rewards, they seem appropriate and not massively unbalancing. I also like the fact that to stay at the top ranks you have to be active on that character. This will make sure there is some movement in the top ranks and only a certain number is ever at a certain rank (not as in daoc where almost everyone that has pvp'ed a while own a rr5/6+ character). That there will only ever be 0.1% of f.ex. the highest rank at any given time is a good thing, as the chanse to run into someone higher ranked (and thus with better gear) than you is less.
What i dont like is that there is nothing to prevent greyganking. And nothing to discourage attacking people that are fighting mobs. I know, i play on a pvp server, but its *not* honorable to attack someone fighting a mob. There should be a taging system for pvp as well imo, where if you fight a yellowcon+ mob you are flaged as a non-honorable kill for the duration of the fight and say 10 sec after. People could still kill you if they felt like it, but they wouldnt get an "honorable" kill for it.
