I personally feel like open PvP between different factions or groups(guilds?) makes the world feel alive and is a fun aspect. I think one of the many, many factors that led to the decline of WoW over the years was being able to turn off PvP. Not advocating for FFA PK'ing like Asheron's Call of course, but definitely PvP being a part of the open world gameplay. I think it is a must for any MMO.
Corruption is there because they want to make you think twice about killing another player, but don't want to outright prevent it.
Players that want to focus their time on PvP in Ashes shouldn't be participating in any PvP that even results in corruption. These players should be focusing on node wars, guild wars, caravans, sieges (node and castle), or even the arena.
These are all types of PvP intrepid wants to encourage people to participate in. PvP that results in corruption is PvP that Intrepid want to discourage.
