What character is better for HOH. Is there any times a PVE character can be better than a PVP character with everything unlocked ?

No, there isn't.

Well the times I think a PvE character would have an advantage is with changing armor. You could have multiple sets of armor with different runes attached so you can change skills without having to create a whole new character. As in going from max air ele to max fire ele or whatever. You would have to change runes in order to do that, and would be easier with a PvE.

This is assuming you have lots of money and skill points for your PvE.

Yes... technically the ultimate character would still be pve... but that time required is... wow? The advantage are not that great...

Im pretty sure there are collectors in both UW and FoW that give items that cant be unlocked for pvp...ie. uber healing ankh's for monks. havent seen them myself but i hear they collect 60 umbril limbs and dark remains. Confirmation on this would be nice.

I believe both PvE & PvP characters can have 4 weapon sets. When creating a PvP character there is more then 1 set of slots for weapon/focii there?

Thes only real advantage that a PvE char has over a PvP only char:

- Different armor sets. The PvE character can have multiple armor sets in their inventory and swap them around on the fly, while a PvP character would have to be remade to swap armor's.

Question - Can PvP character's use/get attribute refund points via PvP? If they can't, that's another advantage for PvE characters... the ability to swap points around on the fly (assuming refund points available).

how far have you been through FoW? ive been all the way to the burning trees with those fricken enoying hydra things and then too the giants. im not sure how much there is after that but i have friends that have been to the final arena. Im almost POSITIVE there is a collector

. as far as the items being +15%^50% you can find items like that in pve. so there is no difference between pve and pvp for the weapons.
