This is an odd arguement. The role of PvP characters has greatly effected PvE characters- in the sense that you will look for the best mods(Near perfect works just as well), the max weapons, and unlock all the skills for that profession as well as the most popular builds being currently ran for that profession use.

If this is the case, why is your Warrior inferior to a PvP warrior? It isn't, so you can have no problem. Otherwise, this is an arguement of opinion- not fault in judgment or even fact.

I so enjoy killing in Vabbian Armor...it's hard work looking that good!

getting the equipment takes a long time (and is sometimes very expensive) but once you get it i find it easier to reroll. i dont like making 7 shields every time i roll a pvp character. plus you can get those unique PvE only items such as a req 8 shield. also you look cooler

Now that may sound strange, but it feels different playing with your PVE characters in PVP. Playing with a PVP character is just so "unpersonal". And if they've got the right gear why not?

Although I used to play with PVE Characters in PVP, I use PVP characters now, since the process to greate and equip them is much easier now and I can't be bothered to get the perfect gear for my characters, could change though...

but now that reward points exists and you can give your PvP chars new armors they feel a lot more "personal". tbh i'm using my PvP monk more than my PvE one although both have perfect equipment.

however, i find casters really painful to get PvP ready because they require a lot, and especially those really needed 20/20 are rare to find. >.>

the only time i'd ever take my PvE over PvP again is because my ranger has a leet hyena that annoys everyone with her sound.

Yes that's true, but reward points are unreachable for some players. My guild doesn't play GvG, I could do HvH but that's too boring with the current meta and I don't like this Arena anyway.

Guys guys guys I think we are forgetting probably the most common reason of all, the player is lazy. It has been mentioned before and I wanna say it again, I'd rather take my Necro out there with Basic white luxon and one staff spamming Corrupt Enchant than spending about half an hour manufacturing a pvp char and it's psycho amount of equipment and prepping just to delete it soon after.

Some situations with PvE chars make me cry though. Especially when a wamo decked in full fow with a tormented shield and stygian reaver charges to me and before assulting me popps up Healing Breeze. Sometimes budget luxon necro > 6 million dollar wamo.

Yeah, some people think that skill is linearly proportional to the expensiveness of their armour.

I prefer playing with my PvE chars. not just because of the 15K armour and the rare-skin weapons, but also because chars who were once, in a distant past, a lvl 1 noob in pre-seer are simply put WAY cooler than a pvp char created 10 minutes ago

I've put so much effort into my PvE warrior, I want to use him everywhere, I can run pretty much any build, I got any weapon I need etc.

PvP chars are boring IMHO...
PvE are unique...
