I play PvP for the above reasons, because I need to in order to achieve PvE goals. I hate PVP, I hate the PVP environment. Mostly because of loud, obnoxious, judgy PVP players. Even still, I know it's crucial to achieve/hold objectives in the PVP game rather than just run around like emo edgelords trying to kill/whomp everything. Thankfully, once I meet my goals, I won't bother with PVP anymore so no need for pvp gear.
