No and No, the point of gearing up and progress of your toon is to become stronger then everyone else. What is the point in being the same, a hero in movie isnt the same as the rest of the tools they kill.

Except when that gear comes from raids, right?

It's more fun to have a fair competition then it is to have a system reward based on grinding.

Any MMO that has taken steps to neutralize the impact of gear in their respective battlegrounds or whatever has seen a lot of complaints and people avoiding that game mode. People want their gear to have an impact because they worked to earn it.

However, as long as gear is taken into the equation you will always have this "problem." This is the nature of MMOs and it isn't the expertise stat, it's just the fact that they out gear you.

- Adien, 50 Assassin - Jest, 50 Sniper
- Kijaar, 15 Sentinel

Except for SWTOR in the 10-49 bracket where PvP is less broken than 50.

You don't seem to realize "raid" gear in this game is already completely obsolete vs. pvp gear.

There is absolutely no incentive or reason to do anything involving hard mode flashpoints/nightmare operations beyond carbonized crystal alloy (whatever the fk) crafting mat.

So just keep playing in that 10-49 bracket if you cant handle the heat in the 50 bracket.
