I'm a new 50 with 0 expertise and with the purple gear and purple mods frm dailies that I got easily right after hitting 50 pvp really isn't that bad. I mean I'm squishy but that's to be expected, I really expected it to be worse. I don't think this all makes much sense and if I'm someone that put the time (the ridiculous amount of time I might add) to get my pvp gear already I would be furious...I'd rather see a chnge to the boring arse bag system grind personally...
