Let me just say what I feel, and its strictly my opinion. The problem with pvp, is ever increasing gear for dps. This favors classes that sit in the back and blast away (e.g. ranger, demo, necro) or classes that already have insane HP like a guard or Conq. It severly hurts classes like a hox or tos, even sins if they don't take feat protections. We need PVP gear to balance out the dps of pve gear by offering additional protection. I just don't have 3 hours every other night to get gear, or learn the strats, or get in a guild that would let me one off raid. I do like the pvp advancement, its more on my schedule.
