this post made my eyes bleed while trying to read it.
"rly" vs. "really"
considering how much you rambled on, i "rly" don't think you needed to abbreviate that. -_-
you comparing pvp people wearing pvp gear to raid, vs. pve people wearing pve gear to pvp, is really inconsequential to the discussion at hand, because it's not about gear.
everyone knows getting gear (pvp or pve) in this game is super easy. my guild takes a noob through EC HM every week just to gear them up in full campaign gear so that we have more people we can use for TFB. PVP gear is even easier. you don't even have to win to get gear.
a more fair comparison would be if someone good at pvp, was equipped with full DG gear, would they do better than a regular pve'er.
to that, i would say, yes. pvp requires you to be much more of a resource hawk. you are a sitting duck if you have no force/energy/heat/whatever. you are much more in control of your cooldowns, vs. the typical pve players who just hit the button every 2-3 minutes.
regarding "cheap"? that's not cheap, that's efficiency. raiding uses the same thing. you bypass mobs in raids that you don't have to fight, don't you? is that cheap?
