one simply requires time spent, the other requires skill
you can spend just as much time as someone and be just as skilled as them yet lose because they have better gear from doing rated warzones earlier
not sure what any of this has to do with the topic at hand
fact remains if you want to min/max for pvp you need to pve, and the same does not hold true for pve
why would giving an advantage to the best players be a good idea? if you join in later you will be at a disadvantage since the higher ranks will also have better gear
no **** all rakata isnt best for pvp... the point is if you want to be in the best possible position for pvp you need to do pve.. this does not hold true for pve
4v4 arena is a great idea, but rewarding better gear than through regular pvp is a bad idea, give the best some vanity gear, giving them a real advantage is idiotic
