If PVP gear had a PVP stat on it, where the gear was stronger in PVP than PVE gear, but not as strong as PVE gear in PVE environments; it would solve the problem of PVErs only doing PVP for the sake of gear. Only people who actually want to PVP for the sake of PVP would que up for unranked and ranked pvp matches. Which would prevent a lot of frustration from both PVPers who get stuck with teammates who really would rather be gearing in PVE, and frustration from PVErs who would rather be doing flashpoints and operations to gear up but find gearing through PVP so much quicker.
