The equipment just gives pve players a slight edge of pvp only characters in number of weapon, armour switching, blah blah (read thread for all these differences). Please dont' start the whole "Pve players are better then Pvp" ~ "NO, PvP are better then PvE" argument, as it's been kept out of this thread pretty well so far.

What I meant from that statement is, that no player should percieve himself/herself as being special or feel that he/she deserves that extra edge in PVP, just because they brought a PVE character all decked out into PVP competition. In other words, I didn't mean "better" as in skill, I meant "better" as in feeling that they deserve those small advantages, just because they went through a GW campaign AND shaped that character for PVP.

If your talking about unlocking all skills through pvp then yes, it's gonna take a while.If your talking about unlocking enough stuff to be pvp ready though, it's gonna take a pve player MUCH longer to get thier skills/gear then a pvp player.

But it wasn't always like that, and many of the people that have posted in this thread i'm shure are amongst those that had to buy thier runes at higher prices, and the old greens were often crap causing them to buy perfect weapons and then buying mods for them. There is alot more grind involved for the pve player then the pvp only chars to get pvp ready. Skills also take along time in pve to unlock. You have to farm money to buy the skills, and some of the good elites are hard to get. Minly those that are aquired on the fire islands. Takes along time to get to them, even with runs. Many of the skills are out of the way and take alot of additional time to unlock.

. These could have completly different skins then what you can get in pve, but would only be assecible to pvp only chars. I think if this were implemented though they would need to cost more then 10k+ faction, since anyhting less would be to easy to get. But now i'm starting to get off topic...
Because, if you read Izzy's quote in the beginning, he specifically states that the only difference between PvE players and PvP only players should be cosmetic.
