PvE vs PvP gear

[Deleted]

I dont know if its better to use a 476(489)il pve gear or Dreadful 458il, have anyone done so researches when PvE gear is better then PvP in RBGs, I mean damage dealing aspect of this.

For hunters, PvP-power is the number one PvP-stat. That means we can't afford to switch to a pve-item just because the agility/crit looks appealing.

This is the case for everybody. You should NOT be using PVE items (aside from weapons if you aren't doing RBGs/arena) in PVP. The PVP power and resil on pieces of PVP gear are such enormous jumps in effectiveness over higher core stats on higher ilevel PVE gear that it's not even worth consideration.

Yep, with this expansion pve gear is useless for pvp but pvp gear is amazing for pve.. forcing all dedicated raider to pvp. It's kinda the opposite of last season where all pvpers were qqing about pve gear in pvp.

Just like people in pvp gear should not be allowed in pve 5 mans or raids blizzard should set instances to scan ur toon for pvp gear n if you enter one the game tells you to gtfo and boots you on your ass!!!! and no pvp gear is not amazing for pve.

You need basicaly 30ilvl more on pve weapon when you wanna use it instead of pvp weapon.

Thank you for a non-useless response.

At some point, PvE gear will trump PvP gear. When is the question.

PvP gear, pvp power is completely unbudgeted AFAIK which is why it got reduced in ilvl

Last season?
Try the last 11.

I will tell you the difference. I run 30% pvp power My CB hits 110k on a fully dreadfull person 75k ish in malevolent. On a no resil person 250kish
