What they should do is remove base resilience from outside arena and BG's and remove the huge gap between the gear, which I think someone mentioned. Then you'd have it similar to how it was in Wrath, PvE gear was more of something used for big crits and not an instawin factor. If you then switched to PvE gear you would become a glass cannon, aka you swap survivability for more damage instead of becoming a boss.

I looked through the list and knew you'd link that when I said top PvPers, which makes me return to my original question of what counts as evidence then? Because apparently, you think nothing does.
