PvP>Pve in personall skill
PvP=Pve in communication and coordination (if you are a raidleader or officer as a normal member you just do what your told)
PvP<Pve in dedication.
Also a common mistake is that ''losing 10 games a week'' gets you easy epics, this is as far as i can see untrue, say you are at 1500 rating all time, this gets you 300 points a week for 10 games so say around 1.5 hour/week play.
That way it takes 1 month to get your first Item (gloves) and then you still have 1 Piece of BT pve gear in 1 month, you can't tell me you can't get 1 epic/month in pve unless you seriously fail.
Heck i got 6/8 tier 6 and bt equiv gear in a span of 3 weeks while being in bt+sw, so all-in-all pve gives faster gear then pvp.
Also Farming honor gear takes a total over ~300000 honor and 250 marks to get the full s2 set+Guardian gear (assuming you have the pr for it) being able to farm 2.5k honor/hour is fast so for a full set you would spend 120 hours in av to get a full pvp set which is about tk equivalent in pve dps, I have been like 100 hours in pve and i already have far better gear.
This is all i have to say about it, ask me questions or flame if you don't like the truth, i will try to answer all
