How hard would it be for SE to disable pvp gear in pve instances and vice versa? Not at all. The fact there's almost no point in using pvp gear in any instance of pvp is 100% stupid and destroys a huge incentive to play pvp. I get that they want new people to try pvp, shit, I'm new to pvp. But for people who have worked hours on hours to get that gear for it now to mean almost nothing is ridiculous and huge slap in the face. There's not even ONE pvp mode that's not synced, very disappointing.
