You're foolish if you don't think PvP will affect PvE in any way. Balancing cooldown timers or effective ranges for skills would have to be considered for both PvP and PvE. However, how much damage/effect a skill or spell has on a player compared to a mob can be seperated so your 2k damage Doom Spikes on Ifrit could at best do 500 on a player.
