I never thought I'd make a thread here, or even consider PVP a section of the game I would touch, but a friend who just hit level 60 wanted me to go with her to try out the PVP modes.

So... I look at the PVP section of my profile, for curiousity, and send out the roflcopters: I have 0 points to allocate into PVP abilities. Yay.

Of course she's going to be in a similar boat, so, while we're together in a sinking ship, just how do we go about getting PVP levels to start using abilities and not be completely helpless, and where? I'm thinking Frontlines just so we can have a smaller chance of being spotted for kicking, but is there another way I'm not thinking of?

For what it's worth I use SMN and BRD for PvE, and she mains BRD but is also leveling AST. While I'm used to playing tanks and healers to help queue times in PVE, should I do so here? I'm... simply put, way out of my comfort zone with this, but I really don't want to leave my friend to fend for herself.
