A lot of people say &quot;I don't pvp&quot; which makes me sort of choke a little bit on my own sinus discharge. It's not like the difference between oysters and snails, and learning a few traits of the pvp elements of your character make you so much better at pve.

They're not really two completely different types of World of Warcraft, it's just sort of like opening that door a little farther and peering in.

Pvp is a little bit more fast paced, and it can wrack your nerves a bit more than even an hour of throwing yourself at Nightbane unsuccessfully. Alphatrion and Dreadwind both possess a good deal of high end pvp gear, and it's their equipment that works for dps in pve as well. It's very effective, and each of them are wearing things from pvp rewards that make most every piece in Karazhan a non-upgrade item for their spec styles.

Pvp gear for casters won't provide you a lot of mana regeneration, as a pvp fight is designed to be a bit shorter, rather than the endurance boss fights of pve (You'll also sort of notice your friends who pvp more than raid are a lot more used to blowing through all their mana a bit faster than you when they try to raid). The pvp gear for my caster's type loads me up on critical strike and stamina. As I gradually acquire pve type items with more mana regeneration, I try to switch them in on my Outfitter pveDps profile.

So if you're reading this, and you're like &quot;no, I don't like to pvp. It gives me hives.&quot; I challenge you to give it a good shot and see if you can get your mind changed.
