Comparing PvP vs Pve players, as to which is better, is kind of moot. There are good and bad players who participate strictly in both. The "good" players in each will have similiar abilities and skillsets, and the bads will still run around like headless chickens.



You're splitting hairs for the sake of continuing the argument. While I admire the attempt, you still fail at truthiness.



Just because you do not agree with me, does not mean that I am wrong or that I am not at least partially right. I know you have problems understanding that sometimes, but it will be ok.


Let's take this a step further, and say that if one can do both PvP and raiding at a high level, then they are more than likely (but not always) a "good" player. If someone is unable to do either without constantly pissing off whomever they are grouped with, then they are definitely bad

Most of us probably fall somewhere in the middle, whether we like to admit it or not.

I'll wait until your intelligence comes back to you before responding appropriately.

I've met players who are good at PvP and horrible at PvE. I've met players who are good at PvE and horrible at PvP. I've met players who were good at both and players who were horrible at both. Just because someone can PvP well doesn't mean they are automatically better at PvE than people who only PvE.

Good job, that is a slightly better insult than what my 8yr old can come up with. You can always come up with snarky remarks but rarely any meaningful replies whenever you do not agree with someone but yet have nothing constructive to add to a discussion. If you disagree, please at least pick apart my statements with some sort of logic,facts or even opinions instead of trying to personally insult me.

I understand there's always exceptions but a PvPer will always (99.999999999%) have the upper hand on a PvEer when it comes to reaction time and situational adaptation.

Sorry, PvE just doesn't compare to human opposition.

I happen to agree with that statement, assuming they are both similiarly experienced in their respective area of play, though that is just one part of the whole deal.

Reaction time and situational adaptation have nothing to do with your opponent being a person or an AI. It's entirely dependent on your bodies ability to do those things.

You play on a RPvE server, so nothing you say on the topic of PvP is valid.

Just fyi.

PvE = Reading guides on boss fights, watching videos on boss fights, buying pots for boss fights, killing boss... then repeat each and every week until next expansion.

PvP = Was my passion in WoW but it is pretty sad unless you enjoy arenas which I never have. I'm stuck walking over poorly geared players in BGs.

That was for Nuke...we can disagree all night about it Quazi. You would be arguing a wrong stance, but we could still argue about it all night.
