It's my opinion everyone should participate in at least one PvP event. For the noobs with "if I opt in, can I still gather PvE items?" The answer is yes. Although Sadly the EB doesn't hit back. For all those participating in either segment, best of luck to all of you as for me, I'll be farming my PvP targets and and donating loose change to the Bronze Bar shop Aiming for Decent rewards.
I won't be optin In because the PvP event lasts too long for grinding for gear and idk it gets tediouse go me
