Upgrading PVP Gear System is flawed?

PVP War Mode and World PvP
1

Maybe I’m misunderstanding something here but why do I have to grind PVE content so I can upgrade my Conquest\War Mode PVP Gear?

I want to PVP and all the time I would have to spend doing PVE content is just arbitrary… Why do I have to grind content I don’t want to do just to spend what little time I have left doing the content I want to?

There should be no reason I can’t earn crests through PVP or buy crests with Honor, or better yet, just get rid of the crest requirement.

Arbitrarily making me doing content I don’t want is a waste of time and money.

Thank you

If all you want to do is pvp, then there’s no reason to upgrade the gear.

Then why is it upgradable?

You don’t need to upgrade your PvP gear if you just want to PvP. The upgrades only affect the gear’s base PvE ilvl, not the PvP ilvl. If you hover over the tooltip you’ll notice the gear states that it’s ilvl is increased to 636/639 (WM/Conq) in PvP content.

It’ll always be that highest ilvl when you engage in PvP. The upgrades simply make the gear stronger in PvE, not for PvP.
