the korea news about PvP gear is that you rather uninstall TERA now before you get too disappointed later on
1) Even worse, sometimes you wont get a single match even in happy hours. Especially in Shore hold BG.
2) Only EP and Skill XP perks works in BGs. Active guild buffs works only in OW and CU.
3) PvE is needed for gold gain coz enchanting PvP gear is huge sink of it. Second best jewels mats (HO) can be obtained with BC credits fairly easily.
4) I dont know how the new +15 gear will be compared to the curent +9 PvP. Kinda curious aswell.
When there are happy hours you can que BGs and do daily quests or Guardian quests to avoid slacking time and run dungs outside of it.
Before you que for Shore hold make sure you have Entropy jewel set and +6 PvP set or you will be food for the most of the folk there.
PvP is more dead and unbalanced than ever. You can't expect to come back because "it got better". Things never get better in TERA. It's a slow landslide every patch since 2014.
Another question.
What about Jewelry, Brooches, Relics, Halidoms, Belts, Masks?
Do they work in Shores and where to get them? Only from PvE?
Yes all of those are part of your gear in shore.
Brooch for PvE (Dracoloth/quatrefoil) works only when not upgraded to the latest tier. Some DPS classes uses em for burst but as soon as you upgrade it its no longer usable.
There is PvP brooch in BC merchant which gives you cleansing skill every 1m30sec on grade 5.
PvP lost its balance with reaper patch so no point in bragging about it now and yes PvP is way less active due to character progression being way faster in PvE.. sadly.

oh no the feature the game was built around allows you to level up the quickest, what a disaster
1. Indeed they are inactive, you're lucky if you get some pops during event time. With shore as stated it might not happen at all. Rarely some skyring might pop outside of event at the beginning/end of the leaderboard season or at completely random times.
2. EP skills work in every single battleground, they work everywhere. As for guild buffs unsure if the passive ones apply (suspect they do but I'd have to confirm) the actives buffs don't.
3. It is needed to obtain the ultimate jewelry (and maybe partners too) which is not accessible through pvp and obviously gives you stats difference that as a PvPer you will want.
Since battlegrounds are inactive (see 1.) good luck winning enough gold and mats to account for the enchanting costs as well.
4. Heard about stats change to existing PvP gear, yet nothing about new pvp gear.

Character progression does not mean just leveling up.
Your post isnt contributing to anything. Please add some facts instead of useless gibberish.
In the past you were able to progress fast enough by doing both PvE and PvP. Period.
