The rewards for PVP are tragically low. There is no reason for anyone but hardcore regulars to ever experiment with it. The best ways to earn gold in game are always through PVE.
We have a few money makers such as the Golden, tho the rewards there are of value maybe once every 3 or 4 months because half the gear is bound anyhow, and the unbound gear is usually not great. The gladiator runeboxes take literally forever to earn and sell. Good motifs never drop in PVP, just the same alliance ones.
More importantly the population is dead because of this. Notice how the servers are OVERLOADED when there are good rewards in PvP? IC is dead again today because the event is over, when it was population locked all of last week. There is no reason for any players to go there and PvP.
All dungeon and trial gear should be available in the same manner that overworld gear boxes can be bought with AP, but at a much higher cost. Maybe in the way you can get white gold tower gear with Key Fragments?
