Do you guys even try anymore? Now I'm glad the gear is not pink with asteroids orbiting the shoulders, but I mean... a little more "flavor" added to the armors wouldn't hurt.

The look of the sets will improve as the seasons continue. If we started the first sets of PvP gear with asteroids orbiting the shoulders, in a couple seasons you'd be wearing Thrall on your head.

Q u o t e:

Aren't the sets supposed to be equivalent to PVE? Why don't they have the same amount of effort of design put into them?

Under the current design philosophy, the idea is that in PvE you're killing very rare and challenging creatures of Azeroth, while in PvP you're receiving gear from the crafters (so to speak) of your faction to get you battle-ready. Chances are you're going to be given the gear that'll get the job done rather than the gear that has to be constructed entirely out of the nipples of a 7,000 year-old dragon.
