The main focus was the city takeover for the most part, but you cant really get to that point without PvE to get gear and levels....
not saying pve isnt good to break up game play every now and then, but you can lvl from 1-40 doing only pvp and get great gear in both live and RoR.

PQ's were ok, not personally my favorite, but i still did them for item bags and the points... And the only part of PvE that was challenging were the dungeons and the entire LotD area (because it was bugged to all hell)...

I started playing war for the PvP back in the day, always was the main attraction for me. However I also really liked the immersion offered by pqs, following the story through the different tiers. I normally hate questing, but war actually has some really interesting questlines, and hilarious ones too, mostly thinking of the greensnin and dwarfs areas :p

tbh, you can contend with other players at level 1, as almost everyone just go and PvP straight out of character creation. Then, just buy PvP gear all the way with the money you make killing people.

That being said, you can PvE your way to level 40 and get decent gear (set of ruin, from T4 PQ). But there is no Raid, no dungeons, no nothing to appeal to PvE fan. But hey, you can kill mob, do quest, read the lore in them if that is your thing.

Dungeons are something we would like to do, but at the moment we're waiting for Londo to finish his instance tool, and that's at least two months away. If I had to come up with a rough roadmap based on what I had said, it would look something like this:
  1. T4 without forts, annihilator, RR45
    (shortly followed by)
  2. Forts, conqueror, RR55.
    (At this point we focus on designing a new RvR campaign system. Potentially plateau dvelopment on new content here for a while)
  3. New RvR campaign, RR65, maybe invader depending on how we could work it in
    (instance builder should be working by now, so the goal is fixing cities)
  4. City sieges, warlord gear, RR80
    (???)
  5. something cool, Soveriegn gear.
The instance tool should be done between phases 1 and 4. City sieges would be the priority at this point, followed by other dungeons. Phase 5 might just be merged with phase 4.
They're working on it.
