just a little example:
i don't pvp much. me and a friend joined ab just for fun. i have no rank ambition. we were defeated 5-0 in about 3 minutes. it was humiliating.
the opponents were a premade (all from frostwolf eu, a well-known pvp server) in t3 gear. one warrior had corrupted ashbringer and the others were on a similar level. now, my gear is reasonably good too (see my sig), so the difference wasn't what did it. they were just completely organised and coordinated and they owned us so bad i had to laugh =)
Yes, I've seen this type of thing happen a lot. I've even seen (embarrassingly, been part of...) teams in Tier2/2.5/and some Tier 3, get absolutely humiliated by a very experienced PvP team in blues. Most raiding guilds will never admit when this happens or they'll make excuses as to how it wasn't their 'A' team or they only had like 3 members of said guild in the BG.
But believe me, it does happen and I have been a victim of this. It is VERY humbling as an and epiced out raider to be made into noobs by a coordinated PvP team in early PvP blues. You should just hear Vent of the said raiding guild getting wtfpwned, so frusterating, so humiliating, so much hate and anger..haha
So yes, that is very very true
Coordination > Skill > Gear
In reality, gear doesn't matter nearly as much as everyone thinks.
Obviously, if a skilled epixed out raiding guild fought a skilled PvP guild in blues, it would be not contest, but that aside from the point.
