Q:

What are the benefits of playing in these modes? I haven’t tried either but I’ve seen that they both earn some sort of points though. Are these points spendable for something? Does anything you do in either of these modes benefit your character in PvE?

Feedback will be greatly appreciated

pve and pvp are pretty much seperated, they have their own lvls/ranks

in WvW its better to be lvl 80 (pve ) from what i understand though.

WvWvW is a potential alternative to levelling up if you enjoy hitting doors and having sub 5fps. It grants XP and level based loot while also providing a variety of gathering nodes, as there are also events and neutral mobs (i think more than 15types) it is possible to get the entire of your monthly and daily quests without ever going to PvE. On the rare occasion you actually get awarded a player kill you get a token for it which you can spend on higher level gear such as weapons or armor.

SPvP is for people that enjoy skill based PvP where everyone has a level playing field and you can jump right in without 2+weeks of grinding. It provides no benefits to anything outside of SPvP, other than bragging rights, while not taking anything from outside. The points you earn in this are for purchasing different looking gear, it provides no stat bonuses but does look amazing.

WvW, when done right, is the absolute best experience-gaining in the game. It depends on being with an organized group that’s taking objectives. If you’re running around solo, then you’re not going to get much, and just feed the zergs.

sPvP is fun and easy to advance. I did sPvP just while waiting for the queue to get into WvW, and gained a couple levels. It’s also a great (free) way to test out characters and builds at 80, as you come with a full set of gear, all the skills, and free trait respecs.
