Guild Wars 2

I’m a complete noob when it comes to pvp. So, does gear matter in PVP at all?

Nope, it’s purely cosmetical. On the other hand you have to equip items for the Chest, leg and Boot slots for max armor rating – these can be lvl 1 white items too without stat, you just have to have something in those slots.

There is a PvP build menu on the middle top of your screen while in the Heart of the Mists, you can set your stats there in form of an amulet, along with runes, sigils etc.
