PVP needs to be meaningful with repercussions so this could be a step in the right direction. If you are a bad PVPer, should you get the same rewards as good PVPers?
Step out of your comfort zone please and accept that you are in an AVA based MMO.

What you don't get is that many players don't want to be a PvPer AT ALL, good or bad. PvEers are going to be attracted to IC by the gear and the TV stones, but it's going to be a miserable experience trying to have a nice night grinding while gankers are harassing you constantly and stealing your stuff.
By the way, I think your 50/50 math is wishful thinking. I highly suspect that even most PvP players are below average at PvP. Those guys on YouTube who make 100K AP/hour with their god-like skillz are pulling the average way up, but I do not believe they are representative of most PvP players. If IC is anything like the rest of Cyrodiil, the only guys profiting will be a handful of elite gankers and some well organized zerg-guilds.
If your group is bigger than 6 members gain 75% damage reduction.

It's very similar to the poor design decision of making forced solo PvE the only realistic way to get to the end game content. That's the only complaint, the fact that there is no option for earning the new end game gear without joining one of these anti-social gang style PvP groups that only reward sociopaths with anger issues.
I swear if the carebears are getting ZOS to tear this great feature down again there is truly no hope for this game as an MMO.
Who gave you the idea that you are entitled to Tel Var stones? You lose absolutely nothing by not collecting them yourself.
Want VR16 gear? Collect loot from scaled group dungeons, craft it yourself or buy it with gold.
Want the specific new PvP gear from Tel Var vendors? Buy them from players with gold.
There are ways for you around the Tel Var system if you are such a delicate flower that you can't bear actually losing something once in a while. For everybody else, it actually makes good game design.

PVE'rs REQUIRE PVP'rs effort to be TOP PLAYERS in this game and this is how you guys say tank you to us?
And how do you explain the game story without the ava? but tank you for notice that there is already 20 PVE zones and 1 PVP zone... let our update be and just buy from us the gear as you are already doing.

This is so frelling sad I am shocked to watch them drool over it..
I had really hoped this would be player friendly but it isn't - this is all about feeding sad trolls...

If it's a PvP zone only, then why is all this juicy PvE content being stuffed inside of it? They should have divided the IC into two sections, one PvP space that functions like the rest of Cyrodiil, and one PvE space that has all the goodies in it that PvEers want to grind WITHOUT being robbed.

But it is right? PvE dungeons that drop boxes of tv stones that you can teleport in and out with. The other way is pvping and looting from each other.

Because all PvPers have been asking for is "more Cyrodiil", right?...
And every PvE content they add is supposed to be just another grind with little to no innovation?
No thank you, as both PvPer & a PvEr, I'm happy with what they're doing with Imperial City and quite frankly a simple "more Cyrodiil" or "more grind" with zero risk/reward would have had me quit the game within the next month or so.
Be happy that you also get two brand new, 100% PvE group instances with this DLC & stop QQing.

The funny thing is, enough people voted with their wallet: "don't like it => leave" that ESO is down to B2P.
Let's keep voting until we go the Warhammer way and one day we get the "Game's shutting down, thanks for the fish" message.
- Please make the gear you can buy with Tel Var stones tradable so people who can't stand any kind of PvP (I am not one of them) have a chance to get these items (and likewise, make rare items only found in PvE tradable) unless the sets have bonuses that are really only useful in the area of the game where you found them (if a set found only in the Imperial City gives you a chance to find more Tel Var stones then I don't mind if it's bound, but sets that are good in PvE as well should really be tradable!).

I'm NOT robbing you I EARN MY REWARD for killing you, since i usually dont kill mobs till dawn in order to get the loot i want,
i will camper your death body and wait for your pve friends.
I wish sometimes that Valkin Skoria had the possibilities to come in the forums, complaining about the fact that someone has looted his head 100 times a day.
And on a side note WE PLAY CYRODILL already why we should have MORE CYRODILL again?
