To any of you experienced PVPers out there...I need help. I am terrible at PvP and would appreciate any tips. Also, I am looking for some people to group with. PS4/AD/NA/Stamina NB

Be Mobile, Agile and Hostile.

That's all I have got, but its good advice for any part of the game.

best thing I can say is be aware of your surroundings.. you cant fight what you cant see that being said 3rd person view all the way haha

Go to Blackwaterblade if you are under VR. You frankly, dont have the skill points to have a chance to keep up with people who have 200 plus skill points and passives to pull from, much less the Champion Points.

Join a pvp guild, it will be much easier to find people for pvp.

I'm not too great at PVP but i'm not horrible. Here're some things i've learned lately.

Mitigate. Shields, wards etc.
Manage your resources.
Crafted Armor and weapon sets help.
Don't sprint with your horse. With ZERO stamina on your mount you'll get knocked off, stunned and lose half the battle before your first swing.
3rd person view.
Have a potion equipped to your hotkey.
Know how to choose your battles. There's no glory in getting wiped by a zerg. Pick off the stragglers.
Block!

That's my two cents. Good luck on the Battlefield.

I am not exactly good but my advice: have detect potions or revealing magelight to avoid sneak attacks, sneak always when near roads bridges ect, and always ready something to remove DOT effects from those glitched cold fire siege weapons (currently the cloak morph to do that is broken).

Most important thing in PvP is knowing when to engage and when to retreat

Everything Crusty Mudcrab posted is good advice, but the big thing that helped me was a proper PvP build. Google PvP builds for your favorite class and then watch some videos of how it's used and from that, create your own version to hopefully adjust to your play style.

A couple months ago, I was a TERRIBLE PvP player (won or survived maybe 2% of the fights I was in) and now I'm decent, not great, but decent. My particular toon does effective amounts of damage, but more importantly for me, is hard to kill, so I would estimate the outcomes of my PvP fights fitting into the following buckets:

I win the fight (25%)
It becomes a straight up stand off (with one enemy where the fight goes on long enough we both get bored and leave)(10%)
I fight, but then realize I cannot win and run (25%)
I straight up run for my life and survive (enemy zerg). (20%)
I get crushed like a bug (20%)

It's not a great win percentage, but the survival percentage is very high, which means I don't lose Tel Var stones, I don't give the enemy AP and in some situations, I'm able to come back and rez allies, so whatever we're trying to accomplish isn't always a lost cause.
