Pvp aimed gear and exotics is separate thing but as a general rule the above stands. Only thing pvp quest steps in a pve-oriented quest does is make pve people do the bare minimum in pvp to get it done which makes for a terrible experience for them because they generally dislike it and are not good at it either which only amplifies the effect. They get it done, hate every step of it and never touch pvp again. Until the next similar quest step comes along. Rinse and repeat. The only thing this achieves is a lot of angry folks in the forums in posts like this. And also them flooding in other pvp-related posts that try to focus on pvp feedback and improvement ideas, venting their frustation with unconstructive flame posts that downplay pvp as a whole. Reverse can be observed in comments below with the snarky pvp players commenting. The disgruntled back-and-forth would ideally need to stop when both sides have legitimate issues that aren't getting addressed. Pve and pvp are 2 separate activities with some overlap in their playerbase and a lot of no-overlap. Bungo should separate pve quests and pvp quests AND their rewards to their perspective activities. Not saying lock raid guns out of use from pvp or pvp pinnacles from pve. But do stop adding pvp steps to pve quests and avoid designing pvp guns that become pve meta. The latter part has seen improvement with the ditching pinnacle guns as a whole -design move. More design decisions in this general direction. Anything else is a disservice to the playerbase as a whole.
