People need to consider that the #1 guild is going to be winning the majority of their PVP due to a numbers and gear advantage. Having resist gear lootable means that for every diamond ring taken from the #1, they're taking 5 more from the casuals who took a month to acquire that ring.
The solution is to make resist gear the unlootable items. Make all dragon loots and uber gear (fungi, manastone, VP gear included), even no-drops, lootable by classes that can use them. One container is safe, so you can carry a few of your most precious items safe.
If you want to use your Frozen Zweihander in PVP, you accept the risk of losing it should a Pal/SK/War/Rng get the killshot.
This protects the casual player's resist gear, so he can compete with the 200+ wizards and druid gankers guaranteed to infest T99, but allows those high dollar VP and Kunark loots to disperse throughout the community. Yes, even VP weapons should be lootable. Better have a backup weapon in the bank, or in your safe container.
