Red is EQ on hard mode because face it, PvE is EASY, mobs are dumb, predictable and there's not a single mob on P99 that hasn't been killed repeatedly for the last 15 years (save for Kerafyrm or Jaled Dar I suppose). I guess there still are PvE challenges such as soloing or duoing very challenging stuff, or basically killing stuff with very insufficient forces.
But it all boils down to bringing enough tankage / healage / pullage and outhealing the damage the mob deals while pounding on them.
PvP adds (potential) intelligence to your opponents, and makes the game a lot harder at times and (therefore) makes your achievements so much more satisfying.
