I've played an absolute fuckton of MMOs and experimented with PvP servers on most of them that offered it. However, in full transparency, I don't have a tremendous amount of experience with PvP end-game for more than a handful of MMOs.
Regardless, in my experience, open PvP in MMOs has ALWAYS been trash and (for me) it has never been a matter of "getting gud."
As it has already been said, the overwhelming majority of troglodytes drawn to open PvP are not looking for anything other than an angle to exploit, an overwhelming advantage, easy loot/advancement, or to simply grief other people. The last element has become orders of magnitude more prominent because there are a legion of windowlickers trying to get some 'funny' clip to post on Tik Tok.
Having to constantly worry about some faggot ganking you while you're already out in the world engaging with the content doesn't make the game any more fun or interesting. Dying to mobs/NPCs can be frustrating but it's never made me angry because it's simply doing what it was programmed to do, but a human making the choice to fuck you over because it was 'funny' is the kind of thing that would land me in prison if we were playing the game in the same room.
