Which do you think is more essential in PvP?

I am torn between equipping my Jade armor, or some other gear that totals up to over 50 damage.

It depends on the wizard, do you play more defensive or offencive, if you play offencive, then you should go for the resistance gear so that while you are attacking wizards, you don't get killed

Resistance seems more important in pvp. Although if you can have both, that's the better option.

Resistance, but in your case, I would say combination between jade gear and crafted/waterworks gear. I recommend the robe is jade, hat is crafted in avalon, boots is either and resist pet.

I, personally, would recommend a mix of gear. Avalon crafted boots (The one with 86 block and damage boost), Jade robe, and really damage focussed hat. I do not wear all jade gear for a reason. People wll just insult you and yell at you if you wear all jade gear.
