There is no useful gear in normal 5 mans bar few oddities that help on certain PvE encounters (like Soul Preserver). The only thing that helps is to do quests that give faction rep, such as quests around Wyrmrest Temple in Dragonblight, Sons of Hodir starter chain in Storm Peaks or most quests in Icecrown. Faction reps give one entry level PvE epic at revered.
You can jump straight into PvP, but be prepared to get your ass handed to you more often than not in Arena. Still, you'll quickly get the points to buy unrated items. You can craft several (BoE) blue pieces with resilience, though almost nobody wears them. Most people just grind out Wintergrasp and battlegrounds.
