Is Tabula Rasa a persistent world or is it instance based? I'm thinking about buying it today and this is one of the things that is holding me back. I also know its not much of a pvp type game but how is the pvp?

Tabula Rasa is as much of a persistant world as any other MMO. It has instances, but it isn't instanced like Guild Wars.
The first two major areas are "instanced" .. kind of. The first place you start in is Wilderness and there's a Wilderness 1, Wilderness 2, Wilderness 3, etc. And you can teleport in and out of each one at your fancy. However, this is because of the population of those two major maps. A majority of the players right now are level 1-15 so that's why they have different spaces for each zone. However once you get out of Divide (the second area) then all the zones are just 1.
A little confusing, but it's a good system, plus you'll blow through 1-15, so then it just feels like a regular MMO in terms of instancing vs not. Hope this helps!
The instanced areas seems to work out pretty good. If you feel like you need help or want to be part of the army join a populated one. If you want to be Rambo and be outnumbered constantly join a light one.
