The PvE server will follow the timeline that the original PvP server followed; this means the server will run with different item stats than those currently available on the PvP server for a time. The WDB folder is where you store the stats of items as they exist on the server. When you have a WDB folder already, the game doesn't give you a new one so if you transfer from the PvP server to the PvE one, you will see incorrect item stats. If you don't have a WDB folder, the server will create a new one for you.
Something to note, having the server create you a new WDB folder does add strain to the server in general, so you shouldn't clear it every time you log-in.
Long story short: It's better for everyone that players create 2 different installations.
