I'm seeing rumours of the next drop being delayed.
 
Whilst this is understandable, it also concerns me about the state of pvp. 
 
The last thing we need to make pvp fun again is the gear changes and perhaps the run Although i think the rune change can wait a little longer. 
 
Who else feels that we REALLY need this PVP gear balancing to make it so people can either 
a ) find out that gear isn't the issue and we are just bad
b ) finally have a chance to get better gear
 
I don't care which of these is correct but i would at least like to see for myself without having to constantly have my soul crushed each time I see heavily geared players. 
 
So please carbine I beg of you, if you really are delaying this patch, can we at least get pvp gear balancing as a hotfix as soon as possible? 
 
Please don't make me PVE :< 
 
Quick answers:
 
"Why should pvp be prioritized" - It shouldn't but pvp progression is suffering heavily
"You are bad get good" - Sure give me equal gear and I will practice my heart out
"l2p" Trying to but gear gaps prevent me
"gear isn't the problem it's you" - Well that's easy to say when you already have it
"the amount of entitlement is blabla" - I'm pleading not demanding
"get good" -  plis staph ur hurting my feels

I'm fine with them delaying as needed.
PvP is such a minor aspect of an MMORPG that its balance and/or progression is just inconsequential in the grand scheme. It's a mini-game, nothing more.

			It does seem like it would be a good idea to put in pieces of new content with weekly updates.the one with gadget slots was pretty well liked as an exampleLike the expert tech tree seems like it should be fairly sterile in terms of making the sky fallor whatever it is they're altering with pvp power/defense to try and level the field a bitor whatever it is that busted the heck out of spellslinger skills. This one seemed like it should have been an emergency ASAP type of deal to meAt the very least you would think it might minimize the number of concurrent horrible things which would at least be a step in the right direction

			Can I ask about the source of those rumors? It's a serious question, 'cause we still have 9 days until the end of the month and I didn't see any information about delay from Carbine. And it's not like Defile Drop is supposed to happen exactly at 1st of September. I'm wondering if I missed that or is it just another one of those internetz myths.

Of course it's not been official but my thread is in hope that it will be noticed and even acted upon. 
 
This and Attunement changes would be a huge boost to morale in game.

I hope this doesn't mean a delay of the Trigger Fingers bug. Because that should have been fixed day 1. I'm normally very understanding of Carbine, but that they don't seem to understand how much we need this fix yesterday (from what I understand it's already fixed internally).
 
Getting griped at in groups because I don't know when my interrupts are up is not fun.
 
Please Carbine, just hotfix it. I don't see how you can make it any worse than it is right now.

I know but PVP is grinding to a halt at 50! 
 
People are just hitting a brick wall and there's nothing we can do :( Not even premades make a difference anymore considering you get blown up still.

Well, no, just pointing it out.  Apparently the fixes will work.  The PTR PVP is apparently awesome, but not everyone knows about the PTR or that people are chilling on there.  Despite the bugs they're working out.
 
I think it's also worth mentioning that the PVP people put their money where their collective mouths are.  Gear gap was really the problem, so they're playing the Wildstar PVP with no gear gap.
 
Hopefully the PVE people have that kind of reaction to attunement changes.  Good on the PVPers, though.

I fight for both teams since i enjoy some pve but i do really like pvp most. 
 
I hope PVE attunement fixes peoples issues, HELL i really won't mind helping people get through attunement whilst we get the rest of our guild through it. 
It warms my heart to hear that pvp changes are working. I enjoy the competition and gear advantages are okay as long as it's not a significant amount. 
 
Really excited to see those changes now, and if they are working better then expected I will wait. 
 
Guna see if theres any youtube footage of PTR Pvp with the changes.

Question about PTR ...
 
If you download the PTR, is it a separate client or doe the client update and give you a selection on where to "log in" to? 0_0
 
One more question,
 
Is it level up from scratch or "make a test character of a particular level"?
