+1 In the other post about this, the guy says "playing 16 hours per day for 9 weeks(r13, 1000 hours) for items that are barely better than tier 1 loot from Molten Core seems absurd." I agree with that statement. Though I think you could end it at "Playing 16 hours per day for 9 weeks(r13, 1000 hours) for items" seems absurd. The pvp gear was never meant to be as good as raid gear for the time, Blizzard said this outright back in the day. Having to play 16 hours per day for 9 weeks for THE BEST items is just as absurd. People simply WOULDN'T play that much if the pvp gear wasn't as good, which it isn't supposed to be, thus it fixes two issues in one. Ranking becomes less no-life required and competitive, and people don't have way better gear then they are supposed to have. Obviously you recognize all this and the future servers will have pvp gear updated at the correct time. That is REALLY good for those servers. But what about OUR server... It's not too late to fix a horrible mistake! Mages have Naxx equivalent gear and AQ isn't even out yet. You think it's too late to fix it, but you have fixed things in the past after realizing things are wrong, like Viskag's stats for example. PvP gear being this good drastically changes the whole balance of the game.
