Latch

I loved almost everything about Nostalrius PvP, except for the glaring issue of the premature PvP gear stat upgrade. It was far too soon, and drastically altered Blizzard's itemization plan for the game. I understand that you spend countless hours acquiring this gear, but having spent significant time on retail vanilla WoW I can say with confidence that it was never Blizzard's intention to have the best gear in the game currently come from farming honor. PvP gear was meant to be a side objective. It breaks the game for the folk who like to be competitive in PvP but cannot devote the time to go to rank 12 or 13. Not to mention for many classes many of these items are best in slot for PvE as well. I've complained about this time and time again and finally you're recognizing this by upgrading the PvP gear at the proper patch on the Nost PvE server as well as the fresh start server. As someone who's played on Nostalrius from day one, I feel almost cheated. Don't get me wrong, this project is more than any of us deserve- but why should the original players be subject to play on a server with a huge mistake, while the players who joined the project later get the better server. A mistake that even now you recognize, could be fixed- but you choose not to. The players on Nostalrius PvE and the fresh server are already getting a better server that us- better progression timeline, more stable economy and proper loot tables from the start. At least give us on Nostalrius PvP this change to make the game the way Blizzard intended it and be at least partially on par with the other servers. I recognize that this suggestion will be unpopular for some, but for the vast majority- we'll be one step closer to the original game we all loved. Thanks.
