Guild Wars 2

When watching the Ready Up today, I noticed that the white PvP weapons had stats. Is this for making up for the loss of jewels or did I just notice nothing special?
It would be a nice add-on though, considering that Amuletts only don’t give great diversity in stat combinations in PvP.

Those are PvE weapons.
After the new patch, PvP gear won’t exist anymore and players will use their PvE gear instead. The original stats and runes/sigils on the gear won’t have any effect (just the skin will remain) but you’ll still need the item itself (if you want a sPvP axe build, your character needs to carry a PvE axe), so they added a vendor selling the most basic PvE gear.

Alright, thanks for the clarification.
