Any update on WvW Patch?
Lower your expectations a little bit.
Nope, no concrete details except for the culling post you already mentioned. There is a lot of pressure on Anet with this patch, hopefully they can deliver. I only care about WvWvW (and spvp to a lesser extent). And WvW is super boring right now. It is just mega zergs (50-60) roaming around the maps now wiping 20man groups and feeling good about themselves.
Beast mode
‘Culling fixed’.
WvW kill/defend exp to progress levels and unlock WvW only abilities like carry more supply, more damage while on siege, less damage taken from siege etc.
Some way to buy gear for medals or some new currency from WvW.
No orbs are not getting back yet.
No new mechanic like orb is introduced etc.
Same old ZvZ without culling so people will have to use more then vale bombs. Atleast we hope.

This. I expect the progression system to be mildly entertaining for a few weeks then the increased interest in WvW to die out dramatically until the next WvW focused update another 6 months from now.
I expect a “spectacular” one-time-only PvE event that will have nothing to do with WvW.
