The upcoming changes outlined have good and bad qualities (which i wont address since the community has amply covered the concerns). That being said it should be delayed until the real issue can be addressed. For ideas on said issue of pvp and pve separation could be as follows. As of now when you enter sPVP you get a whole new trait bar, gear, and some items are different such as traveler runes( spvp and pve variants have different stats), that being said why cant that “new” skill bar you get have the word PVP affix in the title, Then you can simple nerf/buff PVP traits/skills without having PVE affected in it, and visa-versa with nerf/buffs to PVE skills/traits. As far as WvW if it too had the PVP affix on skills since you are very much doing Player vs Player, then it too would address the problems that caused these nerfs in the patch in the first place. I am not however saying to rework WvW, what i am saying is, simple add PVP affix to skills/traits in PVP situations and patch those two different entities. The long you wait to separate the two, then the more uproar/heartache/work will occur when the changes finally take place. In Guild Wars 1 it took a little while to separate pvp and pve but when that occurred it brought the game to the next level and it needs to happen here especially if A-net is trying to get into E sports. PVP and PVE are two different beasts, Treat them as such.
