Yeah, people have been pointing this out since I13 went into closed beta in October of last year. My guess is nothing will change.

"One day we all may see each other elsewhere. In Tyria, in Azeroth. We may pass each other and never know it. And that's sad. But if nothing else, we'll still have Rhode Island."

I've searched for Zone Guides, finding only outdated information here on the forum.
But what I really find difficult, is that the game itself doesn't explain much about PVP. For example, I can go to Reclue's Victory, talk to the NPCs, and they'll tell me that the goal is to capture the pillboxes, but no where did I learn in the game, that purple IOs were part of drop system.
In another thread, someone mentioned getting a PVP IO drop. This was news to me, until now.
A slight complaint: PVP needs to be more informative. Although I knew about diminishing returns (etc), almost every new face that walks in has no idea what popping 3 break frees doesn't help. Or why slotting and buying more defense powers doesn't greatly help. And so on.
It just seems that PVP is not only a science to master, but becoming a science to comprehend. The reason this occurs is because (new) people think their powers are going to work in PVP as good as they work in PVE.
