They are (eventually) going to be giving us Psionic Melee... according to certain leaks on this past Beta anyway.

as in a new powerset so psi melee! cool.
There were some leaks recently (People linking unimplemented powers in beta, basically). It looks like they are adding quite a few new powersets at some point in the near future.

My **** is bleeding.
they need to delete some ...or invent some new dmg type
Those are both unlikely to ever happen, and with good reason.

Also, I have a question. How is the title of this thread accurate? There is no way to NOT PvE in this game.
So i'm wanting to get back into pvp.. I am wanting a Street Justice/Energy Aura stalker build.. Money is NO issue. PLEASE HELP.

There are plenty of ways for ME not to pve...but if you want it phrased more accurately, i avoid a lot of pve so I am not sure if the above character indicates a new powerset?

Yes Delete Powersets - mace, battle axe ...lol...seriously.
There are plenty of new dmg types to introduce with powersets, say Magical Damange...There is a whole zone of witches ya know. Create a spell caster powerset, expand the role of toxic damage and create a poison damage power set to match poison control...
Ice blast is one that can use reworking, change the special to stacking - recharge and even out the dmg with other blast sets, same goes for elec blast...as it stands right now thunderous blast does more dmg to the caster than the target...and it is a tier 9 primary!
They could introduce cosmic powered heroes and villians, and create a cosmic dmg...just saying we have had the same dmg types forever..

I dont get why you would want to have less variety of powers in a game though.
Wouldn't it just be easier for you not to use them, especially since you dont PvE?

They are working on a Rad Armor which does toxic damage...which makes me think a rad melee will be coming down the line as well...with what would probably be a mix of toxic and neg nrg damage.|

As to the deleting powersets... that would probably make quite a few people quit the game. Imagine if they chose to delete the powersets of your favorite toon... just saying.

Suggesting they delete the powersets that you don't play or find interesting is rather short-sighted and selfish. A change to even one power in a powerset has dramatic implications for how it plays, and removing an entire powerset from the game would either force players using that powerset to change to something else (radically changing the character) or the character would become literally unplayable overnight.
It's a terrible decision from a Dev perspective as it adds nothing to the game and would make many players angry - some of them angry enough to quit the game forever. Not a very well-thought-out suggestion to make as it honestly has no possible upside for anyone.

ridiculous to whom? The forum is called everything pvp. The last time I ran into a mace tank in pvp, the game was called "small village of helpful people"..lol as in never.
Pvp is a small part of the game... Deleting powersets because "no one" uses them in pvp would cause a backlash like never before seen. Since your question on the forum was regarding the game as a whole and not pvp.. you may want to remember that this is for the most part...a pve mmo.

So, the argument is that if a powerset isn't good in PvP they should just delete the powerset? Why? What possible purpose does that serve? If you don't want to use it in PvP, no one is making you, you can roll up an alt with different powersets you like better. There's just no upside to reducing options and you haven't pointed out one single good reason why any Dev should ever consider doing such a thing. This is probably one of the worst, most poorly-thought-out suggestions I've ever seen posted to these forums.
It has the potential to lose the Devs subscribers in large numbers and offers no benefit whatsoever to offset that risk. This has the be the most straightforward /jranger I've seen.
