If Return of Reckoning is primarily a PvP focused game, why are the Powers weakening the PvP weapon rewards and strengthening PvE weapon rewards?

This is just the first pass at balancing tier 4 weapons, and imo its clear they haven't gotten it correct. They've given procs far higher importance than they have deserved, which has resulted in some of the PvE weapons which dont have procs looking much stronger than they previously did.
I also suspect that part of the recent nerfs are in preparation to future LotD updates, which are supposed to be coming this summer. Nerf existing weapons, then release new ones that we actually want to drive players to the new update.
I'd wait a bit and see what the devs say in the coming weeks. These weapon nerfs have only been live a couple of days, I'd expect them to collect data and opinions over a few weeks before deciding whether to admit a mistake or hold their ground.
