The days of easy upgrades to top-shelf gear are gone, what we're left with, is the choice of grinding endlessly on the treadmill for PWE's amusement, or figuring out how to make our own fun with the scraps they've overlooked.

Alternately, maybe someone's got some data on Fleetstore gear-there's a grind there, too, but at least you're doing it in concert with the people you're likely to be teaming with in PvP...
