We don't really know any details yet, but to me it sounds like they are turning the Western Ice Shelf into a sort of hybrid daily/PvP area.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-18572355056297395482013-01-21T13:59:17.110+00:002013-01-21T13:59:17.110+00:00Nice blog!

I'm still hoping to go there one day and see what it's like, but doesn't seem like doing that now is going to be of any use. I hope there is indeed going to be some sort of event on Ilum, then I'll surely give it a try.Ravanelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447777640056476366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-69101111323804777382013-01-15T00:26:12.512+00:002013-01-15T00:26:12.512+00:00Jeff Hickman mentioned it in State of the Game #2,...Jeff Hickman mentioned it in <a href="http://www.swtor.com/info/news/blog/20130102" rel="nofollow">State of the Game #2</a>, but all he said was: "something big is coming to the Western Ice Shelf, but it’s quite a departure from what was there before. As for pure Open World PvP… well, that’s a more difficult proposition. We are dedicated to providing excellent PvP experiences to our players, but we intend to focus our energy on PvP Seasons and new Warzones."Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-5368286881118450572013-01-14T17:53:25.567+00:002013-01-14T17:53:25.567+00:00There was a hint that comign soon woudl be a kick ...There was a hint that comign soon woudl be a kick start for world pvp and ilum but not necessarily what we might expect!!

To be honest you're more likely to run into some world PvP action in the Black Hole or Section X, where things are busy and both factions are constantly crossing paths.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-1432914282511909352013-01-13T22:18:43.764+00:002013-01-13T22:18:43.764+00:00Definitely!
