While it must be frustrating, I gotta say its better then a flat system like other games use. I've done the pvp grind in both vanilla and later wow and aion. Aion was had it right, if you want something, work for it. Vanilla was insane, it wasn't fair by any means, basically play more and always preset. The system here is a traditional RNG, nothing wrong with it, its actually what most MMO's use. Play any non-western MMO, max lvl in it and then play a western MMO, you will never complain again about any sort of grind or RNG.
The fact that you can even reach max level as fast as what people are doing is sort of upsetting, let alone the fact that the end game gear (currently) is going out at such a high rate of speed. Now, if the game had been out for 3-4 months sure, but 1-2 weeks? Come on now. Aion took 1.5 months for me to buy the best pvp weapon.
