“Penalize”? Holy shit, the entitlement complex around here is getting ridiculous! They could have released the patch at 11:59PM on Sunday night and someone would complain that “losing out” on PVP tier ingots for that 1 minute was a “SLAP IN THE FACE”.
You did your PVP tiers on Monday, and got all the rewards that were available for your PVP tiers. You lost nothing. This coming Monday, you’ll do your PVP tiers again, and you’ll get all the rewards available then. You’ll lose nothing.
It’s a reward that yot’ll get every week, over and over, forever. Get over yourself.
