T1 PvP Fists weren't updated with PvP power/upgrade

Go ahead, go to the T1 Conquest Point vendor, and take a look at the PvP power on the 1H Axes/Maces/Swords, and then on the Fist weapons. The Fists actually have half the PvP power now that they stealth buffed the PvP power on the other weapons.

Moreover, if you currently have the fist weapons, you'll find that you aren't even able to upgrade them with conquest points! This doesn't happen to any of the other weapon categories, and only to the T1 fist weapons, so it looks like that once again, they forgot fist weapons! :/

Please, if you can, report this issue in game and let's keep this thread up so people who decided to go with the fist weapons don't remain gimped for the rest of season or something because Blizzard doesn't seem to remember that Fist weapons even exist anymore.

Thanks for your report on fist weapons not having the appropriate amount of PvP power. We are aware of this issue already and are actively investigating the matter. :)

Nothing to investigate, you only need to look at the facts, and the facts are that the fist weapons, again, have been overlooked. Isn't it just awesome to have chosen both the Shaman class AND fist weapons on a day like this?

They have not been overlooked, the PvP power adjustments simply did not apply to them and we are investigating as to why and sorting out a resolution. It is not a simple matter of flipping a switch, but we are working to have the correct amount of PvP power on fist weapons as soon as possible.

Indeed, the PvP power on the fist weapons has been hotfixed to match other weapons - however, people who bought the weapons before today are still unable to upgrade them.

We have now hotfixed the the PvP power on fist weapons as you said, however being unable to upgrade fist weapons purchased before 5.1 is unrelated and as such requires some additional investigation to solve. We are still looking into this and hope to have it sorted out as soon as possible :)

Good that it's acknowledged, got any kind of ETA (today, tomorrow, next patch, the next expansion)? It seems the ones that are on the vendors are upgradeable but not the ones that players have already bought.
Indeed, it is only the ones bought before patch 5.1 that cannot be upgraded and this is what we are looking into. Unfortunately we cannot provide any ETA at this time, but do hope to get this sorted out quickly.
