1.1 Causes Ilum PvP Exploit

With 1.1 going live today, some issues came along with it. One of the biggest is an exploit in Ilum World PvP, where players are gaining much larger amounts of Valor than they should be and are able to get the best available PvP gear very quickly. This is being done by turret farming, which are giving out huge amounts of Valor and respawning very quickly. BioWare has recognized that the issue exists and is working on investigating a fix for it. They have posted a brief response so far, but are working on their official response still. We will post updates as this issue develops.
