I'd think it's a ways out personally, at the very least there will be more teasers and a hint to induce a push to 61 4x elixir style. So be patient and take your time with your runs, there are plenty of shields for everyone.
Sorry you feel that way but, it's an xp grinding type of game so players need some incentive to keep doing the same things over and over. I do agree that perhaps some items shouldn't be allowed in pvp, but you have to think about the potential work that may have to go into that on the devs side... perhaps it's just too tough since there is really no other application that take advantage of nuking an item from existence.
