I just got a 2.2 max 2300 PH with a LOW condition of 94/152
What will happen to it when the CU comes out? Will they give me a new weapon more balanced with new stats and conditoin but more balanced? Waste can ya get me an answer?

unfortunately the NDA will bar him from saying anything - the nda does not allow for even hints or generalilities to be discussed

I wouldn't worry about it by the time the CU goes to beta that rifle will be long used up.

They won't delete it, if that's what you're worried about. It will still be a lot stronger than a standard one most probably.

I was wondering if the condition will be repaired if/when they give me a new weapon when the CU comes.

when updates occur they usually are always bad for items. And if this is a total revamp like they say of the fighting sytem, i would put my neck out on the line that "Uber Powerful Items" will be nerfed, even if they were working as intended. Keep in mind that its a whole new system of combat, therefore a whole revamp of things that existed in the previous sysem.
they may introduce a system like when they nerfed the CH, and have an NPC that lets you trade in old weapons for ones that work in the new system.
Ofcourse this is complete speculation.
After patch 9, i had perfectly good armor go to 0/0 the day after the patch.

When publish 9 went live and all sabers had to be taken apart, all crystals within sabers became damage crystals. All crystals outside of sabers became color crystals. Well, the problem is that the tunes were uncharacteristically bad. I had a friend who had placed 20 very nice krayt pearls into 4 different 5th gen sabers. All of those remained premium krayt pearls when deconstructed, but he didn't get a single decent tune out of them, by which I mean anything near -9 force +50 dmg. If you loot premiums and tune them, you should get -9 force +50 damage between 1/3 and 1/5 of the time.
He lost about 50 million credits in pearls that day, and plenty more from those that he had looted himself.
That should give you an idea of what's going to happen to exceptional weapons.
