Actually, this will just encourage win trading and arena point selling even further.

On my server, the going rate for 850+ Arena points per week is 500g, and the guy (in trade!) is still taking better offers.

Arena is a joke, plain and simple. Sure there are many people who get their 2200+ ranking through good group builds and coordination, but who is to say that a player earned their gear, or just paid an IMBA team to carry them to the rating they needed?

The difference between Arena Welfare Epics and Battleground Welfare Epics is that the former can be aquired through gold instead of time.

The very fact that Blizzard puts a Rating on the shoulders, for no other reason then they know it has the greatest asthetic impact (ie. Epeen enlarging) on your armor set shows you the 'real' reason people want Gear.

To the 5 of you out there that really enjoy the competition and PvP aspect of the Arena, my sympathies; quit WoW and buy something that is actually PvP. The rest of WoWdom don't care, and only want to look cool in IF or UC.

Epic Fail Blizzard...truly Epic.
