I'd still much prefer an arena system where a player zones in with a full set of S4 gear, regardless of whether they're using greens/blues in the real world.

They can then buy that S4 gear with arena points, for use in world PvP, battlegrounds, or even PvE.

^ This way, arenas are based purely on skill, not about gear, and such a change would hardly break immersion from a fantasy world since arenas would typically deck out their gladiators in gear before they engage.

edit - furthermore, it would allow Blizzard to focus more on improving their world PvP and battlegrounds. As is, battlegrounds are merely a means to an end -- a way to gear up for arenas. With the above suggested change, the roles would be reversed. Arenas would become the means to gear up your character for world PvP.
