The complaints just stem from the fact the system is changing now in the 4th season where things have been set in motion already for 2-3 seasons past.

S4 items will be more like Arena gear should've been from the start - low skilled players who never enter arena seriously or cannot get 1700 rating do not deserve the gear of the currently highest level, period.
Catch-up from the bunking down of seasons will work like the Badge gear being available from a PvE context.

The blunt fact is people who just idle around in BGs do not need S4 level items to do so, they are hardly going to be majorly outgeared when you consider only the elite of PvP will have the S4 gear anyway in any major amount that matters - of which they will never meet anyway.

To those who complain about PR for Honor gear - remember the groups are PvE and PvP, Arena and BGs are part of the same system not seperate entities.
If you still insist on complaining then remember your loot is completly controllable, you have no randomness involved which automatically offsets anything you can cry about from it.

Im glad they are finally doing something about the team changes, but as my BG is rather crap (4 mediocre servers only) im going to feel sorry for the cream of the PvP crop here when it comes to getting high rating in any major sence.
These changes are not something we can just math out and predict the outcome as they have larger implications which we cant really estimate well.

Who knows it may well be that we will see only the skilled PvPers with the "Brutal Gladiator's Apolyon" instead of the assorted time=reward players who tended to have the majority of top level gear in the previous seasons (which will ofset my qualms about the PvP system as it stands currently mostly).
