Erm, your entire first paragraph is about outgearing. But I agree the weapons make a huge difference at lower ratings, and that people with shoulders should _probably_ not be bellow 1.9k-ish.
Skill is a tougher thing though, because realisticly, a fresh 70 won't be as skilled as someone who's been dueling and world PvPing before it even gave rewards. Gear helps so much, and it can be really annoying when you fight rerollers (although the odds of running into them are fairly small if you play at the right time, or so I found), but I still think personal skill/expirience is what prevents you from getting higher, all the outside factors only to a lesser extent.
Btw, if you're rerolling, it's probably best to try to get honour/mark/point capped before the next season even if that means not buying stuff in the current season. Starting the next being able to buy as many new pieces as the gladiators helps more than being primarilly covered in 4 months ago, granted that you feel secure about atleast hitting the requirements for the early S4 stuff.
