Raiding gear should NOT = Arena gear

Raiding: All you have to do is show up and push a couple buttons while sitting on your pasty arse for a couple hours. You don't even have to be good or understand your class and other classes. You're just riding the coat tails of other people and watching American Idol season 5 while you clear trash in farmed content.

Arena: You have to be extremely focused and you MUST have amazing understanding of the game and exceptional communication and teamwork, match after match after match to get your gear.

Arena is more effort, and the gear should reflect that. Don't give me crap about how raiding is hard, skill=gear, that should be that, THAT is fair.

I get the irony being portrayed in this post versus the other one, and I have to admit I also take some small pleasure in seeing these accusations thrown around, because... they're ridiculous.

If you're in the arena, and raiding is so much easier, then go raid.

If you're a raider, and the arena is so much easier, then go do arenas.

You're not actually concerned that someone else is getting something easier than you, because you would go do it and wouldn't look back. You're either unable or unwilling to switch to what you perceive is the easier route, and want what you're invested in or willing to do made easier based on what you perceive matches the effort invested in the other.

It goes either way, posts pop up with both viewpoints. Arenas are so easy, you just sleep your way to epics, or raiding is so easy, you just sleep your way to epics. If it's all just so easy then why don't you take the easier route? The grass is always greener.
