Arena Idea?

[thatone]

Well, I've heard a while ago that soon around the next patch, blizzard will be making "Gear ratings" (Im guessing its the item level that you see on all the database sites, I an example on the bottom of post.) But if this is so, maybe you could go get mid 60 instance gear and have it equipped as you queue up and enter. Then once you get in, put your real gear on, then eat drink cast heals for the 1 min prep time?

Maybe this will work till the next patch, dunno, maybe a PTR test?

Heres the example of Item level btw. (part in yellow)

I would like to mention that the example you gave is one that disappears once you leave Tempest Keep.
