So I'm not too sure why you are worried about top gear being purchasable through honor, though there is a chance that some rewards for Arena success will be helpful outside the Arena. Ashes is not looking to create a seperate PvP minigame inside the game, things will be connected. So be prepared to see some kind of benefit coming to successful gladiators, though maybe not in the form of gear.

In some games, from a specific vendor, you can buy good PvP gear with PvP rewards. And PvP rewards can be farmed very effectively in the arena. I don't like that.
