Is it worth doing the 10 losses a week to get points these days?

If you can stand losing and not taking it too hard, it's worth it.

A head piece bought with Honor alone is 49,000 Honor
A head peice bought with Honor and Arena points is 12,000 honor and 350 arena points. You get about 340ish arena points a week, so you can see how it will accelerate the equipment you get.
