This was an issue I had as well this expansion. I've started to much prefer mixed groups with variety (many shiny buttons, yay!), but I found it tremendously more difficult to get wins in arena, even at ridiculously low tanked MMR as a mixed group rather than as just 2x, 3x or 5x boomkin/dk). This got to the point where it was simply not worth it, especially with the current tier of conquest gear only being a 10 ilvl increase over honor gear.
Since PVE gear will be what matters now (as I doubt high-end instanced PVP will be any more doable than it is now), I'm fine doing quests, LFR, dungeons or even some normal mode attempts for my gear. Or who knows... Maybe I'll farm gold and just join mythic boost groups for gear. We'll see what is doable.
