Arena Has Killed the Early Wipe [Discussion]

Basically the title, but everyone that kills me so far have been lvl 15+ (mostly) unheard addition owners, with access to the flee, attachments, good ammo, etc. All the while I'm just trying to survive a damn raid. This is killing the early wipe, it's no longer people struggling for the first week or 2 week, it's just play arena for a day, and have an immediate advantage over everyone else who doesn't have Unheard edition.
