Legendary warlord pvp is unbalanced

So apparently w101 thinks legendary warlord wizards are so good that we can fight and defeat level 90 wizards every time. Well no you thought wrong. I got in a match three times with a promethean storm wizard. He went first... he had more health than me... and I don't even have good gear at the moment so every attack he casted did minimum 1000 damage. I was actually starting to like w101 pvp. But this has gotten too out of hand. Now don't take it the wrong way as I definitely do defeat some level 90 wizards that I encounter. But this is just too unbalanced I mean a level 68 fighting a level 90 and its considered "balanced" or "fair". Whats fair about someone with twice as much resist a quarter more health than me and damage that can own me in one hit with a minimum six pip spell. I know its pvp and I should deal with it but at least change the max level to 78 or 85 or something like that. Just because someone is a warlord doesn't mean they have godlike abilities and can destroy anyone. Thanks for reading

Kingsisle, and many privates, find this fair because warlords rank up because they are skilled. Skill can only take warlords so far. Beyond a certain point, it gets near impossible to keep a good record going, because matches are won and lost because of luck. Level 90-95 players don't need skill to win. They can just spam criticals to win. Sadly, this is what pvp has become. My level 50 warlord battles level 95s constantly...Just because I'm at over 2000 rank doesn't mean I can beat people with 4 times my critical, twice my health, and shrike. Kingsisle hasn't put a level cap in pvp yet; it is very unfair, and should be changed. The fairest way to do it would probably be to put a 25 level cap in either direction of the players you can battle, probably, or around there. It could be lower at lower ranks, and increase to 20-30 at higher ranks.
