Let me tell you a tail.
After a while into module 7 i wanted to try out domination PvP in Neverwinter again. In the past i got a medicore score which was reset and the last two leagues i didn't really participate in it. So my score was the lowest of them all, i was literally the last spot on the PvP Scoreboard, because after the last two reset i still didn't play PvP:
So i thought: "Hm, i could try out a bit PvP. It is not the best in Neverwinter and maybe a bit unbalanced and propably i will lose but maybe... MAYBE i get a decent match." So i queued and what i was set against was the possible worst outcome you can imagine.
I was set against one CW with 4,222 ilvl from Daybreakexpress (Fully equipped, PvP Overload Enchantments slotted, etc. but he said he isn't doing PvP often. He was on Page 73 of 673). Another one was a TR with 3,300 ilvl which also inherits the PvP title Grandmaster of Gladiators but was on page 246 of 673. The next was a Paladin, sorry i can't tell his ilvl because after the match i couldn't inspect him anymore because he went offline but he is currently on page 20 of 673. One of the best was another TR from the Greycloaks with an ilvl over 4,000 (Transcendent Negotation Enchantment and Transcendent Terror Enchantment. The only "weak" person in this random team was a cleric with 2,900 ilvl and said from himself he only recently got back to neverwinter. He was on page 101 of 673. So even if his gear wasn't that great he is a really good player and to kill clerics in a fight is really hard.
My team wasn't bad either we had a GWF with transcendent feytouched enchantment and transcendent negotation, rank 10 and proper PvP gear (which was the best in the scoreboard on our match). We also had another TR with around 3,000 itemlevel, a cleric which i couldn't inspect and a GF that left.
After the first clash in which we was obliterated by the enemy team (seriously, no chance) one left and our spirit was broken. We tried to fight but after another clash that lasted a bit longer but still we where obliterated and lost in the fastest way possible without a chance to win the match.
The whole match was a mess. I am myself has not a low itemlevel either with around 3,200 but it was my first match after over 3 month and i only wore my old PvP armor and had nothing shiny like a negotation enchantment or AP sucking overload enchantments like the other in the same match.

Imo they should just salvage the entire leaderboard cus its never worked as good as they hoped. They should instead get brackets that u climb if u win and down if u lose. This mean however that it will take longer to que but more people would return to pvp if the matches were fair and fun and not 4.2222 vs 1800 ILs.
