Mages damage is hardly "overpowered in PVP". Its only "comparable" really considering that pillars provide 100% mitigation. Its certainly nothing that can take out a Resto anything.

The reason Mages have become usable in PVP is a metagame one, not a power one. The teams that would have normally relied on a Warlock can no longer do so because Melee scaling has pushed Warlocks almost completely out of the Arena, and Mages are pretty good against melee classes. Thus Mages can actually compete, but that isn't the same as being overpowered, its having a niche in an overall warped environment.
