When I was level 33 I dueled a ranger in my legion for fun who was level 31 and although I did beat him, it took a long time. I was frozen or my movement was slowed most of the time so the only chance I had was to hope to get lucky and use binding word (which is useful at times, btw) to keep him from kiting and I was able to catch up to him to get one melee attack off on him. This repeated for probably 10 minutes, against a level 31 ranger. That includes the things of his that I resisted. Chanter is by noooo means OP. We have to really work for our kills in PvP, therefor so does anyone who wants to kill us.
Chanters are easymode for me and I definitely feel they need to be buffed. I've only had one problem with a chanter and that was a totally twinked out guy. Only reason I died was b/c a SM added in, but I never could kill the guy since I was lvl 28, he was lvl 25 and had over 3k hp, orange staff, etc.......Twinked.

Clerics are the ones I have issues with. Honestly, I think they might hit harder than Chanters which is incredibly unfair to those playing Chanters.

That doesn't really help, just saying I'm doing it wrong. A lot of players are still learning how to play their class, so even leveled, even geared clerics aren't ridiculous, but anyone with some pots and skill would be nearly impossible to take down. I'm kind of perplexed by how many clerics I've fought that don't use a pot.

Silence can be potted. That insta-heal thing is on a decently short CD. (Not sure exactly.) Flash of Recovery or something, that's the big thing that prevents me from killing them.

I really have to be strategic in killing clerics 1v1, and chances are I still won't if they use the consumables available to them which most don't. I have to "goad" them into thinking their health is ok and they can DPS me down, which surprisingly, I've found, can happen.

Then I have to hope everything lands, I don't get totally owned by the RoG on stunning/rupture, and that they don't use consumables.

Again, my opinion is that clerics should have to rely on their group to get their uber healing which they can do which I've already stated in a long paragraph that I'm not going to retype hehe. I'm fine with an focused healer being able to keep one guy up under heavy DPS, I'm not against that, but being able to do that, take hits, and then also dish out damage is OP.
