I think that is also another factor though. On IN, explosion hit about like an FS when you were naked, and it used half the mana. But again, that wouldnt have any effect here because of the easy access to scrolls. On IN1, you used explosion against naked / low AR people so you wouldnt waste precious FS scrolls. Here, its like "why even both using anything but FS scrolls when I carry thirty at a time, and they do more damage while using less mana?"
I was going to mention this as well. We faced the same problem on INR for a short period of time... where everyone was running around naked ganking people. All this means is that spells like EB and Explosion need to be adjusted to be armor based. If you are naked, they will just own you. If you are wearing armor they do significantly less damage. And the better the armor, the less damage they can do. Obviously leaving room for a crit, to make PvP less predictable.
If armor and weapons are not viable in PvP, it get's really lame. There needs to be a reason why you put on a set of armor and grab a decent weapon to PvP, otherwise nobody will.
