Someone please help me to understand pvp bracket levels

[Gideon Jean-Claude]

I've searched in vain for answers, and have unsuccessfully asked others to explain the bracket range in pvp (if there is such a thing). For those such as myself famliar with WoW, brackets were such as 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, and so on. This meant the 9's (ie. 19, 29, 39, an so on) were usually the tops at their levels. Furthermore, a level 20 couldn't pvp a lvl 10-19 in any setting outside of a friendly dual in which no one died or got credit for a kill. Is there a similar setting for pvp in PL? I'm asking because on my lvl 5 I routinely pvp against others as high as 10-15. I will search games and will see one that might say 3 people playing and show the level as 7, but when I get there 2 or 3 are 10's.....maybe even a 12 or higher. The same follows for if I create a new game. Those that join will be able to be as high or higher than level 10. Don't get me wrong; I'm not complaining because I choose to twink at lvl 5, and know that fighting against higher levels comes with the territory. I'm just tying to learn more about the game and all aspects of how things work. As usual.....thanks in advance to any and all that may enlighten me on this topic.

Any level can join any game as long as they are within a 5 lv range. I.e a 56 joining a 51 game and 46s can be there too. But, recently there has been a bug were 14-20 levels higher than you can join. Hope it gets fixed though.

Thank you Deathofan for clearing that up for me.

Blizz changed the WoW bracketing to 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39 and so on.

I forgot someone told me they changed it. I quit after the update before Wrath of the Lich King that nerfed 10-19 twinks. Those were the days .....sometimes outhealing the entire Horde side (including 1 or 2 twinks) on my lvl 10 twink dwarf priest Herbalch, and making 17-19's on both sides go from flaming me calling me a noob to praising me lol.

10-18 is forgotten weapons/halloween weapons and FH armors. 19-20 are also good levels for birds.

hard part is entering a game at lower level and pvp agains a charter 5 levels higher... should be an option for the levels you want to let in to your game... example: im lvl 60 and i only want to let in 61-59 then make game... (i understand the issue of not having many ppl to compete with at that range but... that would be my choice) my solution is not playing pvp at any lower levels.

I like your idea of setting a range for your created game.

It could be a good idea but if I'm l61 and I set it so only 56's-58 can join its lame for them because its easy for a 61to beat a 56 (in most cases)

Maybe they could set it so that you can only set the level range from between your level to 3-5 levels higher.....nothing lower. This could potentially eliminate the idea that one is trying to create games in which they have an unfair advantage because of their level.
