I'm begining to think you've never PvP'ed, and I question if you have any of the epics mentioned below.
Several times have item set stat calculations been done on the warlock fora for ideal gear in stamina, spell damage, and various other set conditions. You cannot have over 500 spell damage and high health. Felheart and Nemesis sets end up around 200ish spell damage alone, uppable to 300+ range via other items, and with the warlock at around 255 stam. These are balanced sets, providing a little of everything. Even General/Field Marshal's/Warlord do not provide 500-600 range spell damage, providing much more needed stam than damage. At the 300-400 range, you can have fairly high both, but over 500, you're absolutely sacrificing health for damage. Additionally, if you're going SM/Ruin, you're losing the demonic embrace's health bonus.
If you're being buffed by other people for health, that isn't 1v1. You also cannot 2 shot people with the new resistence rules preventing players from going negative. The kind of big crits that result in 7-10k damage over two hits don't happen anymore.
Since you've thrice demonstrated little knowledge of pvp battle situations and warlock item lore, I'm done arguing with you here.
Edit: For real warlocks out there, here's one link to the equipment database I'm speaking of. Anyone with a calculator will quickly see the warlock's stamina will pitifully pale when attempting to achieve 500-600 spell damage, even with enchants.
