Reaper, RPR

Can't take you seriously when you say you can't see what's going on when you play a Lawlafell. Besides the Reaper buttons like up like a Christmas tree when you have enough gauge to spend it on something.

When you press Soul Slice, Grim Swathe would show up next on that same key and then Guillotine since you’re doing a AOE anyways make it all one key press 3 times. If possible macro program it for the players to have an option to do so.

This sounds awful to be honest.

You have two positionals on moves that you rarely use to begin with.

No offense but cmon.
If you have issues with this then you have significantly more problems to worry about in any content where your damage will actually have a real impact.
The positionals aren't even part of your main combo you have so much time to position yourself beforehand before they even happen.

Sounds like you are terribly confused on how reaper plays. You have next to no positional requirements compared to other melee.

Only two conditional attacks in the entire kit have potency bonuses for proper positioning. Gibbet and Gallows. That's it.

Missing them every now and again isn't going to hurt you any. They won't cause you to fail a fight.

Even so, its beyond easy to hit them.

The problem is the positional movement. With RPR I have to always be on the move while pressing multiple possible combos. I think the positional requirements should be removed or at least fuse some of the skills like the solo instances where one button will do 3 combos.

Aaaaaand this is why all the jobs in the game don't require a brain stem to play anymore.

Yoshi P specifically said during the media tour this job was meant to be 'technical' and more involved. If you want to play a DRG clone, why not just play that?

What? I rarely have to move at all true north is up for almost every positional change. I just stay behind and true north anytime I need a side postional or right before gluttony. I may have to move like once every 2mins lol

Reaper has TWO positionals! Use true north if you cant get behind the boss or on the flank when you need to... you should be able to hit 90% of your positionals without much effort.... jesus.
I hated that monk had positionals on every button - but you people who complain about even two are just.... why? its not hard at all...

you arent using gibbet and gallows 90% of the time - so that is CLEARLY not the reason youre not looking up.

I keep seeing people say this and I'm curious because I don't play melee, what makes the other jobs more difficult?
