No changes.
No. Viper is fine.
If we type no in Japanese they might listen! いいえ いいえ いいえ いいえ
I really hope you're right. I want to be proved wrong, but there's so many times the community has voiced their opinion and been ignored, especially when it comes to job changes. I'll protest these changes to Viper alongside everyone else. I'm not saying we shouldn't voice our opinion, we have the forums for that very reason. All I'm saying is that their track record for listening to player feedback towards jobs isn't great.
No
I haven't even logged into this forum account in years but I had to for this. I've actually been having a lot of fun with it and am not sure where the inspiration for these changes this early into the expac is even coming from. It's a ton of fun as-is. No changes needed.
NO changes. Hell, if anything, give it something for damage mitigation and lower the lv requirements of some actions otherwise at lv 50 it feels hella weird.
I was really hyped to play this job But I'm just really really bad at it (meele was never something I got along with well).
But even I think they shouldnt do this changes.
The Job should stay like this for people who like it the way it plays now.
So a "No" to the changes from my side too.
This made me reactivate my forum account for the first time since Heavensward just to pitch in and say, please, please, leave Viper alone. After 6 straight years of dumbing down every job in this game SE finally released a new one that feels really good; if anything, it's still a little too simple for my taste but it's the most fun I've had since my old main was taken from me.
If there's someone who thinks Viper is "too hard", they have 19 other combat jobs to choose from. I have 0.
I am hoping that they change their mind and don't change Viper as I currently really enjoy it as it is now at max level with the upkeep of buffs and debuffs along with a lot of oGCDs.
I made my own thread as well explaining my specific grievances with the changes in hopes that, if they see specific examples of why their changes are undesirable, the developers will listen. I will link to that thread to resummarize my thoughts rather than type them all out again here.

To say it quickly, I believe there should be no changes. However, to everyone speaking for no changes, I implore you to explain why you like Viper the way it is. The developers need to know what specifically you are enjoying so they know specifically what not to change.
Thank you all for fighting the good fight.
