What's disappointed me most about RDM in 5.0

It's better than what we have now, which is 0 DPS from Displacement on space restricted arenas.

Would be better if they just followed through the same logic they did leading into Stormblood with skills like Repelling Shot and just moved the damage elsewhere, like onto Corps-a-corps. I've spend all expansion wondering how they could rightly remove the damage from Repelling Shot, for perfectly sound reasons, but they went and slapped damage on Displacement all the same... Now they're doubling down on it and adding a Lv72 skill to "fix" the issue they already fixed with Bard in 4.0... Even if you want to look at it as a gain on restricted arenas, you're still being punished just by virtue of being on that arena... It's baffling that they gave Engagement 150 potency and Displacement 200... "We understand that you have a slight DPS loss from being unable to use Displacement on some arenas, we're going to make that less of an issue but not outright fix the issue when it would be as simple as giving Engagement the same potency as Displacement..."

It's really hard to look at that, then look at something like Machinist that's getting Bioblaster, Auto-crossbow, Drill, and B.O.B, and not be somewhat put off... It's a bad fix to an issue that's already had a better solution created, and it's coming at the cost of a new skill that could be much more interesting...
