Why is RDM invisible right now? Where is the outrage?

[MaraD_]

In order to justify RDMs lower DPS, and lower than SMN, you need 4+ deaths within the same minute.
4 deaths... let that sink in.
1st death, healer#1 gets.
2nd, by 2nd healer.
3rd, you or SMN can get.
4th, no healer or SMN can get this one.

The tax on DPS is far too high for being able to raise the 4th+ person.
Chances are, the run is either lost. (savage) or the run is saved, when you can just faceroll it in a normal group.
Can a group be really good, and save a run from more than 4 deaths in a minute? yes, but for them to be that skilled, chances are, they wont have that happen again, its too unlikely for players that skilled to run into that problem.

To be fair, there's still the game outside of savage. You can force 7 other literal chimps to clear normal raids. Also when the new PoD comes, rdm is the only job that will do the competitive solo runs on the scoreboard.
