Melee classes are sad in CC

[Corbeau]

I've more than once popped Reaper LB to disrupt or cancel guard only to immediately blink out after drawing the attention of the entire enemy team. You can still Communio from range - which is a lot more damage than dying trying to get full melee attack value!

Yup. Pop it and hope you can toss Communio before you get nuked into oblivion. That's if someone wasn't out of the Hysteria range and doesn't CC spam and stun you, then you get nuked by EVERYONE. I wouldn't bother listening to Grinning Serpent or Bubbly Boar. Neither one of them even have Reaper unlocked. They do however have every current meta S Tier and A Tier PvP job unlocked and leveled. Including broken Black Mage that Yoshi P publicly apologized for overbuffing and overtuning. Though they are going to tell us "get good" and "you're just bad." Yeah sure... sounds like a couple meta humpers defending their precious meta jobs to win. God forbid there be another job that can actually stand up to them.

NIN/DRG/WAR have been meta picks for ages, and MNK/PLD are brutal in the hands of players that know what they’re doing. SAM is still one of the strongest low rank/casual pubstompers

Melee are fine, lol. There are jobs that need tuning up, but saying melee jobs aren’t meta or weak in CC just makes 0 sense. Especially if this is low level play below crystal tier at minimum, where you can make basically any job work well by just pressing buttons and a moderate dose of getting good

I play monk and I am pretty happy with CC, actually. There is more a case of a few things I would want toned down or changed with other jobs than my job being buffed.

Played over 500 matches as reaper. We suck dont let them fool u with the "HiGH SkiLL" lie

The Cancel Guard is about the only useful part. Who cares if it's a 5 second Hysteria, like it matters when they just turn around and shoot back or use movement rushes. The Hysteria is useless, because by the time you've caught up to them running, it's gone and they can just fire back. The Hysteria only helps when they are being target by your teammates, and they can't fight back, so good luck unless your a premade in voice chat for call out. Though i'm sure it's "good" that's why there is a whole mess of Reaper players in PvP. Oh wait... there isn't. It the most rare job to see. Gee, I wonder why?

This^^^^^ Someone finally gets it...

I wouldn't mind if they had some kind of CC immunity or a sprint applied during their LB. Something to let them actually do their melee combo from the LB while chasing down one of the players they just feared.

Sprint can be used or we can use Hell's Ingress for that. CC Immunity would be good though. We don't get to "blow everything we got" like all the other melee DPS LB's and are WAY too vulnerable after using our LB, but only for 5 seconds. Making it so we're immune to CC the whole time we're Enshrouded would be too strong. I don't know if it's possible but maybe make Hell's Ingress targetable dash attack with a low potency like 5k or something to quickly catch up to someone who's got Hysteria so we can actually use Void Reaping. We have to decide if we want to Communio or Void Reap. If you are going to Hell's Ingress and Void Reap, better make sure you're not going to in the middle of the entire enemy team. Better to Communio and stay out. Though if you're trying to nuke someone else, better to Hell's Ingress and Void Reap.

Secondly, they need to give us more ways to get Immortal Sacrifice / Soul Sacrifice stacks. Getting just TWO by using Soul Slice which is full OGC is painful enough. Getting more before you get nuked is just plain wasting your time. You have to get lucky and kill someone or get an assist to get anything more than two. We need more ways to to get our potency of Plentiful Harvest increased via stacks. Maybe one stack for a full Infernal Slice 1-2-3.

RPR is one of the strongest classes right now. They're very tanky, reliable, and Hysteria is incredibly powerful.

If you haven't learned how to play the class properly in 500 games, maybe you should accept it's not a class you're good at? Or maybe seek out some help?

I mean like a sprint that doesn't turn off. The minute you attack your sprint goes away, but ya a CC immunity would be nicer.

Honestly I think the LB just needs to be redesigned like nearly all the LB's in the game lol.
