Anyone else tired of auto-losses by composition?

I have yet to see a reaper get over 300k damage in any group I've played with, up to about gold. Can't tell if it's the players or the job.

200k for me. It usually ends with them at 160k damage dealt and 300k damage taken.

Kills, Deaths, Damage done, Healing done, are extremely good indicators of performance. Especially if you compare them to someone of the same job on the other side.

Now, I'll give you that Reaper is slightly different because it has some utility that is not reflected in those metrics. Like using your LB at the right moment to break some guards, get people off the Crystal and win in OT, stuff like that. It's also more of a single target job which will not dish out the same AOE damage as most other jobs.

It's more of a : If you know how to play the game, you can appreciate what a reaper did for your team kind of thing. Unfortunately, it is by far the job that is used the less efficiently (at least in NA). In lower ranks especially, a reaper is almost always a death sentence.

You can turn that into an advantage. Like yesterday, I was queuing up for the first time, saw a reaper that was absolutely useless. I switched to reaper and I would win each time I'd face them.

Except you don't see any of those metrics until the match is over, at that point they're only good for knowing which player(s) you don't want on your team next match. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying the job is useless, but when the team screen pops up and you get a DRK/RPR/DNC/BRD/SGE and they get WAR/WHM/BLM/NIN/MCH, it's kind of over, unless the enemy is really bad or your team is godly.
