How Viper Feels in Older Content (Lv 80 and Below)

[VellAshe]

Honestly, I find discussions of how Viper scales down pretty pointless as any change would be wasted because of how terribly designed Viper is at level 100. Naturally to fix that, any changes down to downscaling would be redundant.

I don't know about that; I'd like to believe it's possible to make changes to how and when Viper acquires their abilities without modifying their final kit.
Could you elaborate further on what you meant by "how terribly designed Viper is at level 100?"
I've done the full tier on VPR, and honestly I feel like the gameplay flow is fairly engaging, if a bit simple.
