    I main rpr in EW and I have to agree...it wasn't very fun knowing I was basically playing the weakest melee. Like it was ok and I didn't really have any other choice since smn was gutted in EW and I didn't like any of the other melee. Plus I believe it wasn't great in TOP or DSR. In fact, I remember ppl saying that RPR was really unfun in EW Ultimates bc of the downtime and it sufferd more from the downtime than other melee jobs.

    RPR being a gauge building job is naturally a bit disadvantaged in ultimates. However, being a gauge building job, its strength means that if you're in a competent group you can hold A LOT of resources going into the final phase and dump everything into meeting that final DPS check - which is the only one that really matters. So while it wasn't considered a top meta pick, it could still definitely pull its weight.

    You can check the historical data on TOP if you don't believe me.

    I believe you. I only going by what others have said in the pass and pretty much every I talked to who played rpr in dsr and top have said the same thing. The job is really unfun in those fights and you better off playing something else. That what I based my opinion on, how fun a job is in content. This is off-topic so Im not going to go to much more into it.
