Oppressors move so slow that you can easily out run them and can easily setup to turret fire IV's which is way more effective than BRD/MCH/SMN have to offer. I have never had an issue with BLM in RW and being able to take down mechs. You have 2950 potency (includes DoT potency and emp arrow) with BRD over 5 seconds without including OGCD's (As they may not be up) vs BLM which is 2000 potency without thunder or potentially 5500 potency if you can get off two fire IV's.

So it isn't too much of a loss to reposition as you can keep 2000 potency up just walking around.
