Reaper expectations

[MagiusNecros]

Scythe is a slow weapon so I don't think we will see long combos. Just small but slow ones.

I wonder if Reaper will powercreep Samurai.

Lance is a slow weapon with DRG having one of the longest preferred gcd of melee dps. Yet it still has just what accounts for one long continuous combo.

That's not how it works.
Every job have around 28 skills to use, that are distributed according to role/utility.
SAM has most attack skills, because it doesn't have any party utility - DRG/MNK have fewer attack skills, because party utility. Healers have almost no attack skills, because they are healers.
We'll see about Reaper, maybe another personal DPS without party utility.
