    Lv 90 and main it in the current saveges.

    The story for it was good, like the new perspective on voidsent and how they're not all evil demons unable to be reasoned with. Also like how the entire Dun Scaith and Machi storyline was how bad it is for mages to form contracts with voidsent and how it always leads to betrayal or their downfall, and here is the WOL making a contract with one. Some Y'shtola actually points out in the newest quests if you play as a Reaper. And she basically says we're the exception to the rule.

    As for the job itself, it flows like like water, espesially into the burst phase of enshroud and after with little down time and pairs neatly with how the avatar attacks are on a separate cooldown and don't cancel out your own allowing for you to tag team with it nicely. The idea you can't weave GCD's into it is absurd when I do it all the time. You don't have to wait for the animation to finish so long as you see the shield pop up for arcane crest you can cancel into a different attack. Same for plentiful harvest. I agree they should re-buff arcane crest tho. Also hate how every party buff is just "number go up" when bosses have a diverse set of debuffs and buffs we don't get. Also it's the best melee DPS I am pretty sure so don't know what you mean by bad DPS. Think Samurai only beats it by a hair.

    The cons, enshroud doesn't hit very hard as well as communio despite looking like it should KO anything, Just feels like another layer to the standard combos. Could use some bigger, harder hitting finishers. Also harvest moon is neat but the cast time needs to be shortened in combat as it's next to worthless otherwise.

    Forbidden website statistics say otherwise.




    Again, RPR is viable in ALL content, inlcuding the new ultimate. The topic at hand is not RPR's viability.


    Instead, I want to talk about how we can make a good job feel even better, and thus, I posted my thoughts.
