I agree...also funny thing is (since reaper is perfect according to delusional serpent) there is also a thread on reddit about the new pvp 6.18 changes and low and behold players mention reaper SEVERAL times about being the weakest melee. Here is a bit from elo player i found interesting and completely cosign:

Anonymous Reaper-

Even in high Elo Reaper isn't as useful as you think, I played majority of top 100 all season, and although its fear is fantastic, it has the lowest damage of all classes in pvp. Not only does it have the lowest damage, it's Plentiful harvest takes over 1 minute 30 seconds without dying to full stack it. There are fixes reaper need. It is still considered one of the worst classes in high elo, even with meme fear wins by fearing off the objective with no time left.

Edit: I figure I should add, I climbed from no rank to crystal playing reaper, as well as roughly playing around 100 games within crystal as well. Not only did I play Reaper, but I played dragoon, monk, ninja, smn, and mch all in the top bracket for 2 months.

Reaper is by far the weakest class in all of pvp, not even debatable imo.

There are two major fixes that would help them a lot. Make communio have no cast time, and make plentiful harvest easier to stack, Its reapers only big hit outside of communio, and it takes 2 life times to stack.. it isn't even funny. Alternatively, you could also make it so you don't lose stacks on death. Either or.
