Reaper has some big problems

[Sequora]

Caster and ranged balanced should be addressed before melee “issues” are addressed.

At least you’re not getting locked out of parties.

I can't say that I've encountered any groups locking out caster and ranged players, given that there's a mandatory raid spot for each subrole. If anything, I've seen groups sitting waiting for a dedicated ranged slot to fill. And they are giving a global dps increase to both ranged and caster players.

All DPS jobs should have parity on rdps. There's no good reason not to, outside of players acting on their own self-interest to secure extra raid spots for themselves.
