    Pictomancer or Viper?

    I realy can't decide between those two. Have both at 90 now (Picto is 92 or so).

    Pictomancer has the better class fantasy and feels fun to play and I like it. Only negative is the picture painting mid fight and the extremly long cast time where you can do nothing and you have to paint a lot mid fight. That feels deeply punishing and clunky.
    Where you have to move a lot in fights constantly being forced to use very long casts is just not a good concept. Everything else around the class is fun.

    Viper has nearly no class fantasy to me, it just feels like a Monk-Dragoon-Dancer. But is fun to play and feels smooth, even with the million skills.

    Wich one do you like more and why?

    Pictomancer because it's visually and gameplay wise very different to any other job in the game, it also has a skill ceiling and lots of optimisation too it as well, e.g needing to plan movement

    Viper is fun but has a weaker design - the job is basically just a "follow the glowing buttons" and is similar to other melee. Awakening is just a better enshroud.
