I just picked up viper myself, and it brings back horrific memories of shb.
"Hey man, I'm gonna try Viper. I know you play it, can you give me a basic run down on how to play it?"
"Oh bro it's SO EASY just hit the glowy buttons man"
*ptsd intensifies*
"This reminds me of when people said that about dnc, when you're supposed to be pooling feathers and gauge for burst, and spending to prevent overcap"
"nah bro it's fine just hit the glowy buttons"
viper is the kinda job you can pick up, have no idea what youre doing, and just go push buttons .. and your dps wont be absolute trash in casual content... unless youre really really bad and beyond saving. I barely know what I'm doing on it at all. but im getting by. but this is bad. this is dumbing down the game which only welcomes more problems.

BUT

theyre giving us the condensed combos people asked for, so this is what it would be like if they did it to all the other jobs... it feels ... weird. bland. idk. just some thoughts on it after playing it in 3 duties. the tooltips confusedthe shit out of me when i was trying to set up my hotbar too ... its all over the place
