Is it just me? (Viper)

[Bureda]

Now I’m not saying it unplayable but I feel like it’s bad. Idk is it just me please inform me if there is a strategy behind the job.
No mobility while defensive ask for a beat down. God forbid you see a white mage or a monk or even a RPR. Then you just wasted that button and you life. It’s a good button but gets hard countered so easily.
The job has damage but it’s time to kill seems longer and more grueling then RPR and I can fight with RPR but VPR it’s a maybe or will your friends help.
Not exactly asking for more damage but the kits is too slow for what it doesn’t have.
And on that note people can just walk away from you while you try to do dmg. That’s crazy, and I know the LB has a heavy an amazing heavy(sarcasm). But that’s it I can 0-100 almost any job with DRG who doesn’t have cc in a solid amount of time. For job that usually can’t like Sam. They have a stun and a bind to allow them time.
Also the kit feel like I’m just flailing my arms around no real cohesion, sure every oGCD you get more gauge but I just don’t see the path way for victory with the kit.
I dual, I CC, I frontline, I strike the dummy but still don’t see a path

I have more to say but I’ll hold back for now

You want to use your ranged ability on cooldown and your defensive resets pro-actively for damage or to keep yourself slightly safe until you can rotate again.

I hope that helps the quality of your games somewhat.
