No really I'm not being sarcastic for once, its kit is a meme that works in mass PvP. Really quite well if you have the luxury of babysitters and/or not treated like a bounty target too much.

As for the OP, well it's already been said. You've likely only seen high damage from perpetually ignored vipers for the most part. The patch notes sure made me groan, and I have a couple quick tests to do while in-game but for the most part... yeah... it's not the most ideal change. Making -50% damage taken not drop during Blacklash would've been a great start tbh.

K, I don't play VPR, they just weren't on my radar as a threat.
