[I dont Like gimps]

It would seem you failed at your Sense Motive check.

its only a nerf in heroic and early epics, for end game is actually a buff

It’s still a nerf for most of the game

Almost any build is viable in heroic/epics, this changes doesnt change that, yes you are not as OP as you used to, but that doesn't kill the playstyle, hell even at 21 the distance is not that big.
You want to know whats trully nerf? try a bow

Almost any build is viable at end game, the new MD loot doesnt change that, yes you are not as OP as you would be if you have it, but that doesnt kill end game, hell at end game the distance is not that big.

MD is not a cash grab, you want to know what really is a cash grab? Try running first life toons as SSG continues to make it more and more of a slog to try and encourage the purchase of store goods while making earning ddo points more of a tine consumption.

To this poster I say, since you are fine with them making some of the players i play with’s experience more sloggy and less fun, i an fully content with them inpacting your game play with making MD loot that is super rare so that you meed to slog it out and pay for your super powers in your playstyle.

Cheers

One thing is not the other Reapeaters were never really OP past very early levels where they might oneshot mobs but they were still limited to single target and attack speed

It’s the slog of waiting between shots now that is the nerf with the attack speed being even worse

Even at cap where the DPS is an increase it’s still incredibly slow and one of Artificer best significant features has still been nerfed to useless

I thought the problem was that it doesnt give DS even tho it should and not that the tooltip is wrong

Right now, you are correct. But this is SSG we're talking about. In 6 months someone will decide that it's easier to fix if this is WAI and the tooltip is what's wrong.

And we've already seen a few of these "fixes"

Not always though, the death aura spell used to tick every two seconds, they changed it to three seconds but forgot to change the tooltip for years, but once it was pointed out to players they quickly changed the tooltip to avoid controversy.

They change whatever they want whenever they want with total and utter lack of concern for their clientele, they do this time and time again, you need to know who and what they are for exactly what they do, and dont sugar coat it in any way.

If you lower your expectations enough you will find then acceptable, but you have choices. I for example dont spend and no longer recommend the game to anyone in my circle of friends, my friends are well informed on which gaming companies are unreliable and they should never involve themselves with when looking into future games to play or purchase. I include the entire umbrella that is related here.
