What's Wrong With Reaper Shroud?
What are you talking about? The damage should be the same. The only difference is npcs often dont have high armor or damage reductions (like protection, rise etc.).
Are you saying that other classes have more armour and more damage?

Not necessarily, just htat players can defend themselves better than NPCs usually. High toughness, protection and other effects (like rise) can cause what would be a 10k hit to only be like a 4k hit.
Also remember you won’t have as many offensive boons on yourself when compared to an open world zerg, or even a raid/fractal group, as your team will be more spread out instead of stacked.
Reaper shroud would be fine if death charge wasn’t so buggy and easy to avoid. If GS is suposed to be a pve weapon why is it so slow? everybody doesnt have an asian boon mesmer slave to give them quickness.
As stated before, against players, there are more damage mitigation in play, more defense both passive & active. There are also lots of on demand protection boons flying around. So your damage is pretty much going to be 33% reduced quite often. Then when players activate their blocks, invulns, evades, etc.. be it passively or actively, you’ll be hitting for 0. This is not to mention players are always smarter than npc’s, so a lot of your key big attacks are dodged.
Say we’re all necros, when fighting a fellow necro, we all know to dodge Executioner’s Scythe & Gravedigger for an example. Against npc’s these hits are almost always guaranteed.
Run full zerk. The only thing I can think of that’s slightly borked with RS is the wonky patting with RS2. And the really short duration on Rs3, which sort of makes sense because it forces you to choose but I saw the nerf as unnecessary. It’s still way too short imo.
The damage on reaper is absolutely fine and doesn’t need buffing AT ALL. The auto attack chain (Christ, even RS2, RS4 and RS5) all do similar if not more damage than Lich AA.

That’s v rude. Shame on you.
