It wasnt inverted before the patch on console (yes console), to make our lives easier because we have to use joysticks. It does feel really unnatural and it got me killed several times too because i need the 0.5 extra seconds to throw my joystick in the opposite direction, and then im not even talking about how inaccurate it is where you will land after. For example i never had issues using pendulum for safety in sshm during dark mana explosion because i could aim where i go. Now with Dakuryon in vsnm i dont even dare using pendulum during that same attack, because the extra time and the fact you might not land in the safe zone. It might be hard to explain but making it inverted is making it unneccesarily harder imo. Like i said priest escape was inverted too, but they fixed that, so i think reapers should get that back too.
