Angry Someone tells me Paragons are poor damage dealers

So I'm a rit in RA as thats what I usually do in PvP in general is rit (love this class in pvp situations). Well I'm on a team with a Necro, Monk, and Paragon I think oh this is great decent balance (I buff physicals). Well we get going and the para puts up mending refrain on us plus he spams anthem of weariness, I'm thinking ok motivation with slight command line for some buffs. Well we get in and he's full healer zero in spear nothing. So I ask him:

Me: Paragon do you have any damage whatsoever?
Him: I'm a healer paragons are poor damage dealers.
Me: Paragons have a DPS to rival a warrior.
Him: People just think that due to Anthem of Flame.
Me: I have personally done a critical hit of 113 damage in Gate of Madness with Spear of Lightning.
Him: Paragons have no good spear attacks.
Me: Spear of Lightning, Spear of Redemption, Holy Spear, Vicious Spear, etc
Him: Trust me I took 13th in HoH where poor damage dealers
Me: You can buff teams and still do loads of damage you know.
Him: Yeah, whatever man.

The End

I feel sorry for my paragon with this running around, maybe I'm acting childish right now I dunno.

Oh, hi.

So ranged Eviscerate is bad, now. OK, then. There's lots of morons in RA; that Paragon you met was one of them.

Yeah...the vast majority of players have no real understanding of the game.

I blame the cake-walk called PvE.

Someone told me Ripostes were pro in PvP too, but only on Necro primaries. He also said meleemancers are pro, so it must be true. Plus, no one could even defeat his pro build, so it must be pro. We could finally settle this once and for all if only ANet could listen to all the pros and finally make RA 1v1 with Observer mode.

I may have just stuck on it too hard, it was RA and I'm just glad pts farming like everyone else.

Paragon damage is decent for ranged. A weapon that does a lil more damage then sword at range ftw. RA people are stupid I go in and try to start arguments to make people look stupid when they contradict themselves.
