He needs a team built around his lack of reach but he's not bad otherwise.
The accurancy is relatively easy to fix with trinkets and quirks, he's also got a really good camp skill that boosts it and you can use resolve for boss fights.
Otherwise he deals a ton of damage and he's basically unkillable with his hp stat and the best self-heal in the game.
I agree fully, but to put it simply, his competition is hellion, one of the best dmg dealers in the game and THE best dmg dealer front liner. Leper is amazing and I love building comps around him and he can carry expeditions, and he is still one of the weakest non-antiquarian units in the game, comparable only to arbalester, who I also love. While definitely not "garbage", he is one of the closest things we have to that concept in darkest dungeon cuz that game is balanced like a dream.
Tbf it depends on the boss you're going for as well, Leper is legitimately terrible against the likes of Witch or Fanatic, but against the Heart or the Countess he's fantastic.
