Tips & Strategies

These are brilliant they're C attack seems to have a 180 degree AOE and MASSIVE knockback and they can shoot a projectile from the tail which slows things so much a gallimimus would look slow with it! The slowing projectile and the fact they're brilliant prime meat gatherers makes them excellent for helping to tame carnivores!.. only one problem... You have to let a wild reaper queen stab you and lay her egg in your chest then let the baby hatch out onto the floor and feed it using reaper pheromones to stop it eating you alive.

A max level with full imprint can solo the broodmother.
If you have a baby reaper king cryo it.When you deploy it,it will no longer try to run away and you can interact with it without any glands.Lets make sure people see this info
When it's a baby put as much meat on your body as possible and let it kill u when it harvests your body it will take all the meat out of your body. π
If you are single player mode, and you die you can reload your previous save with this animal only. By using a gmsummon to summon a tamed reaper your game will crash. When u relaunch you will be playing your previous save. Better than losing everything. Reaper is the only animal that will crash ur game when summoned.
A maewing can pick up and feed Reaper baby
Lure a Reaper Queen into a metal trap WITH A COVERED FLOOR SO IT CANNOT ESCAPE AFTERWARDS, that way multiple people can get pregnant from 1 good Queen. These other beach noob comments forget that detail. Using glowpets to weaken her, damage her until she reaches 2k hp, preferably with a Megalo or Reaper, but Drakes work too. Turn the lights off and she'll glow pink, showing she's ready. Now dismount and stay just out of reach until she leans forward, at which point she'll try to pick you up and BAM you're pregnant. There's a Drake trick that works without dismounting, look it up. Use the next 12 hours to trap more Queens, finishing them off with a shotgun to get the most exp for the baby. Once time is up, encumber yourself with meat in a small room and let the baby kill you when it hatches. It'll take all the meat regardless of weight and you won't have to handfeed it at all, pheromones are worthless lmao. Use a crab to pick the baby up and it'll stay there until it hits juvenile.
Logging off pauses the pregnancy timer.
The maewing will feed baby r reapers just make sure to put food in the marwingβs inventory and turn on nursing
Pressing R1 whilst riding any reaper variant on PS4 makes the reaper do a roar.
