Tips & Strategies
Basically I will teach you how to tame a reaper on day 1. Note that it only works in Genesis 2. Spawn near the Rockwell Cave and farm a good amount of wood, straw, fiber and about 80 leather (enough for two beds). Leave at the entrance to the Rockwell Cave a fully enclosed straw structure (I recommend a maximum of 4x foundations) with a door to exit and enter and a bed if your gestation rate is fast or if you are on a server and can't build in caves. Then enter the cave and advance to the fourth room (there is a terminal with a pulsating heart on top). Go to the bridge that connects to the terminal (safe zone, as long as you don't enter the bridge tunnel) and build a foundation with two boxes for your items and a bed. Look for a reaper queen of any level in this room and lure her to the acid lake that is below the terminal. Be careful because the front of the lake is full of worms that disable the tek suit. Go behind the terminal and trap the reaper in the hole of the lake. This lake rises and falls over time, but when it rises it melts the reaper's life. Dodge her ranged attacks and leave her there until she has 2000 life (she will start to release a pink light from her belly). Then lure her through the side opening of the lake and let her impregnate you. Fly away, grab your items. If you manage to leave the cave without dying (optional, the baby is still alive even if you die ), kill all the herbivores (or a diplodocus) that you see in front of you to level up your reaper. When you are close to giving birth, go into the cubicle and lock yourself in, when giving birth, when you are going to adopt, note that the baby will kill everything around him, this includes you. It's safer to let him kill you and come back to get the items from him (he will already be passive). Remember to deactivate the free movement before releasing him around.

Warning!!! Do not bury your reaper king in a catwalk it will be lost forever
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.
