How do I kill a reaper? reaper battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
A lev 159 spino can't kill a lev 16. Like so others see!
I heard that these guys were based off of the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise, and it definitely makes sense. Get impregnated by a queen, have a horrifying chestburster emerge and try to kill you? Seems pretty familiar!
On Genesis, it's in the Lunar Biome.
Wait to tame them you have to be there mom.

Since i cant find this anywhere. Reapers take reduced damage naturally so its a good soaker. Dont bring light pets near theese because they take more damage and deal less damage.The reaper burns when light is near it. Nameless will attack it tho. Sorry for bad english.
Tip the 12hr gestation period counts down only when online logged off with 10 and half hrs left logged on this morning and it was still at 10 and half hrs. Will confirm
I have a ? About encountering tamed reapers. Can the rider be picked by flyers? Also if not what is the best counter to a reaper? Its speed makes it difficult to deal with when it slows dinos like Rex's or a giga as it leaves you very vulnerable during raids. Im sorry for asking here as I know this is more for tips but I havent found answers to this anywhere
An easy way to feed your reaper is to have 2 full Fridges of cooked meat or more in your inventory and have the baby kill you and bam you don't need to constantly feed it
Hope your death is quick and painless
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.

If you happen to find a Reaper Queen in the rad zone, I recommend not going much further or you will find yourself overwhelmed very quickly! It seems once you run over their spawns they spawn more often, so when you’ve fought a few queens and think to yourself “my health is low, I need to leave” there is very likely more queens waiting for you on the way out!

They WILL one shot you if your on foot. Keep your lantern pets close and your mounts closer.
There's a glitch about half way through the baby stage where the baby attacks you regardless of the gland buff this drains it's stamina which will drain it's food to recharge as long as your baby has food in it's inventory it wont starve because of this even if it's food hits zero just feed it like normal and keep a close eye on it
If you encounter a reaper queen she will have 45,000 health and if you come across a reaper king they will have much much lower. For both of them make sure you have a light pet and a decent hp Dino and melee. Surface reapers explain their self but their are many and they overwhelm you so be careful. Happy hunting survivors and don’t forget to be adventurous.
Forget what all these limos say you need to get it’s health to under 1000 then wait till it starts glowing and then let it impregnate you afterward kill a bunch of brontos and put all the meat in your inventory and when you give birth let the reaper kill you, then it’ll take all your meat, then trap it in a cryopod and release it then it won’t try to kill you and then BAM you basically have the grim reaper on your side
Build a trap with 5 gates that are metal a big boy gate and a 3 by 6 lair then build a a box near the queen and if you got teles build one there and back to ur base
When on a meat run bring your light pet most decent levelled rock drakes will kill them.
To get one pregnant by one a simple box with foundations and a space for you and your tame to run through is required. Chomp on it until it glows pink then let it impregnate you by shooting normal arrows at it. Again make sure there is no light pet or you won't see the pink.once impaled
Once impregnated, take your tame up and down spino river to get your Extra 75 levels depending on the server multiplier you have 12 hours. Make a metal box 2 wide 4 long and 2 walls high with a ceiling. about 10 minutes before you give birth encumber yourself with about a about 350 stacks of cooked meat and 500 metal ings when you give birth your first job is to claim it it jumps around which makes it a little difficult hence why you go inside the box. Once claimed it will attack and kill you and take all the meat and metal around you. You will not need to feed it again till juvenile or adolence.

If you plan on battling reaper king, have a decent mount that can tank and possess an AoE attack/push back attack. Killed one on a Spino in 3 minute. Smaller animal will get killed easily. Difficulty 6 server setting for reference and vanilla stat modifier.
Throw a dodo at it and run before it shoves a chestburster down your throat.
