Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a reaper? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a reaper.
STEP 1 get a rock Drake, shadowmane or megalosaurus,
STEP 2 get mushroom brews if your not using a drake or megalosaurus STEP 3 Setup a trap or ignore this step if your solo STEP 3 find a decent level reaper lv.100+ and bring it to your trap or just start step 4. STEP 4 weaken the reaper to atleast 1.8k HP with a light pet when it reaches said health turn off your light STEP 5 if your on a drake or a shadowmane hit it with a melee weapon and wait for it to grab you if your on something that can't use rider weapons get off your tame outside it's hit range and walk up to it with a shield outside it's spin attack range and get grabbed
Once you're pregnant you can die and/or transfer severs
When you get it inside you get as much exp as you can If you get to 75 and the mother was 40 then you would get a lvl 115 reaper king
R Reaper are the easiest.
Take a high health Rex and go on Gen2 to the final mission area. And fly around until you find a Reaper Queen and lure it in the acid pit (under the terminal) keep hovering above her and keep scanning her with HLN-A until she has 5000-10000 health, lure her out of the pit then bite her until she glows and does a roundhouse kick. Get of the rex and repeat it until you're pregnant.
On gen2 lead one to the acid pit easy reaper tame. Wilde card why did you make this so easy - mr YouTuber
Its Very easy to tame it at genesis 2, just make a reaper queen follow you and just throw it through the acid and about the health checking, in genesis HLN-A ( HeleNa ) can help you a lot, on pc just press the ( H ) button and you can see all the dino level and stats, I want Ups Otherwise no more tips from me 🖤👑
Honestly just dont over complicate it
3x3 stone or metal foundations
X4 dino gates
Place foundations, and 3 gates. 1 on each side
Gain aggro and kite reaper into trap, place the final gate off the back of your rock drake
Be sure to bring some medbrews, shields to waste, and maybe a charge light for convience (not essential but helpful)
Itll be below 2k health, turn off lights
Approach her, try to gain aggro and tank her attacks until she screams
That means shes going to sniff you, when she does stay about 1 foundation away from her nose and jump (may not have too, do this to conpensate for uneven ground)
Once impregnated simply get your medbrews down and get on your rock drake, kill the queen for pheromone glands and XP
How do you find queens in extinction
If the tail keeps missing you like it always does with me, I do it on PlayStation, just so you know because the controls may be different. Keep holding up your shield even after she’s grabbed you, it’s best to already have the containment chamber on hand aswell. Reaper pheromone glands are really easy to get, use a high melee pump shotgun on the low levels. Be out of their impregnating range though, because then you would need an abortion.
Once pregnant, get on a high hitter and kill Alphas, Rex's, Spinos, etc. It'll quickly get you the extra 75 lvls you need.
I read top tips...
Best way to tame these is skiff into trap if you're that far advanced. If not a drake works great to lead them into a trap. Once you have trapped, use light pet and tame to get it hurt (watch for blood spots), turn off light and attack until you see pink glow. Watch out for tail whip and spikes, then she'll grab you.
Once about to birth, fill your inventory with meat (don't use pheromones), give birth in a 1x1 box, claim, and let it eat/kill you. It takes all your inventory and you don't have to hand feed.
I love reaper king getting them is simply but is hard as hell so to anyone who wants a reaper king you just got to trap them and them beat them until there almost dead then go up to the nearly dead queen she should pick you up and put a baby in you belly while pregnant make sure you get a lot of xp off a mount so just bola ravengers or raptor and then hit them in the butt and before you give birth make sure in a room made of stone or metal and then boo you got yourself a baby reaper king also they eat a huge amount of food so make sure you have a lot of meat for your baby to feast on
Super important question, can you transfer servers while pregnant? /\ in case other people have this question
Cryopods no longer work on baby reapers
Finally you can tame a Reaper on a map that isn’t Aberration ( the bad news is it’s Gen part 2 ). How to tame on Gen part 2
1. Build a large taming pen out of metal ,minimum, to allow multiple tames
2. Go to the Rockwell’s innards biome ( actually called the Rockwell’s proliferation )
3.Fly around trying to avoid the summoners spot lights ( if they spot you just run )
4. Locate a R-Reaper queen ( their quite rare )
5. Kite her out of the unbelievably hostile biome and into your hopefully very close trap
6. As with any other Reaper tame, reduce the female to low HP until she glows pink then let her impregnate you
7. Kill stuff to gain levels for the embryo
8. Somehow ( I recommend server transfer from aberration or just killing females in Rockwell’s biome ) acquire reaper pheromone glands
9. Let the baby rip from your torso , whilst your under the effect of the pheromone gland ,and imprint
10. Raise it as a normal Reaper.
If you always want your own Baby Reaper King and raise it, here's what you'll need to do: Just find an idea to make a Reaper Queen trap. Find a Reaper Queen (recommended low level) and then lead it to your trap. When it's inside prepare a Rock Drake or Managamr (recommended Level 300+) and attack it until its health is lower than 2000. Grab some attention to the Queen and she'll sniff you and grab you with her tail and release some Symbiotes. And now if you are kind let the Queen escape. Now you are impregnated now you have a Baby Reaper! When its born, it will run hyper fast! You need to kill more Queens and eat Pheromone Gland so the baby won't eat you. The baby will run until it kills something for food. Imprint it then you have a Baby Reaper! (Ready with LOTS of food. Reapers eat a LOT)
Get the reaper queen to 200 hp then run back to base feed it baby megalos than imprint it
My way for taming reapers is to get reaper queen and lore it into large gates and impregnated and have some healing brews just you can also get multiple giving over and over again 😉
I found the best way to tame first find one then press tab the type cheat forcetame 👌 enjoy
Tank with Rock drake until its got the purple dust. Theb after the reaper do his 360 attack just jump off your rock drake and get back on it. do this a few times and at one point the reaper will grab you from your rock drake and impregnate you. Then you can get on your rock drake again and save your baby.
