Dragon does a lot of damage, and Reapers are good at soaking it. Using a Reaper, or a pair of them, is a workable way to tank the Dragon on Island, especially if you are imprinted to the Reaper. They are not 3 times as effective at bossfights though! But the availability AND predictability of Rexes and their stats tip them into favor as far as bossfights go. So melee-for-melee, Reapers and Rexes are within less than 6% of each other in damage, especially when attacking a target that is too large to be affected by the tailspin knockback. But that is a problem because getting an army of 900% Reapers (675 damage unridden per chomp) would take months of awful farming/breeding on Ab whereas getting an army of 1300% Rexes (744 damage unridden per chomp) is. Boss damage would be pretty close on a melee-for-melee situation. That means they would whip-and-fire one time, and then most likely never again. Unridden Reapers only fire poison after knocking the target back, which the drag-weight of bosses is too high for the Reaper's tailspin to move them. Now the technical side of Rex VS Reaper is: Rexes are lower base damage (Rex's 62 VS Reaper's 75 damage) but slightly higher attack speed. Considering the difference is 3 seconds, and that is a touch over 5% difference, I will consider that negligible and conclude that damage output is roughly the same. The Reaper finished in 56 seconds, and the Rex finished in about 59 seconds.
I timed the Rex eating her Bronto solo, then timed the Reaper eating his. I went out of whistle range and spawned in Brontos until I got another one with 32 pts/15318 HP. In separate areas I spawned in a level 235 Bronto, which came out with 32 points in HP (15318 HP total). Spawned in high-level Brontos with an unridden Rex and an unridden Reaper, both at 593% melee (one is 593.1, one is 593.5, close as I could get!). Of course any Rex that is 1000-1500% melee (current official PvE Rex breeds can get this high) is going to grossly outdps a 500-600% Reaper, no question there.īut because I love testing, I did a test myself. The situation is more complicated, and your test wasn't very good if your takeaway is that Rexes do 3 times the damage of Reapers. Do not use reapers for boss fights.ģ times more damage is a stretch.
Reapers on AI will bite, spin attack, and shoot the poison. Rexes on AI do more damage cause they are just steady biting. Rexes do greater that 3 times MORE damage compared to a reaper. However, if some guy with a reaper rolls up on somebody who has autoturrets, that guy is getting absolutely boned.You are not on official. They are also obviously overshadowed by Gigas in straight slug-matches.
Soaking, they get crushed by tek turrets and can't heal from cakes. Their Tail spin carries heavy weight into end-game PvP, but that's it. The Mutator in General is OP, but Reapers are really mostly noob crushers. I would imagine lots of unofficial communities will have to blacklist the reapers from the mutator cause they are OP. I don't think I'm gonna breed them, just keep looking for high level reaper queens and when i find the right stats on one, just keep it at base and clone it forever. Even with a mediocre stats high-level reaper, they are OP as heck. I now see why breeding is disabled on them and they are such a pain to tame. Originally posted by ZorTheCruel:I let one of my so-so throwaway reapers ( i have 4 high level ones so far from reaper queens) level up about 30 levels in cryo then took it out for a test drive.
