To all those people who said I wouldn't run Reaper!

And ok no Reaper xp for this one but another completion...

And no I'm not doing Pt 3 yet - This character isn't Reaper capable and the ones that might be are not Lvl 1-5.

These 2 quests should perhaps be added to the "Disabled Reaper List" Devs. Because EVEN I can complete them with 0 deaths on a Lvl 5 1st life alt.

[FranOhmsford]

OK so I decided to have a real go at Reaper and...

That was on 3 Skulls - Was thinking "This is a lot easier than expected" and suddenly BOOM, Dead, Reaper appeared behind me.

[FranOhmsford]

2nd attempt, same difficulty - Reaper 3 Skull - Got a Fear Reaper this time instead of Famine and even better he turned up in front of me not behind me.

Just one Reaper per quest on 3 Skull seems a bit off but I suppose this is a short quest.

[cru121]

All I can say is good job!

[FranOhmsford]

And here's what happens when I try a Lvl 3 quest on Reaper 3....

Arti and warlock in heroics are OP- do it on a melee rogue or monk at that level

Note I stated average gear 1st life alt.

Ghost Touch isn't as common these days as it once was either.

And the Reaper actually wasn't the problem - If you watched the video you'd notice that I almost had it down when I got jumped from behind by an orange named Champion Spider!

[FranOhmsford]

Did you notice I couldn't do it on the Arti?

I also put Rogue Acrobat in with Cleric and Pre Firewall Sorc in the do not even attempt Reaper at this level on these builds grouping!

I stated that Arti is strong at low levels but that wasn't the reason I did this on an Arti - I'd have gone with Warlock if I'd built the character specifically for this - This Arti was created months ago to help a guildie who ended up not needing help past getting from 4-5.
It was literally the only Character at or close to at level to check out the Baudry Chain - I then carried on into Lvl 3s because surprisingly I made it through Baudry Pt 3 {on the second attempt having got one shot on the first run by a Reaper I didn't even see because it popped up behind me.}.

As for The Baudry Chain - Yeah you need a Ranged Character for Pt 1 {the Kobbies won't attack you so long as you keep your distance - A Reaper ignored me too and just focused on the now unkillable box} as I'm not sure the 10 kills required would be available were you to wait the full 5 minutes without killing the first wave.

Pt 2 is a Joke that should not be Reaperable! {TBH Pt 1 should be made non-reaper too}.

Pt 3 I think a Melee Rogue or Monk wouldn't have any problems with at that level - A S+B Fighter might have problems though or a THF Barb.

[Zzevel]

One would think one spawn (champ of course) or lack of spawns (to low for champs) in a quest throws the entire reaper system out of whack! CLOSE DOWN THE SERVERS! Are we all just looking for reasons to complain now? Come on..

First Epic Reaper Completion.

Two man with my mate Neshkar and our good pal Garret.

Actually extra kobolds spawn at the end when the traps are activated, so all you have to do to 10 skull Pt1 Baudrys is start the timer, go make a cup of tea, then come back and kill helplessly trapped kobolds, the 10 kills for quest completion will give you your reaper xp too.

Congrats Fran,

your speed run 2man 6 min level 4 Reaper 10 generated twice as much Reaper XP than my one hour over level Cabal Reaper 10 grind with a full party of capped endgame ready toons.

just goes to show TR life speed Heroic Reaper runs blow away endgame Reaper XP/min and can be done by any nub.

OK first of all I think you're getting mixed up.

2 man?

Baudry Reaper 10 was Solo - Not even a Hireling.


I did use a hireling on pt 3 of the chain which I ran on Reaper 3 not 10.


The two man run was an Epic TTT for which I received 31 rxp.



Umm - about that rxp...

Reaper 10 Baudry Pt 1 at Lvl 4 = 185
Reaper 10 Baudry Pt 2 at Lvl 4 = 0
Reaper 3 Baudry Pt 3 at Lvl 4 = 94
Reaper 1 TTT at Lvl 30 = 31

Btw I've since deleted that Arti that I ran the Baudry Chain on and therefore that rxp earned on it is gone.




P.S. I fully expect that by the time any of my main toons get back to Lvl 3 Baudry Pt 1 and 2 will be disabled on Reaper.

oops, I saw misadventure had half your kills...

still generated more XP/min on that than I do on my capped toons in high level content.
Just because you deleted the toon doesn't mean the XP/min wasn't generated..

The TTT is more representative of the XP capped players are getting.. just shows that Heroic at level Reaper is much more generous in Reaper XP/min..

You're forgetting that quite honestly neither of those quests I ran on Reaper 10 should have Reaper enabled in the first place!

This isn't about Heroic Quests it's about quite simply an Exploit that the Devs should fix - Baudry Pt 2 has 0 Kills and so doesn't even give any Reaper xp but does give a bonus to normal XP for running on Reaper 10 so should be disabled on Reaper.

Baudry Pt 1 was "fixed" a long time ago so the Kobolds couldn't destroy the box - This meant that players could literally speak the npc to start the quest and park themselves at the door for 5 minutes {I wasn't sure if there were enough kobolds at the end to get the full 10 kills as only 2 appear at the start and the rest are almost respawns so I killed a few to make sure there would be enough to get the completion and RXP}.

Again this quest should be disabled on Reaper if the Devs aren't willing to go back and make that box have more hp/dr rather than just having it be immune to damage.

Fair point, there is content that will have to be addressed..
Like Haverdasher.. there are only 8 scorpions so you can never reach 10 kills to achieve Reaper requirement on Reaper. and Reapers didn' t spawn when I ran it on Reaper 10... so completed Reaper 10 and 0 Reaper XP..

impressive segue into a thread hijack. definitely belongs in the achievements forums, for sure.



gj fran. i think the stealthy repo probably takes the cake.

gj fran. i think the stealthy repo probably takes the cake.

Uh?

I didn't run Stealthy Repo.

Because I'd somehow have to kill 10 mobs without killing the prophets - Not going to happen!

And yes, So long as I don't get stunned or tethered in some way I could probably run through Stealthy Repo and grab the gem for a Reaper 10 completion but that would get me 0 rxp, be reliant on a lot of luck {seriously not getting stunned, tripped, held, slowed by alert} and likely lead to multiple fails trying #notworthit.


Stealthy Repo I would guess would be a pretty tough Reaper 10 because of the requirement to kill 10 mobs BEFORE Quest Completion to get the rxp.

[the_one_dwarfforged]

Uh?

I didn't run Stealthy Repo.

mb i was only glancing at most of the post and i saw you didnt get rxp for one quest. since they were harbor quests i just assumed it was stealthy repo.

gj regardless.
