The Reaper is a Backup weapon introduced in the 13.0.0 update.
Description
It is a blue clan-themed pistol that shoots multiple shots with area damage. It has a low fire-rate (but multiple shots), medium-high efficiency, average capacity, and medium mobility.
Appearance
It appears to be a blue squarish handgun that is plated with gold and has red jewels on it. It has an accent of gray around the barrel. The barrel has three crystals.
Performance
The player, holding this pistol in one hand, will shoot multiple blue shots with area damage and a somewhat slow bullet travel time for every time the player shoots the gun.
When reloading, the player spins this pistol and take out the clip of the gun from the behind, then put it back at the end of the reload animation. It has no delay mechanics.
Strategy
Tips
- It has Multiple Shots, get into medium to close range battles.
- This pistol has bullet travel time, it's advised not to use it at long range.
- Don't solely aim at the head, since it does not have a head-shot multiplier.
- Use this weapon to move around like a melee weapon as its mobility is average.
- Take note that this will not get you far away from the battlefield.
- Cluster them with Singular Grenade and fire the barrage.
- Craft this pistol when you reached to Level 65, and you will not need any
or to upgrade further. - Use this to finish off a weakened opponent.
- Avoid performing the infamous Three Category Spam method, if you wish to use this weapon, since doing so, will just halt the burst shots when you quickly switch to the next weapon.
- If absolutely wanted to, make sure all six mini-shots are fired off before switching weapons. Otherwise, you will waste the gun's capacity ineffectively.
Counters
- Pickoff its users from long ranges.
- Keep moving, and step back from the user as this weapon is not good for long-ranged combat.
- Jump around, travel time weapons have a hard time hitting players in mid-air.
- Using Reaper yourself can be effective when countering its other users.
- Do not hesitate if you see a Category Spammer using Reaper, as Multiple Shots is atrocious if switching weapons rapidly before all 6 mini-shots get released while wastes his/her ammunition.
- Be aware if you are low in HP, even one or two mini-shots will kill you.
Recommended Maps
