Resistance/Extras: It is worth noting that the Rex can achieve more damage reduction than the King can because of imprint AND saddle (if you are above approximately a 90-armor saddle on the Rex). Due to breeding/mutations the Rex can achieve more damage than the -AVERAGE- King can, since Rexs are regularly higher than 600% at post-imprint levels if you buy someones crap off the forums. 8% difference, negligible), so they are essentially the same dps. The Rex and the King at nearly 600% melee damage are less than 1% different in DPS (6625 VS 6678, difference being 53 so about. Training dummies are made of thatch, so damage numbers are way skewed and higher than if you were fighting a dinosaur but are good for testing purposes. I imprinted it fully, matured it immediately, and put a 101 armor saddle on it. I spawned in a male and female Rex, amped up breeding, and hatched the egg. To test their actual output, I loaded singleplayer and moved a fully imprinted King to SE from Abb. Will most likely use it for meat runs and such lol. You think a reaper is any better than a rex, or is it between the spino and rex in terms of usefulness? And flawlessly take down an alpha rex on one? They look cool but ive heard their melee isn't too amazing.ĭamage: Rex base dmg is 62, Reaper King base dmg is 75, and the Rex attacks faster than the King does (Rex attacks approximately once every 4/5 of a second, the King attacks exactly 1 time a second). I play pve, was wondering if Reaper Kings are worth owning. In both cases, they eat a lot of meat throughout their growth processes. not to mention at baby, they can't hear or see, only smell, and thus will always wander until they are juveniles. They lose hunger if they attack, which is something that needs to take note of since they may refuse to eat. They are easy and yet tedious for first timers to raise. Drakes can also sense its presence, but unlike direwolf, can't exactly tell where, only know its around.)

(Only the tribe can see the mound of dirt unless you have a dire wolf to sniff it out. But their sheer tail size are more annoying than Rex, which means you need to either find an isolated zone for reaper king to stay there without movement hinderance or tell it to bury itself. Reaper King has many uses, including grounding a flying dino, sweeping away at most dino if surrounded, and hell, even jump like Procoptodon and Karkinos, whereas Rex can just climb up and roar to make most weak dino and players poop, stopping whatever the dino was doing earlier. Rex on the other hand, can breed, and their offspring can mutate, possibly up to a max of 6 stat mutation and other colors.The only way you can get an 'out of natural color' color is through events, and even then, its a gamble for Reaper King if you wanna do that way since Queens only has coded color region they do not have an active color region on themselves. Reaper King can't breed, and thus can never get any better mutation than what the queen usually have based on the embryo you are impregnated by, including 'level efficiency' (+74 max).

(If anyone can link the thread it would be great) However, if some guy with a reaper rolls up on somebody who has autoturrets, that guy is getting absolutely boned.Someone had posted comparison in between Reaper King and Rex in another thread, but I am having a hard time trying to find it. 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.
