Second Reaper 1 minute after 30:00 WUT?

Very buggy dlc. Much frown. 1 finger.

I can't tell if this is a joke or not. An extra red death spawns for every minute after 30 that you haven't killed the initial red death. This can happen an unlimited number of times as far as I'm aware. It's possible to make builds with crazy ability to survive but terrible damage output and the extra red deaths are meant to eventually overwhelm your recovery and end the stage because you're not playing in Endless.

This happens on every map, and has since well before 1.0 (possibly since the very beginning, but I'm not 100% sure).

Not at 31 minutes

Reapers always come repeatedly till you kill one. Been this way for a VERY long time.

Yes, at 31 minutes, and then another one at every minute beyond that. Check out an old reaper kill from about 2 and a half years ago (IE pre-crimson shroud/infinite corridor) - jump to 19:50:

A second reaper at 31, a third at 32, and a fourth at 33.

you get an extra red reaper spawn EVERY 60 seconds starting at 30 minutes, fun fact the reapers will focus on the castlevania DLC familiars like Pumpkin, and since they can't be killed with a bit of luck you can get.. many, many reapers, managed to get to 10 total before one decided it wanted me.

You can do something like that in Tides of Foscari. Just keep eating pies in the Sammy zone and eventually you'll become invincible from all the overlapping healing, and you can watch the Red Deaths pile up as long as you want

Another interesting interaction with Reapers...

The Sacred Beast's Tower Shield (upgraded Guardian Targe) gives you invulnerability when you overheal.

Sanctuary (upgraded Reflectio) provides a small constant healing effect along with the longer cooldown full heal, and can insta-kill Reapers.

With enough cooldown reduction, this can be pretty much permanent invulnerability. If you're on a map without the ability to get a Crimson Shroud or Infinity Corridor, you can keep invulnerable long enough for Sanctuary to insta-kill reapers, but since you don't have the special weapons you never get the eggs and the white reaper cutscene death is never triggered. After nearly 35 minutes on a 20 minute map, I just gave up and ended the run.

If you kill a reaper before minute 31, then the timer will automatically jump to 31, without an additional reaper spawning. That's the only case where you don't get the second one.
