As the title said, that was despicable of the grim reaper. I can hear grim reaper coming but i do not know where. And while I was busy dealing with the zombies in front of me, it always sneak behind me and kill me. Just saying.

If you are referring to grim reaper in night of graveyard, then, yup, one has to be cautious about this kind of circumstance.

The grim reaper in this specific challenge mode spawn like what you described, and not only he tends to spawn behind Jodi, he also spawns below the earth most of the time, such behavior reminds me the monster in movie Tremors.

Constantly repositioning your character & be cautious not getting cornered, otherwise grim reaper would gift Jodi the untimely death.

in the graveyard map he will always spawn in front of you. hes slow in coming out of the ground. the best thing to do is just run to the other side, since he travels slow, and turn around to see where hes coming from.

im guessing you were playing on highest difficulty? i only say this because he cant 1 shot you unless so.

The thing we forget in shooting survival horror games is that we always need to change our position and always on walk/run, like shoot, run, stay, shoot, run. Pretty much the same here. He always spawns in front of you slowly coming out of ground, then slowly follows you. So if you turn your camera around after killing a zombie or some, you can always find him around and see how far he is from you.

I never stop moving for more than a couple seconds. Get my head shots in then move. The game cheats a bit in challenge mode and will de-spawn enemies and re-spawn them closer to you. I

You can hear him materialize when he starts coming out of the ground. Can hear him moan her something. At that time constantly rotate the camera to keep an eye out from where he is spawning from. Takes him a few seconds before he even starts chasing you. Also can shake off his player death animation. If you Hunch down and roll around him. Seems like he can grapple kill you alot easier when your standing. If rolling have more of a chance to avoid his deathblow and just get slashed instead.

My default strategy whenever the reaper sound effect comes up, is to start blasting zombies in front of me, and slowly inch forward in that direction. Turning around every few seconds or so.

So either I see the reaper at the direction I'm heading towards, and react early, or, if he's behind me I'm basically making sure I have covered enough ground to buy time locating him.
