How many reapers are near the aurora

[ItsKevin183]

So i was exploring the aurora with a friend that told me where i needed to go and how to fix radiation etc and than i was done with the aurora and i was going back to my base and than like 50 meters away from the aurora TWO REAPERS came out of nowhere, my friend said that i needed to stand still and than 5 sec later i just swam away with my seaglide (i have a seamoth now)

Theyre all around the far side and nose of the ship where it gets deeper. no specific number.

.......[SPOILERS].......

Subnautica Wiki.... Lists all information on the Reaper Leviathan, including locations where they can be found and how many are in the game.

http://subnautica.wikia.com/wiki/Reaper_Leviathan

When I go to the Aurora (in the Seamoth) I drive directly east from my base near my Life Pod right up to the side of the crashsite and traverse along the side toward the bow, stopping a short distance from the entrance.....Then look for a place to hide the SM from view and swim or Seaglide (lights off) the remaining way, keeping a listen for the roar in the distance.

Always keep your ears open for the first signs of these guys being in the area...Sammy the Reaper has already got me on a few occations.

When i first met a reaper i was like: ESC->SAVE->ESC and than just swam away with my seaglide

there are places with a lot more reapers than the surroundings of the Aurora...

Generally, it's 100% safe to hug the side of the Aurora from about midway along the ship at surface level, and go through one of the breaches quickly to reach the relatively safe bay there. As long as you stay at surface level and don't dawdle, you'll never have to deal with the reapers that spawn fairly deep behind the bow.

Another necro'd thread, another chance to fix wrong information.

There are 8 reapers in the crash zone. If killed, they do not respawn. There's a popular game map that shows 7, but while that map is overall very good, it has the leviathan positions all wrong. There's a better leviathan map out there which names all of them.

Wrong there's 10 reapers in the entirety of the crash zone! the 8 you're thinking of likely is the Dunes biome as there's 8 reapers there.

The Crash Zone and "near the Aurora" are a bit different.

But just to be clear, here is the breakout:
- 3 Reapers on the northern side of the Aurora (one technically spawns in the Bulb Zone)
- 1 Reaper on the eastern side
- 3 Reapers on the southern side
- 4 more Reapers south of the Aurora, including 2 in the crash zone mesas sub-biome

To be complete:
- 8 Reapers in the Dunes
- 6 Reapers in the Moiuntains

= 25 Reapers total in the game (number confirmed by the devs)

This is now correct and they do respawn.

Oh, well... huh. I thought there was only one more down there. I guess none of the maps I've found are correct.

[admiral1018]

This map correctly shows the locations of all the leviathans:

[Dogger]

there are ten reaper leviathans near aurora
