Did they buff the surface reapers cause now they do insane amount of damage???

Did you forget a charge pet?
Cause they are weak when you have a charge pet or other charge light source. But if you forget one......

they for some reason do 10x more damage now apparently

nope always have a light pet. Damage went from in the 100"s to 1200 over night per bite. Pet was on it has over 3500 charge on it.

We were on the surface last night and had reapers which were 999 doing around 537 damage to us with their tail swing. The damage was mostly nullified by the mating bonus+the insane ascendant saddle we have for our carnos, a very lucky drop in our server a saddly with 352.7 armor. Even still, that is around 250 more than the previous times we encountered the reapers, so the damage was definitely buffed and I say good on em for it. The surface has too many goodies to make it too easy to get them.

Once you get a good drake or two, you can by pass most reapers kings to get element ore and beacon drops. Drakes almost make most other dinos in the game not worth using. I guess the Reaper King needs a buff or three

Ditto for the 'Lisk

I would imagine when they did this fix "- Massively improved Tamed Reaper stats" that it also bled over to the wild ones??? Might explain it, might not.. but food for thought! :-)

The buff stated TAMED but wouldnt be first time this happened :P. And yes rock drakes are awesome and can open up anything to you. they are also the most fun to move around on

[bigbones79]

i had a awesome rock drak they just cant take 1200 in damage an reapers were spawing in pairs so 24oo damage

You had a lvl 999 doing less damage then our lvl 40 over here they were doing 1200 damage. I agree it shouldnt be real easy up there but getting hit 3 timesd and dead is insane.

I lead one of the surface reaper king into the tunnel, and then it was day time, it starting hitting like a wet fish again. Did they give wild reaper kings a night time buff?

Oh no, the 999 does way more damage than that. We had mating bonus on two paired carnos+two 352.7 armor saddles. Normal hits from those reapers did 9-58. The tail swing did 550-599. On our ravagers who have WAY lower saddle armor it was around 2.5k.

275.31 :
- Increased Wild Reaper King Damages by 300%

It is either this, or they gave them an extra buff.

[AlphaGodith]

they did indeed accidentally buff surface reapers in their attempt to buff tamed ones. found out the hard way. lost a pack of ravagers, a rock drake, and a featherlight.
