Reaper A
Wielder: Unconfirmed · 3 moves · Demon path only
Reaper focuses on fast melee strings that chain well on boss HP bars. Note that a level 100 Reaper fighting-style trainer also exists for demons in the snow biome — the art and the style are different unlocks, and community sources conflate them. ⚠️ Its wielder attribution is still unconfirmed; treat lore details as pending.
How to get Reaper in Slayers 2
Every art including Reaper comes from one place: the roll: convert on the demon path, ring the Biwa Bell, choose "Give me your power" and accept the roll. The economy around it is simple — codes and level rewards supply free spins (M1LL1ON alone gives 50), each new roll replaces your current art rather than adding to it, and community reports describe rolls that return nothing whatsoever. So check the arts comparison before committing spins. If it lands, stop spinning — the odds of improving on it are poor enough that banked spins have better uses.

PvE and PvP profile
PvE
Stronger in coordinated groups where its barrage holds a boss in place.
PvP
Speed and combo variety make it dangerous in duels; less dominant solo.
Keep Reaper or reroll?
Tier A means the answer is keep. Reaper earns its slot on the cross-source consensus, and since every reroll is a fresh lottery with no pity, spinning away a working art rarely ends well. Either way, know your target before the next spin: Shockwave for melee PvP, Ice for all-round control, Blood Sickles for ranged group play — the roll replaces whatever you hold.
Clans that pair well with Reaper
Douma
Mythic · Tier ADefensive demon and Evil Art builds that want ways out of combos, especially in PvP. Keen Intellect makes it the progression clan for demon mains.
Kamado
Supreme · Tier SThe safest all-round pick for almost any build. Demons get the most from it: Sun Immunity frees a gear slot and Regen Adrenal only works on the demon path. V0.2 removed Headbutt's guard break, but the stat package still leads.
Shabana
Legendary · Tier AGroup PvE and M1-pressure demon builds — the zone buffs the whole party, and stacking Blood Poison on every swing gives real sustained damage. Solo, the value drops.
Other blood demon arts
Reaper against the field
Reaper lives in Shockwave's shadow: same melee lane, faster strings, less damage per hit, no utility. Its case is comfort — the kit is simpler to execute, and on bosses where the extra combo length lands, the output gap narrows. But in a pick-one world, Shockwave wins the lane.

How Reaper fits the demon meta
A demon's combat power stacks three layers: the blood demon art, the clan passives, and a fighting style (Soryu at level 65). Reaper occupies the middle layer — it fills your skill bar, while the clan multiplies the damage and the fighting style covers the mobility gaps. That stacking is why single-layer tier lists mislead: Reaper's Tier A standing already presumes a competent clan behind it. The tier list page compares whole stacks, and the demon-or-slayer guide weighs the art lottery against the slayer path before you convert.
Playing Reaper well
Reaper is a rhythm art: Reaping Slash opens, Harvest Dash repositions mid-string, Death Spin punishes the panic block. It has no utility and no escape, so position before you commit — against ranged arts (Blood Sickles, Tamari), close the gap once and stay inside.
Fighting against Reaper
Knowing an art's weaknesses is half of PvP. Against Reaper, the community playbook is: do not trade into the strings — Reaper's combos are the point, so disengage after the first hit and reset. Its lack of utility means one good escape (Douma's dodge, a well-timed dash) usually costs it the exchange.
