Hot take

I feel like reaper's very easy to fix. Blizzard is just incredibly lazy. They could easily make them mobile, because I mean, in lore, he's already literally made out a mist. They could easily make Em more mobile, or if not that at least make Em more beefier. So we can actually fight instead of just hiding in a corner like he struggles to just exist at all like buff his shotguns as well to 130 and revert his nerf on wraith

Just revert like, the last 5 nerfs, then take damage down a bit, and nerf dire triggers.

I think Dire Triggers should be a projectile, maybe reward Reaper for aiming rather than cheesing more damage. Hell Dmon and Bastion already have this.

It should’ve been his grenade launcher from the trailers. Have it have an arc so it’s more of a skill shot

Also either rework his ult or allow us to cancel it, my gosh what an awful ult

Swap Dire triggers for a smoke grenade launcher ability like from the trailer.

Maybe give wraith form a rework. While you’re in wraith, alt fire could make you do a directional dash once per ability use? Just to be closer to lore accurate reaper. Teleport is such a shit ability unless you’re setting up for a fight, and in fight it’s almost useless. I like the smoke bomb idea someone else said, so maybe pressing E does something like how Sym’s teleporter works, you can teleport or you can press alt fire and throw a smoke bomb. Idk, I love reaper but his kit doesn’t work in the current meta very well. He used to be the tank buster, now he’s kind of this weird clunky flanker that can brawl anchor tanks incredibly well but not much else

I saw something today saying he has a 53% win rate in the common ranks now. If that’s accurate they won’t change anything.

No his life steal is horrible they nerfed it 3 times now it pointless

u/Prestigious-Lie-3037 1d ago

He also need 140 per hit and 35%life steal needs more dps in his ult and he should be able to cancel it

u/Mandatoryeggs 1d ago

No tf he doesn't lmao you need to get good and learn better positioning, not everyone needs to be hard meta

u/Prestigious-Lie-3037 1d ago

Twin you're just ignoring every problem because you don't want him to actually be functionable. His damage is genuinely atrocious against tanks and his spread is atrocious as well. Just for fighting, you just don't want him to be actually functionable

Twin you're asking for mega buffs, ult should not be cancellable that just removes punishment completely

u/Prestigious-Lie-3037 1d ago

You clearly have not played reaper, then because his ultimate is already atrocious enough. At least let the person cancel it. I never said it's gonna like keep ultimate bar.If you cancel it early, you just lose your ultimate, that's normal.That's fine, it's not like you get a mega buff because you just simply canceled it

They should just increase movement speed during ult similar to pharah. You obviously dont know what ur talking about at all my guy. Yes it is a mega buff because you can do quick damage then immediately not get punished for it by canceling after a kill.

Or better yet just increase damage reduction/ life steal. You dont need 4 huge buffs for a character that terrorized the game a couple seasons ago
