Noticed this, I played the PC version tonight did the cheese and noticed after you kill him once, they nerfed the souls after his first death which is fine. because scolding are worth it as well as clearing him out and taking on the umbral after.
I just needed the trophy for killing him (gotta get the actual last hit) and this worked just fine, got him to fall twice then dps the last 20% he had. Tyvm, indeed worked for me oct 25
why not put the vigor increase on both blades then equip moth ring i think the modifier goes to like x3.90 so there's that and i'm guessing even higher if you can get a weapon with 2 triangle slots for more vigor increase
@@annihilationgamingTM i tried this on the fungal archer daggers and if you put 2 of them on both of them i was doing 3 damage (they're both at +9) lmao 🤣
Buddy you just got a sub lol and how did you get the glowing red aura? I know it drips from the reaper but I’ve killed him multiple times never got the eyeball
Equip paladin Isaac sword. Plunge attack on this sword is crazy. I have attack power 568. But on plunge attack it make over 5000. Plunge attack the reaper 3 times and he is done. There are good plunge places all over the game 😊
Can anyone tell me why my red reaper gauge only gets to 2 dots instead of three. I'm on ngplus1 and i just beat the hushed saint again but not matter how many times I wait for him, it stays at level 2 and I don't get the better enemies who drop things, do I need to progress further? My first playthrough i don't remember who long it took ,but it went to three dots the majority of the game. Thanks for any info!!
Just did this on PC, and on Console with Co-Op. It does work the patch they did for red reaper was make it a bit smarter. you cant just afk you have to play around on ladder a bit but he will jump off sooner or later
If he goes on beam below platform he takes no damage if it was above he did. however i got another way to kill him: ruclips.net/video/C92pdSgRppw/видео.html
😆 Please! Not only is the Dark Crusader bad ass looking, it's one of the most powerful armor sets in the game 😂 That and the Paladin Longsword 😅 Because the Dark Crusader is a S class role, meaning it's literally the one of the best classes out 4 😝
The Armor set is Harrower Armour, Lightreaper Helm,Harrower Leggings. I got a video on channel called Berserk Armor Set that you can look at. Its a optional boss fight to get the armor
You have to last hit him, like i would suggest that you get him to fall off the ledge take dmg maybe once or twice depending on how much health he has and then lead him around to the umbral bridge and with him stuck there throwables can dmg him to get last hit in, or if your weapon/magic strong enough blasts him and then you get the eye
@@cleverfoxsol not sure, I hope they implement this even if you already started Ng+ because I did that and I regret it a bit. I know where I’m going and stuff but I don’t want to play a running sim just to get through the game.
@@cleverfoxsol Yes, I'll definitely update soon, especially so I don't have to do the ng+ without vestigies🤣, I just waited to farm all the vigor I needed
This is not efficient at all for the amount of vigor he gives. The strat Pwar posted is still very good. I got about 54k in about 30 minutes or so and it’s in the same area but you just get him to spawn up top then use the elevator behind to go down and farm the area just above where the blacksmith was imprisoned at.
Its not anymore but for peole that want the eye or mainly kill red Rapeaer once and go farm umbral demons then back to red reaper. it can work. I see this mostly for Newer players just starting to get quick fast like 8-10 levels pretty fast before continuing on.
Hasn't happen to me yet only crashes i really gotten was getting umbral ending where it kept crashing trying to pull platforms i had to get a friend to pull the platforms
Yea, it’s the umbral eye pickup you get after killing the reaper for the first time. Makes your head glow red and lower end “trash” enemies in umbral fear you
Where is he jumping from is the question. because if its on beam below the platform he will not take damage. however i put another video up on how to do this more legit. Because this may have finally finally been patched. ruclips.net/video/C92pdSgRppw/видео.html
Have you done it more than once? To nerf afk farming they made it so he drops less exp with every kill. You'd have to rest at a vestige every time for the full amount. Honestly not that worth it for exp. Just scouring farm now.
Why would they nerf the souls. If you where to straight up fight the reaper. It has 9k+ health! Even on my strongest PvP build that's an insane amount of health to clear without healing. They should have just instead made it so the reaper can fly, and stab people off the ladders, and if they died that way , make them lose a level. Prevent cheese, and punish no skill.
That be great but from my findings the first red reaper is only worth a set amount between 15-20k after that every other reaper you kill is between 5-9k
As a souls vet, I agree. You shouldn't be cheesing exp, especially in the beginning. You need to learn how the game needs to be played. These games aren't supposed to be easy. You need to learn the patterns of the enemies to survive. If you want easy mode, just go UGS and join as a phantom to other players and help them. You don't lose souls in their world and you can also find lots of items and mob drops. Thankfully, the devs are listening and made parrying more usable in the new patch Thurs.
There's another place in the game where you can just get the reaper stuck permanently and literally farm forever without worrying about him ever at all. It is still a secret though. I've not seen it online anywhere yet and we don't want it fixed.
@@godxyoungboy9297 It's literally damn near the very start of the game. It makes use of the very first Vestige and the big circular area down the path from it. I'll just say it, you can really get the reaper stuck up near the Vestige and then farm the area below for forever.
Update: they patched this. Now, when you're on the ladder, the reaper just spawns its swords through and knocks you off.
They said they nerf the awareness of those old ladies that snipe you with radiant magic but it doesn’t feel like it
HAHA no they sure dont seem nerfed to me. Maybe on thursday's patch?
Right! I was so confused the first time it happened, cause she literally snilped me from across the map! Lol
They didn't
the actual method still works, what they nerfed was the amount of souls you get. so you can still do it, but it isn't very efficient anymore.

Yepper
Did the long ladder in the Fen.. this one is better.. awesome bro!
This area to me is more user/beginner friendly. Because if you die its not a big deal to re-set up again
I done this a million times… this time I came back to my game and there was nothing there… just me glowing red
intresting
why not put the vigor increase on both blades then equip moth ring i think the modifier goes to like x3.90 so there's that and i'm guessing even higher if you can get a weapon with 2 triangle slots for more vigor increase
You can have +9 weapons without adding any runes 🤣😂😆😅. I should know, because I have + 9 weapons, un slotted 😂
Didn't think about it, this would def improve the strat thank you sir!
@@annihilationgamingTM i tried this on the fungal archer daggers and if you put 2 of them on both of them i was doing 3 damage (they're both at +9) lmao 🤣
I’m looking to get his eye, I want the glowing helm look. Can you help or have a video? Thanks
ruclips.net/video/z94z0NN-7LA/видео.htmlsi=AKr-Nl5oTECuEdC4 this is how I did it. Make sure you last hit him basically
Or you could try Google it 🙄

No Clue, but game was patched today give it a shot. The Cheese here wont work anymore thou
Its work the whole time for me but after playing coop it no longer works for some reason. Really pissed cause its when i needed scourings the most lol
Just did this on PC, and on Console with Co-Op. It does work the patch they did for red reaper was make it a bit smarter. you cant just afk you have to play around on ladder a bit but he will jump off sooner or later
Don't think it work anymore I got it to pop underneath the wood but when it fall it received no damage.
If he goes on beam below platform he takes no damage if it was above he did. however i got another way to kill him: ruclips.net/video/C92pdSgRppw/видео.html
Still works did it this morning
Yes Sir Just did it a bit ago myself.
Whats that armor set you use? It looks badass ASF!
The pledged knight rememberence armour.
😆 Please! Not only is the Dark Crusader bad ass looking, it's one of the most powerful armor sets in the game 😂 That and the Paladin Longsword 😅

Does this give you the umbral eye as well?

It works for me, and it is a lot faster in first game cycle. He drops once and he dies
Great
I thought they added vestiges in ng+ ?
They doing that on thrusdays patch I Thgought?
@@cleverfoxsol not sure, I hope they implement this even if you already started Ng+ because I did that and I regret it a bit. I know where I’m going and stuff but I don’t want to play a running sim just to get through the game.
nice bro i will try this trick too👍👍👍👍👍👍
its not perfect! but it can work if you play around with ladder
Whats the name of that sword? How did you get it ?
Gregory sword
Ravager gregory sword If I remember correctly.
If i'm not mistaking it for another, you need to get an object in calrath then gave it to the inquisitor i think for him to sell it
Ravager gregory sword I have a vido on channel about it and how to get it
I've just turn offline my console and doesn't update it...
Updates are good my friend
@@cleverfoxsol Yes, I'll definitely update soon, especially so I don't have to do the ng+ without vestigies🤣, I just waited to farm all the vigor I needed

@@cleverfoxsol agreed
On ps5 at least for me the game crashes after about two hrs afk.
Hasn't happen to me yet only crashes i really gotten was getting umbral ending where it kept crashing trying to pull platforms i had to get a friend to pull the platforms
Why your helmet is with a red light?
I think that the red reaper item when you defeat it?🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yea, it’s the umbral eye pickup you get after killing the reaper for the first time. Makes your head glow red and lower end “trash” enemies in umbral fear you
Umbral Eye Marco of the Axe. I have a vi on channel about it
Good for farming Umbrals
yep and you can dup boss weapons and sell them over and over for 2000k
i tryed for 2 hours straight and he didn't take any damage the whole time.
Where is he jumping from is the question. because if its on beam below the platform he will not take damage. however i put another video up on how to do this more legit. Because this may have finally finally been patched.
ruclips.net/video/C92pdSgRppw/видео.html
Does it still work after all the updates
yes
Been trying to find the best way to kill the red reaper
I feel like it takes longer now
It does take a bit longer, they slightly patched his AI he still exploitable but not as easy as it use to be
Doesnt work for me for some reason
its not perfect it works and sometimes it doesnt, i just did it tonight and it was working like 8 out of 10 times
Or you can buy the wood boss weapon for 10 umbral, then sell it for 2000 souls, if you had 60, buy/sell 6 weapons 12000 souls.
That is another way yes Sir.
Definitely wont work after the latest patch though! Killed it sadly.
i’m literally doing it rn and it worked
Hi man
When i kill him he gives me just 2000 exp why ?😕
Have you done it more than once? To nerf afk farming they made it so he drops less exp with every kill. You'd have to rest at a vestige every time for the full amount. Honestly not that worth it for exp. Just scouring farm now.
@@mintparfait @mintparfait yes i did it so many time i think 1000 times .. I let the ps5 on and go to sleep 🤣
Now it doesn’t work anymore😅
I can still do it. Did it after the pumpkin patch woth non-issue on stream last night 😐
If ur playing consol yes it may work but pc it does not sir
I just did it on PC tonight on stream it works.
@@cleverfoxsol How? He's now immune to fall damage 🤔
patched the reaper no longer takes damage when falling
No he still does.

You can still heal using briostones during the crimson spectre fight.
@@Drakael918 That's a slow minor heal. 😂 That's not guna help you in a straight up fight, trust me. It might alleviate the pain a little.
yeah doesnt work he just sticks me through the latter
Lol who's got time for this? Just play normally and you'll get same amount or more xp
Eh. I had time lol
Someone needs to get, gud 😂 +5 weapons 😆 I just started and I already have +9 🤣
So how long have you been playing, LotF ?
😆😅😂🤣
well sword and cross bow are maxed on this character.. hmmm and i beaten the game 4 times arleady. interesting i need to get better ill try
And congrats on beating the game 4 times 😝
So you going to keep acting like you found this "glitch" on your own. Considering I read about it on another website first 😂
I'll be totally honest with you as a soulsborne veteran this is not worth it even for beginners. But thanks anyway.
What are you talking about This is an absolute perfect grind for beginners....
As a souls vet as well, you can't be taken seriously lol
As a souls vet, I agree. You shouldn't be cheesing exp, especially in the beginning. You need to learn how the game needs to be played. These games aren't supposed to be easy.

Hey I agree, to a point Beginners need to learn how to play but I like to break and find things like this
There's another place in the game where you can just get the reaper stuck permanently and literally farm forever without worrying about him ever at all. It is still a secret though. I've not seen it online anywhere yet and we don't want it fixed.
And you are right! I know this spot you are saying and its crazy farm.
Can early players do it
@@godxyoungboy9297 It's literally damn near the very start of the game. It makes use of the very first Vestige and the big circular area down the path from it. I'll just say it, you can really get the reaper stuck up near the Vestige and then farm the area below for forever.
I read in the patch notes that they patched that spot, if you’re talking about the platform that you pull and pull back in the middle
Doesn't work
