The Reaper experience - FFXIV

Reaper is a super fun class to play, but i like to give it an edgier twist, something i think most FFXIV players either hate or love

I'd wanna add. "Become a Reaper, and completely misunderstand voidsent lore for your edgy RP!" to that list. lmao

[@humbleebumblee]

I can definitely see this

[@Faolanplays57]

I'm a lore nerd and I'm still guilty of that one 😅

The real Reaper experience is tending to your farm and summoning a Voidsent to chase away tax collectors

Male Au Ra will never look this cute. I love how spikey he is.

[@BirdCyclops]

originally i planned to make the character look closer to the ingame models but then i was like "no actually lets make em look cute"

[@Aritso]

@@BirdCyclops You've made me like an edgy Au Ra, now I wanna see more of him being a lil edgelord!

[@PridefulShadow]

Hey now, my male Ra has made so many funny cat faces I get called "cute" a lot when I share the shots. >;P

[@greatazuredragon]

You do the slice~ You do the spooky slice~ ^^

[@theikachi]

The "Omg i forgot Soulsow" i just felt it on my soul every time i start a boss Edit: i now doesn't forget Soulsow!! but now i forget to use the Dot.... (Aka Shador or Death/Whorl or Death)

[@MasacoMike]

I feel so called out lol

[@IceFire1800]

you reap what you sow. and boy howdy was it not souls :'(

[@MyVanir]

It's not a dot... you dolt.

[@Buttersaemmel]

you know i actually feel so good getting my rotation down perfectly dodging a mechanic with my teleport, blasting the instant cast on the boss, immediately teleporting back in....just to realise the "debuff" wasn't there the whole time...fml

[@LowIntSpecimen]

​@@MyVanir something something debuff over time

[@StriderHoang]

Story quests: We reapers walk a fine line in order to use our void sent powers without being fully absorbed by the void sent. WoL lvl 90: Hey! Look at what I can do! (Enshroud)

[@ianlindstrom2019]

It helps that canonically the WoL is just built different. Heck, it wouldn't even be the first dangerous forbidden art the WoL has delved into. Or the second. BLM and DRK have those honors. It's also not the first possession risk, that belongs to DRG. RPR trainer shows up like they're handlin' the hottest shit and WoL is just "Yup. Same shit, different day. Hand me the scythe, already."

[@Corrderio]

Me learning reaper: This job is easy: Me learning double Enshroud: Brain.exe has stopped working

[@greenumbrella6249]

For me its almost ridiculous how often I ingress/egress'd myself into an aoe. Its almost like my dragoon and my blackmage job stones are conspiring against me in the worst possible ways

[@Vakrios]

I feel your pain. Most embarassing one for me was back during the tomestone event when I farmed the Nier raids, and during Red Girl, when she divides up the platform with a box of death in the middle... I used ingress over it THREE TIMES. Twice in the same raid, 3rd time in the raid after. I was so ashamed of myself and my friends never let me forget it.

[@CimyrRazely]

I have launched myself out of arenas more times than I can count.

[@TheNN]

Look, all I know about Reaper is that it gets a tactical nuke at lvl 90, that's all I needed.

[@TMEthan]

Black Mage: Am I a joke to you? >:V

[@JS-kr8fs]

DRK: "What are you?" RPR: "I'm you, but like with voidsent...and people see the abbreviation of my class, and can't help but wonder if I understand consent...?"

I tried making my Reaper loadout have a Bloodborne glamour, but then I remember I'm a Viera and I'm allergic to hats

[@Ghostel3591]

One day... One day they will adapt at least some old outfits to include holes for Viera ears.

[@overdrivedrinker8284]

Reaper’s relic gear hat still works on Viera, and it’s perfect for bloodborne cosplay imo

[@rabidsmiles]

Everyone else's reaper are DARK and EDGY and mine runs around in a pastel pink ballgown, looking like a walking cupcake.

[@fluffykitten077]

Totally "You are a reaper because you're "dark" and "edgy". I'm a reaper because I dared myself to befriend even a voidsent. We are not the same"

[@nikolaigovorov9278]

Mine wears a sweater. I mean, the Void looks cold. Using its powers must be quite chilly.

[@VentrexTheXVth]

Full shiny plate for mine with the Sickle of the Round. Who says our Void friend is emo.

[@Arkansym]

I wear a farmer outfit with mine, because scythe is a BTN weapon. Complete with floral straw hat and everything.

[@VentrexTheXVth]

@@Xiccy845 yep. Garleian farmers got pissed and went so far Emo he summoned a demon

[@doragonsoruja]

I feel personally attacked and completely understood at the same time

[@Aitherea]

the endings of your videos ALWAYS slap xD

[@shamblingabby]

"I forgot soul sow" is my entire life as a reaper main.

[@doodle_kun]

GOD DAMN IT. possibly one of my favorite animated shorts u made , the intense red glow pose was worth it

[@BirdCyclops]

thank you so much!!

[@alittlespice1665]

this is so accurate it scary down to the aura playing it 😂

[@Bayonette]

Don't forget to yell "Communio" at the top of your lungs.

[@Arkansym]

Reaper is the one dps I just cant bring myself to have fun with, but their rotation looks cool as heck, especially once they unlock Communion, and I love having them in Raids because Crest of Time Returned makes those DoTs and top offs just a little bit nicer to manage.

[@jroberts2nd]

As an Au Ra reaper who forgets Soulsow I feel attacked by this.

[@PC-Doodle]

Forgetting your skills is just part of the class

[@creakycorvid7568]

as a reaper main i felt so much of this

[@dragkigamer7944]

As a reaper main i have a bad habit of forgetting to use soul sow at the start sometimes or i forget to use it

[@1337penguinman]

I mostly main tanks. I have to turn on tank stance every dungeon. I assigned soulsow to the same button. I still forget it.

[@GRIEVER8]

i think reaper is funny because the wol has zero need to form a pact with a voidsent so your just subjecting yourself to soul sucking for no reason

[@Corrderio]

After the Eden raid storyline I'm pretty certain the WoL is brain damaged

[@dusknerd_]

0:16 how dare you call me out like this, remembering things is hard okay 😞

[@waffle-234]

You have two of them,how do you forget *me as a red mage forgetting to use my melee skills*

[@reaver8216]

Completely accurate and I love it.

[@killla4life2000]

the soulsow happens to me basically every time, except I'll activate it then just not remember to ever use it, by the time I do remember the pack of enemies/boss will already be dead basically

[@Delmania01]

“Forgot soulshroud”. “Forgot dps buff”. Man I thought I was the only one.

[@ZeraSeraphim]

My WoL Normally: Hi! I'm Venusiel! It's nice to meet you. Let's do our best and have fun, okay? My WoL possessed by Reaper Avatar: I AM VENGEANCE, I AM THE CHILD OF THE DARK LORD, AND I WILL RIP OUT YOUR LUNGS AND WEAR THEM AS A TEA COZY.

[@BlackgameChile]

Wait, WE HAVE A DOT?!

[@BirdCyclops]

its a "dot" in the way that the debuff increases the damage you do to the boss

[@vindurza]

Reaper is currently my main melee dps though Viper is gonna change that lol

[@DuskXIIII]

At this point, what with my soul being inhabited by no less than five separate entities... What's another few tenants? I can only hope the Voidsent Avatar will at least take his shoes off first.

[@SpookyRobinson]

i want to go Spooky next! awesome vid Adan!!!

[@BirdCyclops]

The spooky king! thank you man!

[@ShuyaKenshin]

Don't forget Soul Slice/Scythe being at max charges for too long constantly

[@walwal6449]

0:16 felt this to the core... like literally was zoning out in an ARR alliance raid doing my very simple rotation and then realised too late i forgot to apply my dot this whole time LOL

[@otakuwamasama566]

All us second commenters HATE firsts

[@kaz6556]

:o(

[@crypto66]

One of the reasons I play Reaper is so I can shout *RENGEKI* and have it fit thematically. I also main NIN and DRK. Bonus points for those who get the reference. "Omg I forgot Soulsow" hit too hard. Even worse that I still forget about Harvest Moon even if I have it up.

[@moii3345]

And here's lalafell in canary yellow raincoat with a cyber-scyth, just moving the lawn.

[@ZurichiVonVorst]

I have a friend just like this... OH and KZbin COMMENTS and Adan. Bard is max leveled and on the ban list for all my friends, Who knew playing music megalovania non stop would do that. Next class?

[@pumpkinheadx3715]

Reaper killed my samurai, i just love how it setup~ and sage is also my other main xD rip sch for me

[@Valswife]

I love it!!!

[@DevilSeiji]

NOOOOOOO T.T 0:13 it me. Everytime. Every. Time.

[@LightbladeRiulo]

Meanwhile theres me who made my reaper glam the exact opposite of dark and edgy and people get so confused I dont act like I'm blasting linkin park 24/7. Doubly so since I'm a Dark Knight main.

[@KenanVonKaiser]

Ow The Edge!

[@Anxxero]

i love this so much 😂

[@Snowyqwq]

My reaper experience is after several MONTHS still: forget to soulsow before the fight,so instead of using harvest moon you just stand there,in your burst phase,hardcasting soulsow! xD

[@That1Smug]

We do be Edging in these parts

[@overdrivedrinker8284]

I main reaper cuz I’m just a huge bloodborne fan. I even named my WoL after Gehrman cuz that old man is the GOAT

[@MrGamerCaptain]

hot reaper

[@kaylads]

That arcane crest timing hurt me becuase i do the same thing way too often

[@jadenaddams3674]

Just remember: Technically, Reapers are charity workers, harvesting aether for a poor, unfortunate voidsent who is unable to create their own. We feed starving children!!!

[@Synthric]

This dude doesn't even have the RP tag on him. That RPR is actually this cringe! (Good job :D)

My favorite part is when he said ITS REAPIN TIME and reaped all over the place.

[@chromekittyking5086]

Um sir, you forgot about making every move a macro with alternating chat dialogue. If people can see the warnings from other people in extremes you don't have enough edgy dialogue attached your rotation.

[@Crispierbug]

I had a dark knight in a roulette who had a chat macro for everything expect for unmend, 1-2-3 melee combo and 1-2 aoe combo, the chat macros played every single time for everything else including every use of the blackest night.

reject edge, become dapper instead

Real RPRs know Whorl/Shadow of Death isn't a DoT, but a damage buff for yourself. PRETENDERRRRRR

This class was such a redundancy, was dark knight not enough to slake the lust of emo boys over?
