I don't have the heroic version of Reap. So there's another strategy I am using to pretty great success. I've noticed some KZbinrs using the 2nd rune of vital strike. I tried it myself and it worked wonders. Reason being that skill does a huge amount of damage and has an almost instant animation. So what you could do is target the arm your hunters aren't targeting, shadow step the dragon's skill and instantly kill the arm as the hunters kill the other arm, breaking the boss. It's so easy to time because it kills the arm from full almost every single time. (30k attack + heroic rune). I was able to get 3 shadow steps breaks on the boss in the first minute without any retries today. I think reap is better if you're not that good at timing shadow steps. But if your hunters got enough damage to instant burst one arm, vital strike is better because it allows you to have full control over when the boss break since you're the one breaking the 2nd arm. And from my experience, you actually get more breaks over the fight this way, so more damage from your hunters too.

can i give you a little advice? i do love Reap and i use it (even tho my friends dont like it lol) but there's also another good skill for light dragon to get shadowsteps and dmg (at least for me) Last time i used the dagger toss skill with the light rune (yeah i have 2 legendary runes there so the dmg is much higher) but basically i would dodge and use the skill right away. Its so strong that it destroys the arm instantly as soon as you dodged, so you'll have time to shadowstep Indeed Reap is a safer option, but since i run elemental weakness, i find the dagger toss skill better for the light dmg
