[Lost Ark] The Comprehensive Moon Reaper Guide (Lunar Voice)

[@OtakuCreations]

Man I rarely comment under people videos, but this time u deserved it. This video is literally the best guide I ever seen. Your chill voice and music. I feel the vibes from NieR and Persona games. Amazing video!

[@giraffeorganic]

i second this, very detailed!

[@MrXXXblackheartXXX]

Dude u took all my words

[@prodigaloutcast]

I can't agree more with the commentor right below me (Txmek's). This guide is so crisp. And you actually start with the interesting stuff (core abilities and the class identitiy). Instead of 30 mins of tripod and engraving discussion before getting into the skills.

[@AlphaFrameOfficial]

I appreciate the extremely high effort and quality guide. There is literally no other guide for moon reaper on this level.

[@shadowhitman47]

I've been watching so many guides and interviews but this one show me all the numbers behind it. Great job on making this thorough guide. Thanks a bunch. Now i can confidently say that I will do a Spec/Swift Lunar

[@LiZzZzZArDDDD]

Dude, this is the best Guide i have ever seen. So chilli musicbackground, nice speakvoice and good information stuff. Well done.

[@daniellider6190]

This is the best guide I've ever seen in my life! the second there was a question in my mind, you were answering it in the next second.

[@DuyTran-mo8uc]

Tons of guide came out recently but this one takes the cake! Thank you for sharing

[@amerythh]

Perfect guide. It actually answered all the question i had in mind about moon spec/swift, spec/scrit and skill rotation/decision making which skill to use. Thank you very much for this great vid, keep it up!

[@AstonMartinStig]

Thanks dude, I wanted to go spec/swift but thought it was gimp. But you proved with math that it is not gimped. If anyone clowns on me, I will refer them to this video.

[@matiasdiaz7717]

What a Guide Man, incredible Job and really Helpfull !, i was waiting for this since you told in stream about it!

[@yudracialll]

Great guide man! Been watching your reaper vids for while now. I still think you have one of the best gameplays for moon out there, and you definitely show what a skilled reaper looks like! Keep up the vids man!

[@Zetsuei13]

Great guide, thank you for your time and effort; enjoyed the format and pace, was very informative and concise.

[@Corusame]

I always find myself coming back to this guide. Its clear and concise and easily one of favourite guides in Lost Ark. I was wondering if you could do a guide on how to best fight Prokel with moon reaper, it would be greatly appreciated.

[@got2beable]

Wow! What a wonderful Video!!! Nice editing and love the explanation with the math included. What would be nice is when u talk and have the ingame sound to loud, its hard to understand what u saying. Maybe im just wrong because i heard that without headphones and just listen and watch it on my phone speaker before bed lmao. But love the chill vibes and very very informative with such nice editing shown so many icons with the names and Rotations all in a nice speed to follow. Thank you so much. Instant subbed

[@SpectralVessaliux]

I actually do think the in-game sound is a tad bit loud. Will keep in mind for future vids!

[@Alone-jt6qk]

very good guide, it solved my doubts regarding spec/crit vs spec/swift, thank you very much

[@IIBatoII]

Very good video .The format was great . Information very precise .And good tips . Thank you for your effort .

[@hen913]

What a great video!!!! Ahh I went with spec crit and had my 3 accessories pre bought over a week ago but now I kind of wish I went spec swift. I only feel a TINY bit slow sometimes but I feel like in lobbies with Yearning that won't be an issue at all.

[@georgecatalin1]

Clean video. All you need to know. Btw, can you pls tell me which skins you using on the reaper for "Engravings" part at 22:32? Thanks!

[@SpectralVessaliux]

That's the 4th Anniversary costume that KR recently got.

[@OrenjiNikku]

ayy I was looking forward to this one! thanks for the guide Kareninna looking hot as always!

[@kamiumitv]

thank you for an awesome videos. I rarely leave cmt but man i gotta do something here. Best guide hands down

[@iScotchX]

i started playing reaper some days sago after not playing lost ark for about 8 months and i see i did a lot wrong absolutely love that guide best ive seen so far tyvm im trying to build mine like you did ! :) cya on twitch

[@azncowman]

Amazing video, thank you so much!

[@Mui3210]

best guide i have seen. Great Job !

[@tmoney2261]

Great guide. I was hoping that you dropped one after learning from your reaper play.

[@yellowboat825]

You are my new reaper guy. Keep up the great work.

[@ec5400]

Thank you for the amazing guide spectral! And don't worry, with all the movement skills i will never touch the floor! xD

[@jarrow3720]

Give this man a raise. Awesome vid.

[@Dead_Hitori]

Thanks I was playing moon wrong, I would always go into persona mode when the red bar is filled

[@exorigran]

Great job, congratulations

[@MrPewson]

10/10 guide, good stuff.

[@Narcomoeba1]

Nice guide meat!

[@jakeg3782]

whats a good alternative for shadow trap? i hate the back flip. and w/c tripods

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Either Spinning Dagger or Spirit Catch.

[@AdamJensenReal]

Great guide thank you! I notice some less dmg without any parts from Death entropy set, guess i need to wait a bit to get some pieces and than full set :) I like the reaper very much and its not so bad glass cannon as everyone said. But for sure you need to know well bosses/guardians and need more skill at the class itself.

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Yep, Entropy classes get a noticeable spike in damage values when you get 2 piece of it. By playing Reaper extremely safely, you'll basically never die due to the insane mobility and repositioning. But by playing safe, you're losing a lot of DPS, especially so on a Moon Reaper. And unlike true burst classes, Moon Reaper is still very much constant semi-burst DPS, so uptime is very important. This is why, as you mentioned, it's essential to know the bosses' attack patterns and windows to push out DPS efficiently, especially so on a class like Reaper.

[@diablocody866]

Hello Spectral, this value (1 Spec = 0.04291%) is valid for all classes that use Spec in their Builds or if not, would you have a table/graph with all classes?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Nope, it's different for every class. The value mentioned in the video is specifically for Reaper only. I do not have a table/graph on hand.

[@diablocody866]

@@SpectralVessaliux thanks for the reply and keep up the videos, they are really important.

[@Handler_1ne]

Thanks for the vid it was super helpful !! I just had a question about making a moon reaper main. In a lot of your video comment sections you suggest playing thirst if you want to make reaper main. I wanted to ask if it really is that bad to make a moon reaper main. I don’t quite enjoy the piano play style as much, and I wanted to know if making a moon reaper is something that is highly not recommended. Thanks !!

[@SpectralVessaliux]

When prog-ing through raids, it's definitely more beneficial to play as Thirst. You just provide more to the team and staying alive is way easier. It's also easier to DPS as a Thirst when you're still unfamiliar with the raid itself. However, if you really dislike the playstyle and want to play Moon, that's fine as well. But you'd probably have to put in more effort to learn the boss' attacks patterns and play safe while you're still learning. Only start greeding on DPS cycles when you're comfortable with the raid.

[@Handler_1ne]

@@SpectralVessaliux Thank you for the in depth explanation, I'll have to think more about my choice then !! Thanks again, have a good day.

[@VibesEdits]

I liked the background music

[@Rifuhl]

What is the background music you're using? It's very nice!

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Song of the Lazenith! It comes with the Elgacia patch.

[@makingcoffee5816]

Great guide but I was wondering whether I should take 1752 spec (100 on bracelet) or 1744 spec (92 on bracelet with 53 swift) for my spec swift moon reaper ?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

I would go with the higher spec bracelet. Depends on the other lines that you get though.

[@makingcoffee5816]

@@SpectralVessaliux thankyou, the 100 spec has wedge but that’s all just 2 lines. The 92 spec 53 swift has 1 more line but it’s not great

[@SpectralVessaliux]

@@makingcoffee5816 I would go with the 100 Spec and Wedge.

[@MrPewson]

Hey, got a question about stats on moon reaper spec/swift. What do you consider the sweet spot of spec on it? Right now im running a budget build 4x3 without adrenaline unfortunately :( with 1630~ spec and it seems fine but Brelshaza is coming out soon and I dont know what bracelet should I be aiming for. Im considering swift/crit bracelet to help a bit with the lack of adrenaline and lvl 5 tripods (these are hot and expensive for now).

[@SpectralVessaliux]

There is honestly no "sweet spot" for spec, as higher is always better. Lower spec simply means using more wealth runes whereas higher means you can swap out some wealth runes for other utility ones such as Bleed & Purification. As for bracelet, Moon Reapers generally only need a really high spec line; the other stat generally doesn't matter as much. However, seeing that you are missing Adrenaline, you do want to get a spec + crit bracelet.

[@Mui3210]

Hey hey what bracelet stats you recommand ? spec crit ? or spec swift ? ( i got a spec crit neck & curse doll)

[@SpectralVessaliux]

The most important thing is getting a high spec roll on your bracelet. The other stat honestly doesn't matter as much, but Swift would be ideal, yes.

[@Kenjamin]

3:12 I was wondering why Lumerus started randomly twerking XDD

[@Leslaliun]

where's the song come from? i swear i listened before

[@SpectralVessaliux]

It's the Song of the Lazenith. It comes with the Elgacia update.

[@sexcannonmusic284]

I'm a sinner , i use 4 red skills on a moon reaper bcs i rly like the red lightning descend skill :P

[@jurka978]

Man great video, I love reaper and I was sure to switch to moon reaper but it is really that dmg increase so low? For all that moon have to sacrifice it seems to me it is not a big win vs thirst. I like both playstyles and yet I am not 100% sure which engrave to select :D Does someone have the same thoughts?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

The damage difference isn't that big, yes. It honestly boils down to which playstyle you prefer, that's what's more important.

[@sexcannonmusic284]

Also , i really like your characters voice, is it the, what seems to be the ayaya voice at first when you're in character creation, option 4 ?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Nope, this is the default voice (voice 1).

[@sexcannonmusic284]

@@SpectralVessaliux oh ok , why do i feel like mine sounds different xD anyway , thanks for telling me

[@jiggydenso7721]

is it possible to use cursed doll instead of adrenaline for spec/swift? I might have made a huge mistake 😅

[@SpectralVessaliux]

I definitely wouldn't recommend this. You will be lacking crit rate, and that's huge because you have +110% crit damage with Entropy Lv2 and KBW.

[@sexcannonmusic284]

Can't believe they called them Swoop skills xD

[@koyhyun117]

Big fan

[@strainz90]

Nice guide but i have a question my runes are similar u runes but i dont have 2 purple can i play with 1gold 1 purple 2 blue and 1 green rune ?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Yep, you can definitely play without 2 purple wealth runes. It helps if you do have it, but it's not a necessity.

[@vicentefarias4490]

thank you so much!!

[@VibesEdits]

Whats the best 5x3+1 for Swift/Spec Reaper?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

For the +1, Ether Predator would probably be the best. If you happen to get a lot of crit from your bracelet though, you could opt for Adrenaline 1 instead. But you would probably need high crit roll as well as Precision for that to be worth.

[@korogami7454]

hi i was wondering which voice you use for reaper, the one i use sounds unsatisfying compared to yours

[@SpectralVessaliux]

I'm using the default voice (voice 1).

[@page8301]

"Performing any action or running out of gauge breaks the Reaper out of persona state." Not entirely correct, you can use your dash(spacebar) without breaking stealth.

[@acey8274]

Im using crit/spec rn but im using adrenaline instead of cursed doll is that ok

[@SpectralVessaliux]

You're gonna heavily overcrit with that setup, so I wouldn't recommend it.

[@acey8274]

@@SpectralVessaliux Whats the most important engraving in order?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Grudge = Lunar = Ambush > CD = KBW. For CD vs KBW, KBW has a slightly higher damage gain overall, but this only applies when you have Lv5 on your crit tripods.

[@exorigran]

Do you have the preset of your char btw?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Yep! It's posted on the LoALook EN discord server.

[@Assesino4408]

Would having adrenaline swapped out for KBW be ok?

[@SpectralVessaliux]

Wait, which build do you mean? Because Spec/Swift build uses both Adrenaline and KBW.

[@Assesino4408]

@@SpectralVessaliux say if you go spec crit and run grudge, CD, Adrenaline,ambush and lunar

[@SpectralVessaliux]

@@Assesino4408 You don't run Adrenaline as a Spec/Crit Moon Reaper; you would severely overcrit on your red skills.

Are you Vykas' brother? Tryin to seduce me the whole video. Great info though.

[@ProcrastinateWGames]

One thing you forgot to mension between spec/crit vs spec/swif is if you have any crit syn in your party your pretty much are spec/crit + swif. and if sup has the crit braclet. your even closer. So, you can be spec/ swift + Crit in parties. Beside this, I think your guide is awesome keep up the good work.
