* The Reaper can spawn on any difficulty on any playthrough (I just spawned him on Very Easy in NG, and in my 1st dungeon, I defeated him as level 24)!! Because of this and because he takes so long to kill at this level, he may be good for farming lines for HRF, havent tested yet though.

* Engaging enemies DOES NOT affect the meter! * Exiting the floor by any means while you can hear the chains resets the meter, and opening the 22nd chest resets the meter, NOTHING ELSE!! In fact, the only thing that resets the meter is opening 21 chests consecutively,

* Nothing resets the meter, leaving TV world, using Goho-M etc, NOTHING. ( I tested this by opening a Gold Chest as my 21st, after I could hear the chains). However, Gold chests DO NOT reset the meter as almost all players believe. * Gold chests will not spawn the Reaper because they cannot contain a Shadow. * Opening a chest at the exact moment you hear the chains rattling DOES NOT guarantee that the Reaper will spawn from that chest (if it does and to the person who this happened, its just coincidence)! If you are lucky and the 22nd chest spawns the Reaper then in any other circumstances, that chest would have spawned a shadow! * The 22nd must be a red chest that has a chance containing a shadow. * After opening 21 chests, you will hear chains, the 22nd chest MAY spawn the Reaper. If there was such a informative post, i would have likely saved hours messing about with the.Reaper spawning mechanics.Īnyway, i will state here a fail proof guide, but first i want to clear up the myths surrounding the Reaper spawn that i have tested myself. "Basically, there is info scattered all over the net regarding the Reaper, and none of it really accurately describes how it spawns, what affects it, resets it etc. Its long so I apologise in advance but there are still people out there confused and this will seriously help Okay I finally found an answer and it solved my issue completely. I've been doing this for hours and I don't know what else to do.ĭoes anybody know anything I'm doing wrong that might stop the chains from sounding?īefore I do the count for the 20 chests I always walk back to the fifth floor and use a Goho-M to make sure that the chest count has definitely been refreshed. Know 100% I've done 20 chests before saving and going to the fifth floor but the chains never sound on the 21st chest. Use a Goho-M and save your game and repeat the process again.Open the 2nd chest and hope it's a Reaper chest.There will be 2 chests on this floor, open one and you should hear the telltale sign of chains rattling.Go to Yukiko Castle one more time and quick-travel to the 5th floor.Repeat steps 4 and 5 till you have gone through a total of 5 times (20 total chests, no more no less).Hit square and go back to the entrance.They won't hurt the method, just slow it down. Open all 4 chests as quick as possible, ignore fights.If there are just 3 go back to the hub and then back to the Castle to check again. Enter level 1 and check the map to ensure there are 4 treasures, usually there are but once and a while there are just 3.ģa.
