Keep exploring the floor you are currently in to find it. The Reaper is a Level 85 enemy, but you can defeat it even if your team is at level 60. Below are some tips to help you defeat the Reaper.
- Letting the Reaper ambush the Phantom Thieves can help it take only one turn instead of two
- It has no weakness and also has no resistance and immunity to any effect, and will attack with only elemental attacks.
- Using the Makarakarn spell will enable the Reaper to use Megidolaeon, which won’t be effective if the barrier is active.
- This will cause the Reaper to charge up during its turn, giving you enough time to attack it.
- It will also create an infinite loop, and the Reaper will not use any other elemental attack if you use Makarakarn.
- Using Thermopylae can help buff your party’s attack, defense, and agility skills.
- Use the Mediarahan spell for healing your party. Marakukaja can also help increase the party’s defense for three turns.
