Reaper has two good builds: Valkyrie and Viper’s.
The Valkyrie build is a tanky power-based build. Vitality also increases your shroud capacity and we don’t need the precision that would come from Berserker’s, so we take Valkyrie instead. You’d be using weapons like axe, offhand dagger, focus, warhorn and greatsword. We’re taking Death Perception and Reaper’s Onslaught to give you a huge power boost whenever you enter shroud.
The Viper build is a condition-heavy build. It deals more damage than the Valkyrie build, but it’s much squishier. This build deals most of its’ damage with Deathly Chill, which adds extra bleeds onto dagger 4, greatsword 4 and 5, shroud 3 and 5. Most of your damage will come from using whirl finishers (shroud 4, gs 2) inside an ice field. You can make an ice field by using your shroud 5. This build is very potent, but if you’re not landing your finishers in the right field you’ll have some trouble.
(It’s worth noting that the recent patch may change these builds. I would keep an eye on the Quantify website @ http://qtfy.eu to see when they update the builds!)
