![]() ![]() Reapers can contribute to ambushes without the possibility of being exposed via their Claymore secondary weapon, which acts as a potent environmental explosive that the Reaper can shoot at to detonate without having to make a discovery test. That being said, enemy detection radius increases significantly after attacking even if the detection test is passed (although some skills can mitigate this effect). Unlike Concealment, attacking while in Shadow does not necessarily break concealment instead, it has a 50% chance of being exposed that rises to 80% should attacks be made following an initial successful test to stay hidden. While in Shadow, a Reaper gains a 50% mobility boost and can only be detected by enemies if they are within one space of the Reaper (or if the Reaper is flanked). The lack of innate Squadsight and lower damage output of the Vektor Rifle mean they do not replace Sharpshooters outright, but they can compensate through the greater flexibility afforded to them by their abilities and are superb candidates for scouting through Fog of War. The Reaper combines the superior range of the Sharpshooter and the stealth tactics of the Ranger, further enhanced by Shadow, its enhanced form of Concealment. In 2035, the Reaper called Elena "Outrider" Dragunova was sent to scout out a gene therapy clinic based on a tip from the Skirmishers despite the distrust between the two factions, their information yielded the vital discovery that the Commander was still alive and in ADVENT custody, which would ultimately lead in the XCOM mission that would see the Commander liberated, and a crippling blow dealt to the ADVENT network.įollowing the defeat of ADVENT, the Reapers helped to wipe out the remaining servants of the Elders in anticipation that they would soon be able to leave the shadows and rejoin the new world. Such practices tended to lead to make them seem peculiar to others, which was complicated further by the Reapers' inclination to work alone. At some point after this, he met Central and became the leader of the Reapers after the faction's founder was killed by the Chosen known as the Hunter (who was himself formerly an accomplished member of the Reapers prior to his capture and painstaking "enhancement" by the Elders).ĭuring the occupation, the Reapers became renowned for their skill at killing aliens while remaining undetected, as well as their habit of using their bodies as an unconventional food source. A native of Russia, Volk moved to Alaska as a refugee during the alien invasion and joined the Reapers soon after the surrender of the world's governments to the aliens. ![]()
