 ==History==
 *Reapers were given a dragging attack in [[0.31]]. Their damage was slightly decreased to compensate.
 *Prior to [[0.29]], scythes were their own type of weapon instead of reskinned [[halberd]]s. This gave reapers slightly higher damage but slightly lower accuracy.

 ==Useful Info==
-'''Reapers''' are [[tier-2 demon]]s armed with randomly [[brand]]ed [[scythe]]s. They lack magic, but have decent lasting power and their [[reaching]] melee attacks can deal heavy damage and drag you backwards. They can normally be found in [[the Abyss]], [[Pandemonium]], and the [[Hell]]s (most often in [[the Iron City of Dis]] and [[Tartarus]]), but they also appear on some [[Depths]] floors. Some monsters can also summon them through the [[Summon Greater Demon]] spell.
