Fix the way to get a Reaper

Yeah I don’t like the last update where you have to get parts to spawn a Reaper because by killing the bosses the tyrants you decrease your Threat Level in that region and therefore new tyrants won’t spawn. It takes forever to hunt down robots to destroy the rebuild your Threat Level so new tyrants will spawn and then as soon as you kill one your Threat Level drops dramatically and it’s boring the game used to be fun when you can spawn a Reaper several times a day if you wanted to and now it’s just it’s gotten to be boring.

You’re wrong.
Tyrants are now independent of the region score and level.

You just need 200 codes (either from FNIX rivals for a reaper or from soviet rivals for a vulture) and a lvl3 FNIX base to be able to spawn a tyrant.

Destroy the shield generators of the base, enter the hatch (indicated by a blue beam) and select the tyrant at the terminal.

You may spawn a reaper and a vulture at the same time and spawn a new one as soon as the previous one is destroyed, as long as you have enough of those codes.

Don’t forget to add that you can only spawn reapers and vultures where you can spawn bases. Limited to only 3 regions. The other regions are like before there was a reaper, rivals only and region points still matter for leveling up rivals. Then forced to destroy them for the tokens. Players asking for map expansion but get a map reduction instead and less choice on where to fight the bosses.

what is a reaper and how do I fight one? its pretty easy to kill titans if you knock off their weapons, and harvesters are slow turning. you just stay behind them and they cant do anything. the Russian “crab” on 4 legs is even easier to kill. the Russian drones are vulnerable to 50 BMG in their thrusters. essentially im getting bored of spamming the 5th tier klaucke 19 on everything with an extended mag. I need a challenge. 8k rounds of 9mm FMJ and an iron sighted 50 BMG rifle is getting boring.

I have not tried this, but just got this idea. FNIX bases used to reset when you leave the area.
So when you get FNIX base to spawn, you could destroy to point where you can access Reaper / Vulture spawn.
Do not destroy the command center. Use data to locate boss, and leave. This way you should always have 1 base to spawn boss on command pretty much. Everything else can be destroyed to get more data. Rivals will spawn any territory and data to collect from them.

It’s an improved tank.
It is very much stronger than everything else, has shield generators and a superweapon.
You can only have one at a time on the map.

Here are more detailled informations:

The only changes I would like to see are that the Reaper and Vulture don’t appear area specific, but randomly appear in all areas when they are spawned, and they are also not tied to the area where they were spawned.

Or be able to spawn one independently in each area. End Game is a bit too safe for me.

No I don’t think I’m wrong. Whenever I kill a rival my score goes down

I meant rivals, not Tyrants

Yes that’s correct, but it has no impact on tyrants (reaper and vulture). It’s not really important any more.

The region points are still needed to spawn rivals, to get tokens, to spawn tyrants, NO?

Did they change the way you have to destroy machines to gain points to spawn rivals? I don’t see where that has happened. Please explain how you spawn rivals now without regional threat points.
The lack of threat points also seems to affect bases spawning too. So how has that changed where the regional points don’t matter?

also Reaper use to count as 1 Rival slot, ( 7 Rivals + 1 Reaper ), :thinking: question ? I have, is it 6 Rivals + 1 Vulture + 1 Reaper in new updates

They still count as rivals as far as I know.

To be honest, I don’t look at my region score.
I fight machines and get new rivals or bases “all the time” as long as it’s possible.

I need to test this out myself later :thinking: many questions I have that only me doing experiments with it will answer every nook and cranny on the subject, Also, because I think, areas that can no longer get a reaper will stay stuck at 7 rivals, unless I was just unlucky not getting the 8th Rival to spawn in the north coast region, when normally a reaper would have spawned but, New Rules, no reaper spawn because of score, but, no 8th Rival was spawning either

And what makes it not possible?

I have all 3 of my regions that were 21+ region levels to spawn a reaper, drop to almost zero after performing all the tasks needed to spawn both titans in those same regions. Which while the region points were high enough, the tasks were easy to do. Now the region points are close to zero and no rivals or bases. Nothing will spawn till I destroy enough machines and build the regional points back up.

Please note, I learned how to spawn rivals and level them up before there was the map expansion DLC and a reaper. It’s how you acquired schematics and exp weapons. The introduction of the reaper made players start looking at regional levels and points and how to increase them. I don’t see where any of that has changed.
