Notes & Advice Notes If the player is hit by any of the above attacks, small skulls will float around the player. During this period, the player's HP, Mana, and Stamina will be rapidly drained. May not be targeted by Ice Spear. Advanced magic such as Thunder's charges will miss if it uses Grim Reaper Windmill. It may be difficult for melee users due to its Grim Reaper Windmill. The G13 version has a slower AI than the normal one. It may instantly retaliate with Grim Reaper Windmill for every time it is hit by Shock. If it is defeated while it is still using Grim Reaper Windmill it will automaticly use it before it drops dead. Capable of being stunned, being unable to retaliate. Advice Powerful single-hit skills are effective due to its high defense. Using Windmill or Smash is not recommended due to large animation delays that may cause you to get hit. If a large amount of damage is done, the Grim Reaper may become stunned. When a white ghastly aura appears around the Reaper, it is stunned. Using ranged attacks with a spirited or upgraded Leather Long Bow is fairly effective, since it allows you to keep your distance. Stick near the Grim Reaper's sides and, preferably, back, as they are safe from its horizontal and vertical attacks. However, it still moves around frequently, so focus on its movements. When it uses Grim Reaper Windmill (signified by raising its scythe in the air and spinning around), run away in a straight line to get away from it. Using pets that have a melee-only AI is very effective, but be sure to stock up on Phoenix Feathers. Giants are capable of using Knuckles and a pet with a melee-only AI set to do a no-skill wail. Due to the rapid hits landing so frequently on the Grim Reaper, he will most likely be unable to use skills or teleport away. The character should avoid using skills, as this could break the combo. Keeping the Elsinore Ghosts alive by luring the Grim Reaper away with Ranged Attack or magic allows the player to use Charge on one of the ghosts to evade Grim Reaper Windmill. An easy way for melee characters to defeat the Grim Reaper is to dual-wield Daggers and hit it repeatedly with normal attacks. When it begins to execute its horizontal or vertical attack, run behind his back. This particularly works well on the Generation 13 boss. Hitting the Grim Reaper with Spear of Light will prevent him from attacking momentarily. By rotating pets and having them spam basic attack until the Grim Reaper drills down to use Grim Reaper Windmill it is possible to spam Smash and Magnum Shot on it without it ever aggro-ing the player. Grim Reaper Windmill will cancel when the pet is desummoned though the animation for it will still play. Using a hit and run strategy with lance charge while mounted is another way of defeating the Grim Reaper.
