Opinion about Reaper Prime (build it or not)

Hi there.

Since very long time no see the Reaper prime. Finally and by accident (I mean opened vaulted relics) and go the SET! :inlove:

But I am very undecided if it is the best to build it and enjoy, or if should I sell it (not sure if worth 150 plats people are asking on the market, probably it will happen same as Scindo prime "free on twitch prime, i guess).

if you are going to suggest me to keep the reaper prime., what instance do you suggest ?

I enjoy using it with Nekros Prime for flavor reasons, but it objectively is not a very strong weapon compared to most other high level weapons. I can show you my build if you would like. 

The most important part is if you find it fun to use. I would suggest you build it and try it out. If you like it, keep it. If not, sell it (after you get the mastery because it'll be hard to get back)

I got a riven for it, shreds pretty well

I'm going to give a try. But I really hope there's alternative to this kinda of stance ie: that I use on Dual Kamas Prime "Crossing Snakes" - I don't feel as an efficient stance for this Melee, it "only" cause damage in front of the warframe and not that good controlling a crowd (at least as much as Othos prime), in my experience.

Dual Kamas uses Dual Sword stances, try Swirling Tiger on it. 

Reaper Prime is a Scythe. Different stances entirely.

Dual Kamas are dual swords and use dual swords stane (new , good ones,are coming with PoE). Reaper Prime is a Scythe and uses scythe stances.

Until they give Kaszaz the PvE treatment, we will be left wanting for a high-tier scythe.

I've used the Anku (more like a giant armor-piercing pickaxe) and have high-disposition Rivens on both my Hate and Reaper Prime.

Scythes were recently buffed, but only to feasible levels.

They are still only mid-tier weapons.

You will miss out on a lot if you go by loud opinions on the forum on what's good or not.

WF is about levelling weapons. 150 plat can come from anywhere, I wouldn't sell the one copy i had of a weapon for plat. They all have their value in some way

It's not a good weapon, but that's because all pickaxes in this game suck.

Make it if you want the MR, or if you want to use it for it's kinda okay looks.

This. 

I mean I really enjoy the reaper, by syths in general could really do with status or crit buffs. They're currently weaker than machetes. And I should know, my single Forma Machete wraith can rip through a 150 bombard with the right stance easy

On of the stances has a forward spin thats easy to preform. I'd have to look up which one it is, but it shouldn't be too hard to find
