Variant
Overview
The R-Reaper King is a large carnivorous variant creature from the Genesis: Part 2 event. It is passively tamed and can be carried by Tusoteuthis for transport across vast distances. This variant excels in combat support and node control due to its unique abilities and high damage output.
Spawn Locations
R-Reaper King does not currently spawn on any ARK: Survival Ascended map, or spawn data is not yet available.
The R-Reaper King is tamed passively, requiring no knockout or torpor management. Feed it Raw Mutton for the fastest taming; Raw Prime Meat also works well. About 26 units of Raw Mutton are needed at level 150 on official rates. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Drops & Harvest Resources
Killing the R-Reaper King yields Hide and Raw Meat. The Hatchet yields the most Hide, while the Pick maximizes Raw Meat harvest.
Estimates based on game-extracted data (weights, quantities, harvest multipliers, damage type chains). Each harvest event independently rolls each resource - higher weight = higher drop chance. Actual yields vary with RNG.
Damage Resistances
The R-Reaper King has a +200% weakness to spike walls, making them extremely effective for defense. It also takes +120% damage from Instant HurtDinos and +55% more from metal melee attacks. Avoid using Mining Drill Harvest, as it deals no damage.
