Good pairings
These are suggestions based on the developer's and in-game ability descriptions, not on measured stats.
- Medusa: Medusa's stun holds regular zombies while Reaper's bleed works.
- Gluer: Gluer's slow keeps zombies in Reaper's range for longer.

How to get Reaper
Summon banner (5★, rare)
Units are summoned with Crayons on the summon banner in the mall lobby. Multi-summons of up to 50 are available, and players report that multi-summons do not raise your odds. Every summon can also roll a Shiny version: 1% normally, or 3% with the Shiny Hunter game pass (499 Robux), from player level 10. The VIP pass (399 Robux) gives 10% off summons. Free Crayons come from codes while they are active, and the beginner's guide lists other early sources.
Levelling, traits and evolution
Like every unit, Reaper levels up with XP from matches, Pencils and Stasis Pods (which train a unit over time while you are away). Players report that Stamps raise the level cap. Traits are painted on with Paint Pots and can be buffs such as damage, range, boss damage or cash, or debuffs. Stat Chips and Super Chips reroll a unit's stats, and Gear from your Pencil Case can be equipped. Open the unit in game to see the materials its evolution needs.
Reaper evolution: Community players say the evolved Reaper gains an "undead" perk. Requirements TBD.
