Power Reaper is a strong and solid Power DPS build, featuring decent burst and a large melee cleave radius.

This build provides good Vulnerability and high Breakbar Damage baseline, as well as great personal Quickness uptime.

A substantial portion of Reaper's damage comes from skills and modifiers. Your DPS potential can be heavily reduced by unavoidable mechanics in certain encounters, or subpar positioning in others.
