The Old Reaper is a post-Moon Lord rogue weapon that drops from The Old Duke. When fired, it throws out a reaper scythe that homes in onto enemies. Each reaper scythe will hit an enemy twelve times before disappearing, inflicting the Crush Depth and Sulphuric Poisoning debuffs onto enemies.

Performing a stealth strike with The Old Reaper will cause three scythes to be thrown instead of one.

Its best modifier is Flawless.

Trivia

  • When it was a rare variant, it was called The Reaper, as it was dropped from Reaper Sharks. The name was changed to what it is now to better fit with its new source.
