Question What perks do you guys prefer using on Reaper?

6 Upvotes

Ever since I started the game a few months ago I've been using Soul Reaving and Trigger Finger, but now I've been thinking about his perks more and wondering what'd be better. I rarely use Shadow Step due to how slow it is which makes me consider using Shadow Blink instead. I've considered using Lingering Wraith instead of Soul Reaving too, however Soul Reaving is pretty handy with his ult (imo) also because I feel like having more healing is always better overall.

Revert Dire Triggers

I'm at a tilting point questioning why Blizzard keeps changing Reaper. This 1 singular change has completely fucked Reaper into another poke-ish hero to balance around. What happened to the self-sustaining, close ranged, tank shredding flanker I've come to known and love?

Blizzard is too stubborn to revert changes even though they keep moving and removing perks that helped flex his play style. Reaper has always struggled with sustain post season 9, he's still missing 15 hp, now with the health nerfs, it's 40.

They now buffed life-steal and soul orbs to compensate, but that just leads to another problem of Reaper simply being a flanker. If tank shredding was too strong, then nerf his spread. If Dire Triggers is too good, then turn it into a buck shot. It's also insane how an old hero like him still can't cancel his ult.
