How to Get Reaper Crest
Found in the Chapel of the Reaper in Greymoor
You can find the Reaper Crest at the Chapel of the Reaper in Greymoor. From Halfway Home, travel all the way to the left side of the map until you reach a cage. Climb up on the cage and head to the entrance at the center of the area.
From there, you'll be able to reach the Chapel. Head inside and climb your way up to reach the room up top. Be prepared as this will initiate an ambush.
Once you've cleared the enemies, the passage up will show itself and you will be able to get the Reaper Crest.

This build allows the Reaper Crest to increase its attack range to be able to poke enemies at a safe distance. Since Reaper has a very slow moveset, it's important to get items like Flea Brew, which increases its attack speed.
To complement its far-reaching attacks, it's important to get Longclaw during the later phase of the game. However, for the early game, the range should be enough to deal with most enemies. Flintslate is a good tool to have to further increase our damage.
Because of its slow attack speed, Reaper doesn't generate as much Silk outside of when its Silk buff is active, so you must get Spool Extender to have extra Silk on hand to reactivate your Silk Skills or Silk Bind much faster when you need it.
