	Fastest way to do RXP is with boxes, or as ITRs, IMO, if you don't wanna spend money. Resetting first time bonuses is really important. Best to play many different builds (so you don't get bored) but to have gear for the new build ready for when you hit cap. Another thing is... ...shit takes a long time. Be happy when you hit 86 or whatever dual tree cap is for your build. After that it slows down quite a bit and the juice is not worth the squeeze really IMO. ~ ~ ~ R6 can solo pretty easy on a Sorc, and after the update it won't be much different. Post R6+ then if you get a good group bump it up to R10. Do all your first times, then TR again.

	Probably too soon to say as U59 is imminent. Casters are still going to dominate low-mid reaper but with out of combat healing being a thing any build with reliable CC will work in higher difficulties. We will have to see after the caster nerfs if they stay on top in R10 but I have a feeling monks are going to make comeback for solo speed play (only real weakness they have on live is healing thanks to the healing hands nerf) but might be too squishy to begin with.

Pretty meh overall. We’ll see if that changed with the upcoming reaper ability overhaul that’s supposedly coming.

	To be fair, some builds do make use of three trees. Charisma Pallie, Bard doing some melee, EK etc. but for many builds two tree's is plenty for sure.

	In my opinion, the best build for farming reaper is a caster on a second account, using iconic/class lives to reset first time bonuses while you head to completionist. Bonus points for two casters, one locked at 26 and one capped. That way you can run 20 through 30 on the highest but fastest Reaper level you can manage. It might just be me over engineering a solution though. Or if you really don't care about iconics and classes, yeah just run a caster 15 to 30, get all the first time bonuses you can and rinse repeat. I like Sorc or Alchemist. You want a great set of level 15 gear and another set for 20/21. I would not bother with reaper in low heroics. It's free xp if you are running those levels anyway, but not worth running just for the reaper xp in my opinion.
