Chapel of the Reaper, Greymoor

The Reaper Crest trades speed for heavy, wide-arcing needle slashes with extra reach, and it generates bonus Silk on hit, so it pays off the more aggressively you swing. It is a favourite for clearing groups and for builds that lean on frequent Silk Skills and Bind healing. You unlock it at the Chapel of the Reaper in Greymoor, west of Halfway Home. Pair it with offensive Yellow tools to maximise the Silk you reap back from every encounter.
