Ahh. For an aspiring, levelling engineer this is quite a gem.
Not only is the bot a fair boost on DPS up to mobs level 35'ish once dead they can be looted for fused wiring.

The downsides is they are quite agressive and should not be brought to areas where careful pulling is a must (instances).
They can also not be healed, though there is an engineering item that can be used to heal them with.

Commento di Thottbot

Are they reusable or are htey destroyed after the 10 minutes?

Commento di Thottbot

they are not useless at all, useful when you need to take on 4 or 5 mobs at once if you don't want to sit around asking people to join you.

I love these little guys. I've been using them since I was able to make them, and I'm 38 now. They are invaluable when you're soloing, and they still good dps in groups.

Of course, I'm a warrior, so for the most part these little guys fight better than I do.

Commento di Thottbot

actually u can have this lil thing and your pet out at the same time. I'm a walock and i had my voidwalker summoned and bot out together. Quite useful so far. Only thing i didnt like was that i couldnt command it's actions, it kinda randomly attacked stuff.

Commento di Thottbot

on average about what lvl monster can these handle alone

Commento di Thottbot

I turned mine loose on a level 45 humanoid...Most hits by the harvester were either parry or block, and when it did hit, between 1-8 damage. I guess some damage is better than none; and they don't hold aggro either.

Commento di Thottbot

They are 1 time use only, I dont know if they stack (yet) but they are helpfull for those times when you get swarmed by baddies, expecially as a mage with no armor. They have no controlls whatsoever and they only ttack stuff that poses a threat to you.

Information:

Taught by Trainer
You can only have one in use at a time
It also blocks use of any of the dragons or the chicken (Downside)
Still can run Shrink ray and Death ray with them which is good
It however is an item like target dummies and is destroyed at the end of it�s time limit
When it dies you can loot it and usually drops about half the mats used to make it
They stack so multiples only take up one bag slot (Big plus there)
It is statically set to level 35 and not based off engineering skill like dragon or chicken

I have Engineering 180, but can't find any horde trainer who want to teach me this. Do you need to be lvl35 to learn this?

Commento di Thottbot

no you dont need to be level 35, though maybe the trainer just can't teach you that high of a schematic, idk but just keep looking for someone else.

Commento di Thottbot

Does anyone know where the trainer is who can train this skill. I've tried the trainers in:

Orgrimmer
Ratchet
Booty Bay
Undercity
gadgetztan

or is it just that they have an issue with me being lvl27

Commento di Thottbot

All the other sheeps, harvest reaper, machanical dragonling, you can only have ONE summon out. So you can't get like 1 sheep out and one harvest reaper, only one or the other at a time.

If you read the top, there is a list of items that share the same cooldown of each other. Meaning you can only have one summon out at any time.

Still with 3 damage pets, though hunters are a little annoying because of their nerfs, it makes up by making you look very cool. Couple this with camp fire making, trap laying, and you can pretty much build your own base camp and ambush area :P

Commento di Thottbot

First, thank you to Jamoo for that excellent tactical summary. The note about these and other "guardian" units acting like Hunter/Warlock pets on "aggressive" mode is a very important point to remember for anyone using one of these or a similar thing.

Why very sad? Because I loved my Compact Harvest Reapers but I've been 60 for a long time and they are now totally useless. Compare this to a Mechanical Dragonling or Battle Chicken: Although their hit points do not scale up, they are "summoned" at a level proportional to the owners Engineering expertise (Engineering/5, so at Engineer 300 a Dragonling is Level 60). Therefore, if they are the target, they die fast but at least they don't suffer from the level difference. But the Reapers are always Level 35 no matter your own level and so they both die fast if they are the target of a Level 50+ creep and only rarely can get a normal hit in on such a target themselves.

I still have a Mechanical Dragonling (not Mithril, not Arcanite... the lowest-level one) and it remains useful for scoring a little extra damage; I just have to be sure it doesn't pull any aggro because, although it appears at Level 60, it has the same hit points it did when I was Level 35. I'd love to see an Advanced Compact Harvest Reaper Kit. I miss my Reapers...

Commento di Thottbot

Well, those things are also good vs hunters. They only have 1m cooldown (after its destroyed) and you can use them to eat the hunter's freeze trap.
However, if you are a rogue this thing will break your blind and gouge and that sucks.

Commento di Thottbot

Wow, no one has comment on this yet?

It is a fantastic item if you need that extra little dps boost. Useful for quite a while until it starts getting one shotted by mobs, then it becomes pretty useless.

Best thing about it is, after it dies you can loot most of your mats back off of it, and sometimes even a fused wireing, which is extremely worthwhile.

Commento di Thottbot

So did anyone really find a trainer that teaches it? Where is he? Any major city? What zone?

Commento di Thottbot

For those of you that said you can not have this out and a mechainical dragon at same time are wrong. Im a lvl 39 hunter and you CAN have the dragon, the reaper and a pet at same time. As for usefullness i managed to take down a lvl 39 pally and a lvl 39 druid in BG at the same time by my self. These guys wernt noobs but wheres traps that limit there moement and you got three things on you its not that easy. As for stackable yes they are. I carry a stack of 3 but not sure maxs stat size. After 10 mintues they die.

Commento di Thottbot

What happens to the Reaper when you die? After I rez'd, I could not find the Reaper to loot. Very expensive way to die. Any thoughts (other than don't die)?

hey where do u learn to use?

Commento di Allakhazam

Its only one use like stated, summons a lvl 35 reaper thats actually pretty nice, he hits fast and can take aggro fairly well its already saved my butt a couple of times and since you can make it at lvl 30 a lvl 35 pet is very nice.

Commento di Allakhazam

This is the best way for owning rogues on 21-30 pvp, Especially if you have no AoE spells or items. As a druid i usually just stealthed through midfield since there was usually 2-3 rogues just pwning everyone but once i hit 30 i just travel formed out to mid field. took up camp and let him loose. since hes 35 he can see anything lower than him and most rogues are usually 28- so he was having a field day. it especially pissed them off when i waited right outside their graveyard and watched the rogues run down and stealth. i just cast natures grasp in case one hit me and he went nuts on the others. seriously this will make you "that pain in the a$$ <class>" til you get bumped out of first bracket pvp. its also great for druids and rogues soloing the flag cause you can just run to second floor summon him, stealth and drop down. when you drop he will run around the outside and come in other way while you grab flag and haul butt out graveyard entrance. same with exploding sheep too. its a nice distraction for a good 3-4 seconds, just make sure you have a freeaction and swiftness potion on hand just in case. Also for all those trash talking rogues up to about 33 you can duel their brains out cause it takes alot to kill those harvesters. i have nothing against rogues but i just hate them without my AoEs.

Does using this change your xp gained in anyway?

Commento di Allakhazam

Can a hunter use this if he already has a pet summoned?

Commento di Allakhazam

Was just wondering if anyone has made this and if it was a one use item?

Commento di Allakhazam

this thing is really cool to bad i'm lvl 50 in engineering time to go full steam ahead for me eh
i could use this alot during instaances and stuff
mob fights even in high lvl grinding and really hard quests like killing hogger the 15th time lol

Commento di Allakhazam

so much chatter, so little screenshots

Commento di Allakhazam

where do u get it

Commento di Allakhazam

I find the thing can be kind of useful. Although, I am a rogue, so stealthing with it can be kind of difficult. But going though a instance with a party, and not stealthing up (or trainin' in)

So in the latter of the situations, it's pretty good. When I was at the same level as it was, it had trouble keeping the aggro from me, but still was very useful. I would assume, more useful for a Warrior, or hunter, or caster.

Commento di Allakhazam

i m playing a gnome mage right now and i was using Compact Harvest Reaper to quest in STV...one of my horde friends was there questing too =(-i was returning back to Nesingway's Camp ( or w/e it's called) and i met him at 20% of his health...i helped him kill his mob but his robot charged and killed my friend =(
TERMINATOR OMG ROBOT-KILLER
true story

Commento di Allakhazam

Since they're single-use, can you summon a Reaper *and* another mechanical pet such as a Battle Chicken?

Come to think of it, is there a cooldown at all on these babies or can you just click another from your stack as soon as it gets killed or goes poof?

Also, once it's used up, can you loot parts like for a Target Dummy?

Thanks in advance,

Engineering Envy

Commento di Allakhazam

This is REALLY helpfull, so make them while they're helpful.
Don't take a break on Engineering for like 7 levels at Lv 33, 'cuase then you'll miss out on one of the coolest devices that a mid-level Engineer can make, |3`/3!

Commento di Allakhazam

This thing is apparently classed as a mechanical, does that mean it can be affected by the Universal Remote? That would be the fun.

Commento di QuickBASIC

This is only taught by Artisan or Master Engineers, so you won't be able to train this in Undercity or Stormwind.
