Spawn a wild Reaper
cheat summon Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C
Open the console with ~, paste, hit Enter. All Reaper commands ↓ — tamed, leveled, variants, one-tap copy.

Spawn a tamed Reaper at any level

gmsummon spawns it already tamed. Set the level below — it's the pre-tame level, and ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus on top, so the final creature lands higher. Change the number, copy, paste.

cheat gmsummon "Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C" 150
≈ level 225 once tamed

A gmsummon-tamed Reaper still needs a saddle — it isn't force-tamed. Want it instantly, level aside? Use cheat SummonTamed Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C (random level).

ARK Reaper FAQ — Ability, Uses & Spawn Commands

What does the Reaper do in ARK?
The tamed Reaper King's signature attack is an acid shrapnel tail shot (Right-click/LT) that fires green projectiles acting like chain bolas — severely slowing anything they hit for roughly 10 seconds regardless of creature size. The King can also leap vast distances (minimal stamina cost), spin in an AoE knockback (C key), and burrow underground via the radial menu when unmounted. Reaper is a carnivore. Cannot be tamed by knockout. A Reaper Queen at very low HP outside of charge light will impregnate a player (emits reddish-pink pheromone cloud). After ~12 hours real-time gestation, the Reaper King baby erupts from the player's chest. Baby Reaper Kings are hostile to all until the Juvenile stage — keep Reaper Pheromone Glands in inventory to safely imprint on them. Found in Aberration's underground biomes.
How do you use the Reaper's ability in ARK?
Bite with Left-click. Fire acid shrapnel tail projectiles with Right-click/LT — these apply a slow debuff usable for trapping or debilitating targets for your tribemates to tranquilize. AoE spin attack with C key, which deals light damage and knocks enemies back. Access Burrow from the radial wheel while not mounted. Left Control triggers a roar (prevents movement while active). The Reaper cannot fly and must be obtained through impregnation — there is no knockout tame. The acid tail shot functions as a free slow/immobilizer on any creature, including massive ones — chain it with tribe tranq darts to tame tough creatures. As a tank, level primarily Health; for DPS, level Melee Damage. Imprint bonus is critical: maximum imprint significantly boosts stats and damage. During gestation, the player earns XP which transfers directly to the baby Reaper's starting level (up to 75 levels above the Queen's level). Consume Reaper Pheromone Gland before interacting with the baby in its baby stage to prevent it from attacking you.
What is the Reaper good for in ARK?
Combat (tank or DPS), crowd control via acid tail slow, Aberration traversal, boss fights (Rockwell), neutralizing fast enemies or setting up tames
What is the Reaper spawn command in ARK?
Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C to spawn a wild Reaper in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.
How do I spawn a tamed Reaper at a specific level?
Use cheat gmsummon "Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level — ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.
What's the difference between summon, SummonTamed and gmsummon?
summon drops a wild Reaper at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify — the one most people want.
Do ARK spawn commands work in single player and on servers?
Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.
Are there other versions of the Reaper?
Yes — Reaper has 5 spawnable variants (Reaper King (Underground), Reaper King (Surface), Alpha Surface Reaper King, R-Reaper Queen, R-Reaper King). Each has its own class name, listed with copy-paste commands in the variants table above.
