Flick Reaper

"The Flick Reaper specializes in attacks meant to keep multiple enemies away. However, they are ineffective at long range."

- The World R:2 Official Site.

Flick Reaper (鎌闘士, Rentō-shi) is a class in The World R:2 that wields giant scythes. Similar to the Heavy Axemen from The World, Flick Reapers use large weapons such as Axes and Scythes to attack with.

Usefulness
Flick Reapers are very weak to long range attacks. They're the medium range, "area attack" class. They "flick" multiple enemies and push them away before they can get close enough for melee attacks, but a good Steam Gunner or Lord Partizan could overpower them by attacking from afar. Flick Reapers also excel at hitting airborne enemies with regular attacks.

Weapons

 * See Scythes.

Trivia

 * Flick Reapers were called Flickers in the Japanese version of .hack. The reason for the name change is unknown, the addition of "Reaper" probably stems from the fact that scythes are used to reap.
 * The skills Blood Craze and Demon's Reach were removed from the final release of the .hack//G.U. Games for unknown reasons.
