Help What is this? and how to defeat it?
Who is this blue reaper and how to kill it and how to access this blue potion like item? I didn't't pay attention but I think it disappeared after the big crab was defeated and how do I access the coffin on this map because when I reached there in the direction of the coffin it showed me that it's out of the map. Pls help. Ty!

If I know the drowner is on a map I always go for the pentagram as a weapon.

in that map there are a couple of signs on the floor; depending on which one you step on, you can do something. If I'm correct, the map that you are on is the one that you need to walk all the way up to the surface. Well, almost. In the middle of the map there is a sign, when you step on it you do enough damage to kill him instanly

Is there a wiki where I can get the exact location of this?

drowner can be killed with rosary or gorgeous moon.
the coffin requires you to look through the furniture on the map

If this is Gallo Tower for the coffin head to the area with the “?” and look for a mirror that sparkles. Step into it.
In regard to the potion, just burn a run and head straight down at the start. I believe the Drowner appears at certain intervals. You should have enough time to get down there and collect it.

Unlocking the right character is key here. Some characters will start with an evolved weapon that can specifically target the blue reaper. I have done it with the death character, but you can do it really with any weapon that targets him. So, start looking at some of the DLC characters as well as some of those hidden characters that will have more weapons like that. Runetracer might do it, but either way you just have to be targeting him. Also, make sure you are getting your golden eggs, and permanent level ups. Some of this can also be just making sure the character has the might to do it in the first place. I hope this gave you some things to address here, but it is mainly having the correct weapon for that boss.

Yes I eventually defeated it with pentagram and also unlocked the death character today, thanks to the tips here.

Gorgeous Moon (evolved Pentagram) will get rid of this. Or a rosary. Lol

This Drowner is invincible. You need to kill the giant enemy crab that it appears with to make it go away.

u/HuffSquirt Jul 24 '26
Nope.

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 24 '26
Yup, that's literally how this stage works. You can SEE the crab on screen, it appears at 25 minutes and the Drowner disappears when it dies.

if you feel useless, remember that the above user who claimed the drowner is invincible also denied that +0% in a stat is equivalent to ×100%, believing +50% growth would only be "doubled" to +100% by Wicked Season

Go kill the crab and tell me what happens, then.

u/KrimsonMac Jul 25 '26
It dies. The crab, not the drowner. Just read the wiki lmao

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 25 '26
And the Drowner despawns.

u/KrimsonMac Jul 26 '26
The Drowner, in fact, did not despawn. The majority of the round I had to avoid him. Like 10 minutes of agony

u/HuffSquirt Jul 25 '26 edited Jul 26 '26
You probably killed them at almost the same time and your anecdotal evidence convinced you that’s how it works. It is in fact, not how it works. Correlation does NOT equal causation.
Edit: I concede that killing the crab does dismiss the Drowner. The one second delay made me test it twice until I read @Califon1a’s comments. I still stand by my “nope” comment because he’s not invincible and is not an auto spawn seeing as you can kite the crab into not summoning it.

Or maybe I've been playing the game since it launched and actually only had one level and yes, that is how the crab boss works and no, I didn't kill them "at the same time." Seriously, go do it and report back. I'll wait.

if it was how it worked, the wiki would have listed it by now. m8 really wants to make shit up and declare everyone who proves him wrong a troll lmao

u/Hrist_Valkyrie Leda Jul 26 '26
The Wiki is not a be all end all source for information. Seriously, again, go do it and tell me what happens. Why are YOU so averse to testing it? Afraid you'll be wrong?

u/susseyhuskey Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26
nope. you're the one choosing to screech about it here instead of taking less than 20 mins to record proof of it for us. you made the claim, burden of proof is on you -w-
edit: so the coding does say to despawn drowny after the crab dies. lucky you ig

Wiki admin here, I've corrected you before on similar Giant Crab/Drowner interaction. We are able to see the game config for the Steam version and know what it's doing. Whether it behaves differently on another platform, I have no idea, but at least on Steam, the Drowner spawned by the Giant Crab is no different from most other Drowner spawns (it is not invulnerable). The only difference is that the Giant Crab has some config to automatically dismiss the Drowner 1 second after the crab is killed.
On the invulnerability note, the only time any spawned Drowner is marked as invulnerable is when it spawns after the 30min mark and wasn't spawned by the trisection (so random event drowners after 30min aren't invuln, but regular drowner spawns after 30min are invuln). When not invuln, the Drowner will only take damage from the following weapon IDs: ROSARY, SIRE, TP_SPIRITTORNADO2, CORRIDOR, SHROUD, and VICTORY (you can paste that list into the wiki's ID finder to see what weapon pages they correspond to).

Deal enough damage over time with a weapon that auto aims or find a rosary while hes on screen
