The skeletons need to get to work.

@wolfmanbush I think a harpoon isnt a convenience at this point every island has one
Out of most of the time that reapers has existed it also makes the least risk/reward sense to add it.
It definitely should have been added early on when it became obvious that the reality of reaper play (organically) was playing organically for 20 to 30 minutes before the rest of that server became fighting boats with no treasure that were part of the content creation machine.
Now the game is in a spot where not having a harpoon actually makes sense, as unfun as it might be it still makes sense in current risk/reward.
The game is not as intense, the content creation machine isn't as big or as focused on one style of play anymore. Still plenty of risk but it's not ridiculous anymore. Some of that is because of improvements by Rare and quite a bit of it is just because specific groups burnt out of the game more than others.
Fleets are right by reapers, Cofs were right by reapers in season 11. Fotd is right by reapers. No harpoon makes sense when the game isn't as intense anymore in risk/reward.
Now that I think about it, we should want more people playing Reaper Emissary because they make servers come alive. Reaper Emissaries, Forts of the Damned, and Forts of Fortune are all great streamer candy.
Since the Reapers have to take so many risks to reach grade V and specifically have to make it all the way back to Reaper's Hideout, and only Reaper's Hideout to slowly sell their load while the whole server is watching.. I do believe the hideout is due for an overhaul.
Harpoons on the outside would work, but what if there were skeletons waiting for you on the dock that you could hand loot to and they walk the loot inside for you to sell lol. I don't know, I just think it would be interesting if Reapers did something unique instead of turning every outpost into a Sovereigns copy and paste. That's quite literally just my personal opinion though and probably an irrelevant one. Lol
