Can You Kill the Grim Reaper in the Umbral in Lords of the Fallen? Answered

Death comes for us all.

Hexworks brings plenty of neat ideas to the Soulslike table, and one of the new mechanics helps players to level up even quicker than usual. In essence, this comes into play when you enter the Umbral dimension, as new enemies spawn with regularity while an XP multiplier steadily increases. After a while, however, a tough-as-nails mini-boss will appear and try to put a stop to your leveling up shenanigans. So, if you’re wondering whether you can kill the Grim Reaper in the Umbral in Lords of the Fallen, here’s everything you need to know.

Nevertheless, it is possible to kill the monster as long as you’re at a high level, can take some damage, and are equipped with strong weapons and armor.

Most importantly, you’ll need to inflict massive amounts of damage to kill the Grim Reaper as it possesses a lot of health and has high resistance to physical attacks. Additionally, you’ll also have to be quite nimble in order to dodge its numerous spin attacks by rolling often.

What Does It Drop?

Once defeated, the Grim Reaper drops 2,625 Vitality, and has a chance of dropping the following loot:

  • Left-Hand Bringer of Stillness Sword
  • Stillness Hood
  • Dimexus Rune
  • Vestige Seed
  • 5x Umbral Scouring
