Its flashy Voidsent-infused abilities, and the fact that it's the first melee DPS class to be added to the roster in quite some time, makes it the much more anticipated addition to the MMORPG than the battle-focused Sage. healing.
This FFXIV: Endwalker Quick Guide will walk you through how to unlock Reaper and get started on that job as quickly as possible. If you're already close or at max level, you won't have to overdo it.
How to Unlock Reaper in FFXIV: Endwalker
To unlock the Reaper class, you will need to both own Endwalker and already have at least one class up to level 70. If you meet both of these criteria, you can go ahead by adding this class to your belt. There are only two things left to do: find an NPC and complete a series of quests.
The NPC needed to unlock the Reaper class can be found in Ul'dah, Nald Marches. The restless attendant is located at coordinates (12.8,8.6) near the quicksand. Their location can be seen on the map below.
Interact with the NPC to receive the quest, The Killer Instinct. Complete this quest and you'll have FFXIV's new melee class unlocked and ready to play.
And that's how you unlock the Reaper class in FFXIV: Endwalker. It really is that simple, especially if you already have a level 70 or higher class. Otherwise, you could spend some time on previous content in expansions like Shadowbringers or Stormblood to prepare.
