Honestly reaper leviathans are only scary when they come out of nowhere or if you aren't in a seamoth. I think a very underrated, essential upgrade is the seamoth perimeter defense system. Literally a miracle gift from devs. A reaper is grabbing you in your seamoth? Zap them and they instantly let go. Then you can rush off as fast as you can and zap them again as soon as it recharges to discourage them, then go to the nearest safe biome to repair the seamoth. It works for any creature except ampeels (cause, they're already electric, duh). Yep, ghost leviathans, warpers, bone and sand sharks, stalkers, mesmers, everything else. I use it to kill stalkers with these if they keep following me to my base, too bad I can't just knife their bodies to get stalker teeth. Also use it where there are lots of small fish and you get lots of free fried food! I never had a problem with energy the seamoth, cause the moonpool charges it immediately after I dock it back in. Would obviously recommend having a moonpool before using this upgrade lucratively.

One time I needed a fragment in the dunes and it was completely the middle of the night and I glided over to the exact coordinates of the wreck on the surface in my seamoth, took a deep breath, and went straight down into the pitch dark without headphones (cause whenever I'm scared I don't want to hear anything), scanned the fragment as fast as I could and rushed out of it alive without a reaper encounter.

Not realizing that, now, days later, I need something else from that goddamn wreck...

Guess I gotta go back now, this time in the day lol
