Strategy

Reavers are the only class that can wield a non-dagger melee weapon in the secondary hand.

Early game reavers can be played like casters, using drain, virulent disease and soul rot. Later on you'll want to de-level soul rot, max out corrupted strength and only use spells to trigger corrupted strength. Rend is a spell too and it will deal more damage without a crit than soul rot will deal with it. Both will trigger just the same.

Bone grab is an amazing spell that only takes 2 points of investment to shine (1 for nearly worthless bone spear). It doesn't scale with talent level at all, so leave it at 1. Later on you'll want bone shield maxed out and a category point spent to upgrade the tree. You'll want a tree in which 3 of the skills are level 1 to be upgraded, that's how good bone shield is.

Reavers lack mobility, you'll want a teleport inscription (mandatory) and a movement infusion (highly helpful).

Leech looks useless, but it's actually really good. If you have vimsense up, leech leveled and enough resistances, you can outheal an overpowered multicolored wyrm just by using rend/acid splash/dark surprise on it and leeching off its retaliation damage.

Light tree is amazing on Reaver. Thanks to your most important ability, you don't waste turns when healing, shielding or "providencing" with spells.

Your worst enemy is worm that walks. When standing next to one DO NOT use spells that take a turn or you'll just attack them with corrupted strength, which will only heal them. Use wands, weapons of projection and other items if you can. Only use basic attacks if you have enough bone shields and hp, worms that walk have corrupted strength too and can deal incredible damage when they use it. Try to fight them in vaults, this will stop them from blindsiding you (teleport+attack) and keep a carrion worm between you and them to stop them from using other offensive abilities.
