Next time you find yourself in a stadium.

The thing is half a football field long American or soccer, they're close enough for field size. Reapers are larger than most things on Earth. Sea emperor is dying off because the bacterium killed off their food. Ghost leviathans eat those, they are just territorial. Next, most of the things you listed eat Plankton and krill. Are humans top of our food chain here on Earth? When I die, bacteria and worms and whatnot will eat my remains. If you are basing off size compared to others in the same classification, then by extension, only one can be a Leviathan. So then once that is gone, what about the sea treader? Once that is gone, what about the reefback?Įventually you are left with the sea emperor. So you are ruling it out because it is the smallest of the leviathans. According to the wiki (unofficial), all that's required for a creature to be placed in the category is for it to be really big.ĮDIT2: Please share your opinion in the comments, I'd love to have a discussion and hear your opinions. I just wanted to explain something I thought of and found interesting from me looking up what the hell Leviathan actually means. They are Leviathans becase the devs say so and it's their game. So, because it's size doesn't compare to other Leviathans, and because it's a snack for another Leviathan, in my opinion, the Reapers aren't actually Leviathans.ĮDIT: Just to clarify: This is my opinion, I don't think they fit the bill for what I think a Leviathan should be.

There are 2 more in the ALZ if I remember correctly but still, this means that it's not very uncommon for the Dragon to get himself a meal from the surface. The Reaper is sometimes dinner for the twice as large Sea Dragon which sometimes takes a trip up the LR, and drags a Reaper down to the ILZ.Īnd remember, there is 1 Sea Dragon in the ILZ. In the Inactive Lava Zone you find I think there are 4 Repear Leviathan skeletons. BUT IT ISN'T EVEN AT THE TOP OF THE FOOD CHAIN And the Sea Emperor is dwarfed by the Gargantuan Skeleton found in the LR which is around 1000m.Īnyways, compared to it's diet of small fish, stalkers and bone/sandsharks it's pretty massive.

It's half the size of an adult Ghost Leviathan, and the Sea Emperor is beetween 3 or 4 times bigger. OK, so is the Reaper huge? Yeah, but, relative to others? No. Now, the term leviathan could be interpreted in many ways, combining a few definitions, this is what I found best describe them: Huge ocean monster that is the top of its food chain. Sea Treader Leviathan -Reaper Leviathan 55m -Reefback Leviathan 70m -Ghost Leviathan 67m (juvenile) 107 (adult) -Sea Dragon Leviathan 112m -Emperor Leviathan 160m-200m (1.5m baby) Firstly, the fauna classified as 'leviathans' in Subnautica, from smallest to largest are:
