Ah yes... that. Again, Thanix cannon, The Cain, multiple ships firing at it at the same time. These kill Reapers. Two blasts can kill the thing on normal, which is the universal difficulty, show if you up it to about five shots then it's dead. So no, the Human Reaper wasn't a big problem. As for stealing colonies, the Alliance can only blain itself for that. If they had sent a major force to fight the collectors, Shepard wouldn't have had to do a thing.
