moving on the collectors who are under complete and total reaper control take some of the tech they find useful during their abductions of entire colonies. The tech they take they study it while the colonists are processed into liquid for a new reaper. The then bring said tech before their reaper overlords allowing the reapers to make countermeasures and possibly make improvements to themselves now im not saying if the collectors abduct a forerunner colony the reapers are going to use forerunner weapons and other tech, also with the collectors bringing in all those colonists for processing im pretty sure there bound to weaknesses within said factions colonists at least on a genetic level. The reapers will also begin making virus from the genetic material they studied soon enough it wouldn't be surprising if the reapers come up with a new type of adjundant.
