Garou
# Dec 21 2002 at 8:33 AM Rating: Excellent
My guildmate and I were doing the Cougars in IC last night when Garou poped and smoked her (lvl 32 Druid). I was playing my 28 Chanter a that time so when she got back I logged my 40 Druid to take him out. I had KEI
Ensnare stuck then DoD, Imolate, Crud, Swarm all stuck. Rooted and sat. He nuked me down to about 1 bubble of health (DoT's and nukes) I healed and hollered for my friend to hurry up getting her KEI redone.
Healed myself 3 times, nuked him 3 times he is down to 2 bulbs of health. I refresh all DoT's (2 resists on DoD and 1 on Imolate) and re-root. Down to 1 bulb of mana. Friend returns and starts to help out while I med. Garou heals himself with, GHeal I assume, to 3.5 health. OHOH!!!! Root breaks and he DoT's me again. I heal and nuke him twice more then he Gates out!
ARRGGGG!!! We track him and he is still rooted. I sit and med while friend dumps the mana pool on him. (Lots of resists on a 32 druid)
I get up and nuke him 3 times then he turns to run (1/2 bubble health) and we go in to get skill up with weapons. :)
He dropped the Skin and a CLR drop spell

I soloed Midnight at 35 or 36 for the first time I believe. I don't think I would have had enough mana if I had been younger. Midnight was a cinch because I still had my kiting spells up, so I just snared, lightning strike, lightning strike... and if he was subdued and I got to beat on him so much the better. (I know, this is about Garou, but I thought I'd answer their question even if they are way past 34 now ; )

Spawn

Oh - and he's a 18 hour RANDOM spawn - meaning if he doesn't spawn 18 hours after he dies - it's another 18 hours till he might spawn again...
Garou isn't easy

I ran across Garou one day... On accident - was headed to TOFS - Saw him on track.

Heck yeah - lets go. I was FM - level 42 Druid at the time. Cast a fresh SoW and headed out

Snare - resist
Snare - resist
Turn to run - whack - whack - I'm not pulling away.
Ok - he's faster than SoW
Root - stick

Back off - break - root - resist
After 2 bubbles of mana - snare sticks. Fire my nuke resist. Fire again resist. Fire a Dot resist. Down to 1 bubble of mana. Root - Sit and med....
5 seconds later Root breaks...

At this point I'm scared - I've barely done any damage to Garou and I'm almost OOM. Fire another nuke - hits 100% - takes about 30% away - fire Drifting Death Hits. Good...

I'm OOM - Kiting this guy around... He'd Down to 50% and I'm barely staying ahead of him...

Luckily a Wiz in guild was on - he ports over and finishes him off for me.

No Skin. Got a Fang and a Drop spell...

Lesson? Don't mess with Garou unless you've got more than one or are a level 49+ druid. I got him at 50 and smoked him with no problem.
Root, snare, Dot, Nuke Nuke, Dead.

if your a druid at lvl 44 or a mage at 45 would you need a group to solo this goru and would a 34 druid be able to solo the midnight?????



A guy on rallos zek

Midnight is a mean one. I soloed him with my 41 Halfling Warrior and killed him with 5 heath left. Talk about a close one. =) Too bad the club isnt warrior usable. =(

Not sure about the Garou, as I haven't been fortunate enough to kill him. However, as a 30 warrior, I was able to kill Midnight, melee style, with the healing help of a 30 cleric, so a 34 druid could easily kite him and kill him.

Close, but no cigar on the meaning of Garou...)
Garou is modern french for wolf.
Loup Garou is modern French for werewolf.

You were headed in the right direction tho...just didnt carry it out far enough

Werewolf

Actually Garou means Werewolf.

Etymology: Middle French, from Old French leu garoul, from leu (from Latin lupus) wolf + garoul werewolf, of Germanic origin.

So Enchanters spell makes sense, and so does Garou walking around looking like a wolf (or he an orc, which then would not make sence)

I've been lucky enough to kill Garou 4 times, I have gotten the skin once and the fang 3 times.
And each time he also drops a spell, I have gotten 3 shaman spells and 1 cleric spell.
The fang of the garou is an off hand piercing weapon that has a lifespike proc and I think it is 28 delay and 9 damage.
Each time I saw him he was running between the small grove of trees below balix misteyes up to the top of the hill and back again.
Huh...

has any other Enchanters noticed that this guy has a name that is in one of our spells? Boon of the Garou, a werewolf transformation spell if i am correct, so, does this guy have anything to do with that? or any other enchanter quests? i think that mght be something to try out...
another?
# May 02 2001 at 11:32 PM Rating: Default
Hmm...don't get me wrong, I LOVE quests (I'm a paladin, I damn well BETTER love quests ;) ), but isn't this like the 5 or 6th thing that Garou drops for like 1 of 10 different quests involving him?

I'm just posting, because I was unsure. If I'm right, isn't this bugger goign to be camped 24/7? I had hoped they would stop doing that.

I am only aware of the one quest for the club. The only other things I know this guy drops are spells (Got Fixation of Ro off him), a fang and a dire wolf pelt. There may be other items, but I haven't heard of anymore quests dealing with him. Maybe I'm just slacking :-)

Anyone have any spawn-rate information on the gorou? Place-holders or anything.
