This named is kinda strange in my opinion. I have not witnessed him spawning from killing mobs, maybe he is on a timer. Out of all the named in this zone, he is the rarest. Folks should be glad they did not include him in hunter achievement :D
I agree, I was killing mobs and PH to narrow down named and he spawned in. I killed him to find his ph but nothing spawned after I did so but running around I have a sneaky suspicion "a_ Splitpaw_gnoll" is in that cycle.
Spent about 5 hours killing gnolls waiting for him to appear on the track window. He was walking south north of the two hills the gnolls hang out on to the west of the spires at the entrance to the lair. All I was killing were gnolls on the hills, so do not know if he truly has a placeholder.
will someone put some info on about for how much damage this guy hit, his relative attack rate(quick not so quick) and relative hp? i have a 23 bst, been wondering if i'll be able to solo him with my little tiger and self buffed only?
Just dropped him with my 25 troll beastlord. Max hit was 52. I'd imagine if you can go toe to toe with a couple of regular blue mobs (boglings in EC for example), then he should be an easy enough kill. Dropped the backpack for me.
was trying to help a friend track rexrex to spawn grisox last night and all the while for a good hour i keep seeing him on my radar. I just dinged 31 on my ranger when i decided to check him out. i of course checked out his stats and drops here at this venerable site before lounging at him. He's aggro range is quite wide, sam him up on a hill by the skelly camp, didn't need to arrow pull him, he was still out of my range, the bugger turns straight at me with a simultaneous cast of fear. Good thing i was running towards him as well also casting cancel magic when he starts pounding at me like roy jones jr. this guy is heavy duty if you're not up to the task. He was still dark blue to me but i overtook him by the time he got me down to 65%. Nice pack with 35% reduc some coins and a skin bag. Don't know what his ph though.
I had my level 29 gnome necro camping the hill by the spires when all the sudden <WHACK> from behind. I figured, no biggie just a gnoll coming up from behind til I noticed my health bar was way down then turn around and see some big ole troll fighting my pet. I killed him no problem but then I saw my faction with Bertoxxulous got worse. What gives? My necro has Bertoxxulous for religion so why'd he attack me?
Well I whacked him down and got a picture of him. He dropped the Backpack..yeah! He is way more rare then Quillmane in my opinion. How do I upload his picture?
I camped near the hermit's hut for many hours and have not been able to find Groi on track. Does anyone have any idea when he spawns, what might you need to kill to get him to spawn and what he looks like please?
he spawns, found him today near the hermits. started after me of his own violation.. so didnt feel bad about killing him, dropped the WR pack, and a rusty dagger. was light blue to 37
i've been looking for this guy forever! mind you, i don't make a habit of camping him, it would be pointless! but i haven't spoken with anyone who's seen him. i'm beginning to wonder if he DOES still spawn! no feedback here since April. has anyone been lucky?
was sitting in the ent to Paw tonight, with my 33 warrior, and this guy started hitting me though the cieling. I went outside and killed him easily enough. he dropped the Lionhide backpack. so, he does still spawn, though I have no idea what the spawn rate is or if ph's are involved
A couple nights ago I log on around the south spire in Splitpaw and I hit my track button. To me shock Groi was there. I follow it to a group of tree south and east of the south spire like some of the post I read. I kill him with my 34 Ranger,got ring of shadoows and a large bag but the lionskin backpack wasn't there, here is the location I found him standing here his loc is -5052.11,-247.76,-0.66 I hope it help but his spawn is rare so I would'nt say it a good item to camp
Im 38 druid camping spire when i tracked this guy and bring him down. I looted large raw hide shoulder pad, a lion hide back pack 35% wt reduct and 4pp
