This named Goblin is found in the goblin fort in Warsliks woods and also in at least two of the goblin-infested ruins in the same zone. His gloves really are quite nice. Grachnist soaks up a lot of damage for his level.

Ok, so i'm a lvl 48 Rogue with some nice dmg dishing items (Jagged Ice Shard and Shadow Rager) and about 750 base AC with 1300 HP. Could I possibly solo this fort and not have any problems, or would I need to bring along a tank or a healer? Many thanks for anyones information.

i'd say at least bring along a tank friend just for safety and someone to talk to.

#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 16 2002 at 1:28 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I was just wondering, could a level 7 druid take this guy? I really like his loot.

Just killed him 18 times. Once he dropped legs in addition to the gloves, other times just the gloves.
camping Grach
# Mar 12 2002 at 10:38 PM Rating: Decent
i have a friend that use to have a lvl 48 mage. he let me use his acount so i camped Grach. with a earth pet at lvl 48 it was difficult to keep the fort dead and grach would kill my pet if i didnt nuke him. i then lvled the mage to 49 to get the next pets and preceded(cant seem to spell this word right) to beat the everloving fudge out of him and the rest of the fort. i have camped grach non stop for any where from 6 hours to 16 hours at a time. if u are a lvl 49 mage with your earth pet, the pet can take on at least 2 grachs at a time. i have taken on 5 grachs(yes five) at the same time in the tent area where the pit fighter spawns and won barely. pet died and i had to chain nuke the last one to death. but thru all my camping i have gotten around 20 shrunken gob skull earrings, 2 totems of the warrior spirit, as many scaled gloves as the number of times ive killed him, and some of the armor and whips on the side. the earrings can be sold for 5k on e marr and the totems for 1k. for mages just go around sicking your pet on things and just walk around till u see him. his spawn is totally random. ive killed him in every spot in the fort with the exception of the two pit fighter spawn points. he also spawns in the 2 ruins down the road from the fort and ive also seen him in a few of the goblin camps, even seen him wandering around once. the camp is pretty boring but it pays.

Well, this is going to make some people mad...

Okay, here's how it went. I was camping Pit Fighter Dob with my 34 warrior and 40 shaman friend. Well, we were takkiing a break outside the fort entrance on the east side I believe when all of a sudden, Grach starts pounding on the shaman's pet. Well, he was blue to me and with such backup, I just started pounding back on Grach. He started on me doing up to around 70 dmg, but not too often. Anyhow, easy fight, only lost one hp bubble. Here's where people might get angry at me or really irritated. He gave me loot rights, so I gladly took them. I loot, he drops a jade, iksar scaled gloves which I started wearing automatically cuz my hands slot was open, nice little item if you ask me, and there it was, a shrunken goblin skull earring, the VERY FIRST TIME I KILLED HIM. My friend and I had no CLUE it was worth 4k, so he lets me keep it! Lucky day! Killed Dob, got his tongue for my trooper armor, and we must have cleared the fort another 20 times, killing Grach once more and Dob once more. Rather pleasent xp for me. We went to Dalnir. Kicked back, killed coerced stuff, recruited anybody that came in that wanted to join, got me some much wanted iksar blood, along with a couple other small trinkets. When I return to fm to camp (cuz that's where I camp), I mentioned this earring to my guild. Since it dropped the very first time, I had no clue it was so rare. Anyhow, my guild tells me it's worth 3k, and I'm like, "No way in hell is this worth that much!". And now this site is telling me it's 4.5k!? If I had that much money, I'd be able to buy myself some much wanted weapons! Anyhow, my 2 cp, just wanted to tell you, reading all this info, I guess I got lucky*. Key word is LUCKY. I'm a lucky bad-*** that has a nicew little expensive trinket dangling from his ear. Of course I use the effect, ever little bit of atk helps a warrior!

Raster (in Lower Guk) is a far worse camp however. I've spent days there with nothing to show for it.

Then, i kill him another 9 times. Nothing But Gloves. At this point im tired of this crap. So i bind there and log. Couple days later there is an emergency patch. So i think to myself, Grachnist might be up. So I gate and I find that two are up. So I kill the first one......

Grachnist ?? Gloves, Earring

at this point there is much rejoycing! Then I proceed to kill the other one...

OH MY GOD!!!! Yeah, at this point I praise Tunare for her blessings and swear at her for making me kill so many! Anyway, I hope you have better luck :)

Grachist
# Jan 06 2002 at 4:28 AM Rating: Default
Well, as a 60 war i have camped Grachist for about 5 Hours, 4 Shrunken Goblin Skull Earrings Dropped, 1 totem , many heads and thats it. kill everything in reach. What i have found is that he wont spawn for about 1 hour, then he will spawn like crazy for about maybe, 6 - 10 times in a row. he drops the earring about once every wave so you have to be patient. also, loot everything off the corpses and just destroy it. hope my experiences help

the most i ever put in on grachy is about 4 hours a day off and on over the past month, to date i gotten 8 earrings and 6 totems. didnt take me long to figure out just when to camp him. i even had the earring drop back to back one morning. just keep gobbie fort cleared out and grachy will randomly spawn there, he can be up at least 5 times at the same time. i have taken on 2 grachs at once and be careful of KS'ers and camp invaders.

New spawn rate...
# Dec 15 2001 at 5:37 PM Rating: Decent
If you kill Grachnist, he will spawn 3 times after the first kill (immediatley spawn). Then you have to kill all gobbos agaimn...
RE: New spawn rate...
# Dec 22 2001 at 10:31 PM Rating: Good
the 3 times spawn rate is correct, but i think that he is always up, the 4th place he spawns, after the first 3 kills in near the FoB Zone, at Neg 2500 pos 3000, i see him there all the time, and usually people are shouting, is Grachnist up!! and i say, yes, he is near the FoB Zone, and they shout, Shut Up he doesnt spawn over there, but that is why after the first 3 kills, you have to kill gobs, well you dont have to kill gobs, that is just something you do to pass the time waiting for him to despawn, in his 4th spawn loc. just a theory, i believe, but if you dont cool, ill just kill him everytime like i have when i run by there and he is sitting there, just saying to me, plz, kill me, its soo easy, you know you want too, anyways good luck, and check this out, cuz 8 out of ten times i see him there

Spawn
# Oct 23 2001 at 1:17 AM Rating: Decent
I'd have to agree. 6 hours, 23 spawns. All had the gloves. 1 had the whip. Maybe 1/3rd had the skull for the legs quest. He could be any of the spawns. Even the goblins passed the bridge. Wandering or static spawn, makes no difference. He could be any of them.
Grach spawn tine...Not
# Oct 14 2001 at 1:30 PM Rating: Good
Here is the deal with Grach.

No spawn time. It is random. I have gone through and wiped the whole fort in WW and had 3 grach's spawn at once. Yes 3. He can spawn at any spot in the fort. He is totally random. Just kill at fort and he will spawn.

I went to camp Grachnist for the first time the other night, and lucky me, got totem on 2nd kill. Bout 5 kills later, he dropped the scaled wolf hide cap, which i still have in a backpack. Kinda surprised me, seeing as how some people were saying that they doubted that it dropped it at all, but now i have a piece of proof. Still looking for that damn earring tho...lol

camped him for 1st and only time saturday morn. Was waiting for me inside a ruin. Guild leader told me he killed him 300+ times w/o a earring drop. Got my earring on 1st kill, what luck. 15 or so more kills yielded 15 more pairs of gloves. Twas a happy day indeed

Spawn time etc.
# Oct 01 2001 at 8:12 AM Rating: Default
Spawn time seems to be about 10 or 15 minutes. Seems like by the time I finish clearing the fort, it's spawning again.

Also I've spent a lot of time camping him, and my observation has been that for every fort respawn two grachnists spawn in random locations.
