Challenged him today with a single group, all EP-geared or worse:
70 Necro
70 Necro
66 War
68 Clr
70 Druid
56 Druid
56 Druid and Cleric were dualboxed by the two Necros. We got him down to 2% in a little over 20 minutes, at which point we totally fubared the positioning and ended up aggroing the mobs back by orb and several more from god knows where. So, in theory we should have had him, but we got sloppy at the end.
I haven't swore that much in a long time, argh!

no slower :) the warrior almost refused to try it without one, but we talked him into it anyway. He doesn't really hit that hard, but by the end we were all pretty low on mana. Greig is MindWrackable as well, so the necros were doing that once in a while to help the healers.

killed him the other night, 70 clr 70 rog 65 war, 70 clr, 70 shm, and 2 little winks that died early, fight took a little over 2 hours, we didnt have kei, but we kept him positioned correctly, kept him debuffed, slowed. fun fight! both clerics and shm were over 8khp, tank and rog over 9k. try your luck=-)
Could a group or something like this take him down: ( ? )
Lvl 70 SK
Lvl 60 Sk
Lvl 70 Clr
Lvl 70 Chanter
Lvl 70 Necromancer
Lvl 70 Clr
Dunno if this would work, got 2 tanks pretty much, 2 clrs, one messer, and one dps heh.
Not sure, but if this wouldn't work, would it be like this: ( ? )
Lvl 70 Sk

Lvl 70 Bst
Lvl 70 Necro
Lvl 70 Chanter

Lvl 70 SK
Lvl 60 Sk - replace with any dps class
Lvl 70 Clr
Lvl 70 Chanter - go dps mode (charm a pet if it's possible to get one up there), or replace with any dps class
Lvl 70 Necromancer
Lvl 70 Cl
Your 70 SK should have no trouble tanking him unslowed, especially with 2 Clerics covering him. There's really no need for 2 tanks here, just have your SK ready to be blind most of the fight (chain casting fear should keep aggro on him nicely though, blind or not). You need tons of dps to kill him in any reasonable amount of time.

Well. 9 of us impromptu went after him tonight. Avg. level 60.
Took down the guards.. using 2 FD classes to pull. Got 3 or 4 at a time to start with.. Got them all dead..
Pulled Grieg.. well, amusing.
AE DD prevented much being cast.

Dropped Grieg today, guards were pretty easy, used pet pull on most of them, pulled to stairs... Spawn time on the guards is 1 hour btw.. Then we pulled Grieg to the stairs, he was a bit of a pain with Gravel Rain, mezzing, and constantly blinding the tank. Other than that he was fairly easy..Fight lasted around 30 minutes or so. We took 1 full grp, 65 shaman, 65 cleric, 65 warrior, 65 rogue, 65 monk, and 65 ranger... Dropped the belt of virtility (37% haste), attuned spire shard, and several spells.

Tried this mob tonight with 1 group of 55 - 60. Thought we would give it a guy with the nex XP hotspot for Grieg's End - Clearing the mobs around him was easy, they are not KOS so puller can pull and FD while people hang around them, but fighting him was very very difficult.
Can single the guards around him with pet pulling.

70th ranger was able to single pull Grieg to the hall without adds.
Grieg does not become active until all guards are dead. So... no.

Great post - but we're there with 2 groups now, and a necro is single pulling the guards using feign.

Tried him today with 4 (1 time geared war and cleric, monk and Necro (Heavy VT/emp Geared). This patch was very buggy for all of us having mobs stick into walls, getting hung on stairwells in mid air ect. With around 300+ sellbuff resisted we all still took the aes which seem to fire alot about 1 every 2 to 3 seconds. We lasted 45mins and got greig to around 50 (his regen was insane and we has taking 10pct self heals from nowhere... warping isses) Before we just gave up due to bugs. High hp to live thru the aes before cleric can fire a group heal is a must. and Hide the cleric.

Guild got him last night on Tribunal.
18 people, average level - 63
We got him on the stairs, no one fell through. Healers hiding behind wall. Took about 20 minutes, but no deaths.
Dropped Attuned Spire Shard, Geomantic Fingers of Focus, Jenniy's Two-tone Cuirass, Ichorflow and a few spells...we were pretty happy

also noted that wizard pets were immune, not certain about other swarm pets though.
our force of 10 took him fine, 1 cleric kept me healed and druid watched the rest. a bard sang remove curse song continuously. with resists approaching or at 500 (MR and FR) i resisted most AE's (all but 3 blinds) and mitigated the upheavals, when i didn't resist, to about 20dmg each.
all of us were 64/65, varying numbers of AA's, all in ornate/luclin/ssra gear at best. we had 4 DPS classes and the fight lasted a little over 20minutes, no deaths.

Tried to take him down yesterday. The bug about him falling thru the world seems to have been fixed. Unfortunately, we encountered a new bug---multiple adds from the normal mobs down below. UGH!
7 posts
Just did him tonight on Mith Marr, our guilds first time ever trying him. We fought him in his room, in one of the corners, with healers hiding behind one of the pillars. Seemed to work OK, got 0 adds from down below, and his guards on repop did not add into the fight. Took about 15-20 minutes with a raid force just under 30 people, most of which in average gear, a few in ornate and LDoN gear. Definitely a caster fight if U have the casters. Had multiple deaths but battle rezzed throughout. Main tank did OK holding agro, tough though while being stunned so much. Dropped 5 spells, a glowing orb, a Black Bridal, and an attuned spire shard. A good adventure and hardly the normal fight if you've never done him before.

Guild was clearing the guards in his chamber when suddenly a swarm of mobs pop into the room from the first floor. We clean up the train and continue clearing the guards. Best guess we had at the time is that a late commer accidentally tarined us. We are fighing Gieg on the steps and the same thing happens. Casters were back in the room. No late commers to blame this time. We figure at this point we are getting aggro through the floor in the room. After rezzes, next pull we fought him on the upper steps with the casters on the steps. Worked much better
I dont think that was a bug.. my group was feeling fiesty and went to look for Grieg... only when we got there 12 mobs came from the portal and wiped all who couldnt invis/Fd... after rezzin' they came back 5 mins later... there must be some trap or switch that sends them...

In comparison to Vindi in Kael, how tough is Grieg? Gonne' bring up the subject of raiding GE to my guild sometime after they get a bunch of these new bugs worked out.

Nowhere near him. Grieg's average DPS is around 40. To put this in perspective, a regular mob in BoT clocks in around 70. (Those numbers pulled from level 65 with LR5/ID5, approximately 1500 AC..) Vindi, however, is in the 600 DPS neighborhood.
The AE's are a consideration, but only meaning that one must monitor the rest of the raid force.
He's fully slowable, not particularly resistant.. also stunnable. Flurries occasionally.
Average HPs are 300,000 vs. Vindi's 190,000.. but Vindi's level and higher AC make Grieg a much softer target. If not for the frequent stuns, etc., he'd probably die just as quickly.

One very bad loot drop random or drop nerf.

Just killed Grieg successfully by pinning him in the corner of the stairs; nobody fell through the floor on our fight. There was a bit of a problem with pets pushing him back out of the corner, but I don't think that mattered.

have wanted to take him down for a while can run 65 warrior chanter cleric drood shammy have heard of him being takein out by 4 long fight of course but had a necro or sk always so basically i am assuming these guys are unmezzable uncharmable unpaciable if u have experienced otherwise please let me know thanks also how hard they hit slowable ? snareable ? and it is also safe to presume (or maybe not) that greig will not aggro while u are pulling the guards if he is untargetable ?

did him with 4 people recently Me 65 paladin 65 shaman 65 necro and 65 cleric . Took almost 2 hours total to do the whole event . Necro would pull the shadow masters down to top of steps .. i would tag them one at atime as they pathed back.. when all was cleared casters hid behind wall by first set of steps then i pulled greig down to corner bye the top of the 2nd stairs. Fairly easy fight shaman slowed cleric healed me and necro pretty much did all the dps, as the shaman was constently trying to cure blind on me . All i gotta say is this mob has way to much hp .
Btw for the person that asked he is on a 7 day spawner

2 of the higher level Paladin stun spells work on him quite well. My guild has quite a few paladins and we have them cycle stuns to keep him locked down.
We took greig with a raid force of 27. We had 3 healers in a 4 sec CHC and a 7.8khp 65 Pally tanking. Pally chain stuns work on him for agro and to interupt the AE.
