Ran into this guy today (10/11) in Grizzly Hills walking a path leading southwest from Granite Springs towards the river and back. A 74 elite iron golem type, about 40k health. Hit my priest pretty hard (over 5k crits), also has a knockdown move. Immune to fear. I wasn't able to solo as a holy priest in T6/Sunwell gear but a dps class or anyone with some more armor probably could.

There are a lot of wolves in the area he pats, so it's best to grab him at his closest point to Granite Springs to avoid any adds.

Commento di Zachu

Soloed today 05:00 by a retradin lvl 73. A pretty tough guy, had to bubble at him.

Dropped some rare mail gloves (Same as mentioned above) with some awsome hunter stats along with a blue/rare "bag". Inside the bag there was 20x frostweave cloth and 9 gold.

(Edit: cloth* not bandages)

Commento di h4rr0d

It's worth mentioning, that killing this guy (and probably any other rare elite) solo will grant you over 20000 XP
On a sidenote, my 'bag' contained 22g, 5 crystalized water and stack of frostweave.

Commento di nfw73

Literally bumped into it just north of Conquest Hold

Commento di 164546

Solo'd him today as a 74 Prot Warrior (T6), Fairly easy to kill.
Dropped Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Thief (664 Armor, 54 Stamina, 72 Attack Power and 36 Haste) and Abandoned Adventurer's Satchel which contained ~25g and 20 Frostweave Cloth.

Commento di 84916

Located him the same spots as listed. North of Conquest Hold, South of Granite Springs. He dropped the Random Enchant Mail Gloves and a Bag which contained: 21 gold, 20 Frostweave Cloth and 5 Crystallized Life. I killed him as level 80, so I'm sure the gold drop offsets the XP gain that this guy supposedly gives.

Commento di Norseguy

Gave 11,507 xp at level 74 for me, 2163 of that was rested.

Commento di 166472

Something else that is worth mentioning is that by killing this npc you get a fun little achievement (if you haven't already run into any of the rare spawns from WOTLK). I killed him today with the help of a priest. I was lvl 73 (feral druid) and the priest was a 75 (shadow). He was hitting me for about 1k in bear form and I can confirm his incredibly annoying stun.

If you're not prepped to take him on then try to avoid him at all costs. I ended up getting run over by him twice while killing wolves, and both times running from him did little to nothing. He stuns and runs very fast, so your chances of getting away are pretty much nil............not to mention that I don't think he has an aggro range (ie: he'll just keep following you)

He also dropped the mail gloves of restoration that were mentioned above and the bag.

My party killing him. Shows loot.

Commento di Sinvala

Killed him yesterday as a 70 enhance shammy with a 73 mage. He hits hard, but I could keep the healing up and between our pets and us we got him. He dropped the same mail gloves as before, and the bag. Seems like his loot is fairly fixed.

Commento di 248117

80 warrior - didn't even drop me 1%...just stood there with the standard attack taking pictures O.o, which i'll try to post in a moment.

Found him at 20.9, 72.2

Dropped: Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Bandit and Abandoned Adventurer's Satchel

Solo'ed Him as a 71 Prot pally.
Took me about 19 minutes (had 11 left on 30 minute buff), and alot of seal judging and bubble first aids, to get him down.

He was hitting me for 1k plus (regular hits).
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Thunderhorn&n=Malefactor

Was a nice thrill, but to see an achievement pop was even cooler.

Commento di 284527

Just killed him at 22, 72; just south of Conquest Hold. He's definitely not as easy as most of the rares, but still doable.

Commento di aberdonian

Soloed this guy at 4.19 am server time on Bronzebeard EU, first I knew he was there was him pounding on me as I was fishing died that time, ressed, came back, ate a food buff popped all cooldowns on my mage, and let him smash my water elemental down, as i stood way back and frostbolted him, never got close to the second time. He does hit very hard on cloth lots of damage.

As mentioned cannot be rooted or slowed so frost nova does nothing. Dropped the blue gloves of the forseer, 664 armor, 36 intellect, 36 haste rating and 42 spell power.

Commento di 256123

Managed to solo as a 74 Holy Pally. I ran into this guy just north of Conquest Hold. He hit me for an average of about 1k, but i was able to keep my health up with heals. Took about 2 minutes to solo him, and he IS vulnerable to HoJ. I did have to use my bubble when he crit'd me twice in a row. He dropped Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Thief and an Abandoned Adventurer's Satchel. The satchel contained 19g, 20 Frostweave Cloth, and 4 Crystallized Earth.

Commento di cywang86

Found him patrolling the forest south of Conquer Hold.
He runs pretty fast so make at least 2 laps if you intend on searching for him.

Commento di 295664

Found him right after 2am on Korgath, much like the times I find most of my rare spawns-on the hour. Watched for a good 5 minutes, he patted up and around the northwest of Conquest Hold, and to the north of the troll ruins. 13,56 to around 14,50 just south of the alliance camp.

Commento di 295990

Solo as a 74 enhancement shaman. Drop earth elemental and let him tank while using maelstrom weapon to heal him. Pop feral spirit and bloodlust but save shamanistic rage in case you pull aggro or run out of mana. He hits really hard (about1-1.5k) but you can burn him down if you go all out dps.

Commento di sl0Puffman

This guy is pretty small for a giant, and he does indeed have a pretty swift stride. Killed him at 14, 53, south of Granite Springs. Easy to kill at 80 for most classes I'd wager.

Good luck.

Commento di 244367

Found at 13,47 on Drak'Tharon at 9:30am server time. Collecting Haze Leaf for a quest when he marched right in front of me.

Commento di 74836

I would like to put something forward here and see if there is anything in it, any comments from you would be helpfull.

I have killed this NPC several times now but the strange thing is for the last 5 times now it has been immediately after killing Scarlet Highlord Daion in Dragonblight, wether she was at one of the Northern or the Southern pad. Grocklar however has always been at the North West pad straight across the river from Daion's Northern pads. Could this be that they share the same spawn time, or that they share the same timer and have just got in sync. The comments from other servers would be helpfull. I won't say which server I am on for now. Thank you

Incidently, Vyragosa was stolen from under my nose, 5 mins before my last encounter with Daion and Grocklar when I lost agro and someone else tagged her, just thought I'd add that incase of any other similarities.

Addition.
The next time Vyragosa was killed (that I witnessed that is) after patch, I flew to Dragonblight and couldn't find the Scarlet Highlord but sure enough Grocklars corps was in Grizzly Hills.

Addition.
The timers indeed are looking like from kill not spawn, after doing a round of SP 3 X 18 hr after the last Vyragosa/Grocklar encounter I found Grocklar alive in GH, no sign of Scarlet so a quick hightail up to SP only to find TLPD (who we know is definately sharing pops with Vyragosa) had spawned while I was doing a quick SP round. Dead right on the spawn point. 3 X 18 hr + 1 hr exactly.

Commento di BluExocet

Found at 28,41 (Grizzly Hills) at 7:43 pm on Destromath. Granted 38,824 (+19,412 rested) experience. Dropped "of the Sorcerer" gloves.

Granted I blew my CD's at the start and was lagging, he managed to get me down pretty low as a prot warrior. It was a close call.

Commento di 284709

Commento di Ferus

Affl lock (74) solo'd with voidwalker. Make sure not to dot too much and just spam health funnel. Barring unlucky crits your voidy will yoyo a bit but shouldn't die. Make sure to hit the mob once as always or you won't get credit. Worth 43k rested exp.

Commento di 123042

Full route of one of its patrolling paths; the most west and southeast pins are terminals.

Commento di Usada

Killed as a 75 Elemental Shaman.

Found him on my way to Silverbrook accidentally pulled one of them Wolves that was patrolling.

He hits for over 2k and i'm sitting at about 11k armour with a shield.

Although he can't be kited, he can be stunned, which my Improved Fire Nova Totem helped tremendously. I kept water shield up and spam healed myself constantly. I had Mana Spring Totem, Stoneskin Totem, and Wrath of Air Totem down.

Whenever I had sufficient health to DPS, I cast Flame Shock/Lava Burst combo, and then resumed to healing.

Commento di 162903

Just soloed as a level 75 RESTO shaman, popped fire elemental, and eventually heroism although that was probably unnecessary. Got my achievement too!

Commento di Gundy

Caught this guy with my 80 BE Pally. He was chasing after an ally DK, easily duo'd with my wife BE Hunter. Got Northern Exposure and Killed an ally at the same time!

He dropped the gloves and the sachel.

Commento di Wowvocate

Keep in mind if you're hunting this guy down, he's smaller than you would think and moves swiftly, which can make pinning him down difficult.

Commento di 232653

More coords...walked in on him at 12:20 server time at 13,47
Easy to kill as a druid tank...Good loot

Commento di Ajelio

I found him on 13,52. And he took like 1.2k each hit on plate

Commento di Zuleria

Killed this guy near granite springs easy solo by 76 ret pally. Got 40k exp with rested ^^

Commento di 9388

Killed it as Blood DK (75)
Frost Presence and quest gear.
Death Strike, Heart Strike, and Death Coil spam + Ghoul. Used Imp Rune Tap, but I ended the fight with 80% health, so I guess I didn't need it.

Commento di 360684

Found him yesterday walking back and forth in an area. I killed him around 13.7,53.1.

He hits really hard, and I only got him down to 7K health on my first attempt. Just because I didn't want to be jealous, I brought my friend along, and invited someone else in the area, so that they could both get the Achievement.

Hoping to find Syreian the Bonecarver or Seething Hate today, so I'll add my comments as I kill them.

Happy hunting. :]

Commento di 361981

i soloed it as a lvl 74DK and he drops a bag that contains ca.22g and some crystalized things and some frostweave cloth

Commento di 321058

No lvl 80 is going to get a sweat killing this one.

Recieved the gloves and 20g....a nice little bonus which I picked up on my way to a Q.

I wish I could bump into him everyday :)

Commento di 69709

Found him at 21, 58 today as I was just running north to finish a quest. Soloed him as a level 76 Enhancement Shaman.. not that it matters much, but just to confirm he isn't to be approached with so much caution.

Commento di Lightsabr2

Found him not far north of Conquest hold. Dude moves fast and was immune to my stuns and slows as a frost mage. Didn't take me long to start the run-back.

Commento di 181601

Just killed him as an ele shaman at level 80. He hits 1000s and does a knockback. Easily downed him He dropped "of the necromancer" for me. In the satchel he dropped 22 gold and a stack of frostweave. Happy Farming

Commento di 388209

found him right below the path in front of conquest hold just patroling, moves pretty fast for a big guy lvl 80 fire mage easy kill does hit hard but easy to solo

Commento di whitehusky

I ran into him southwest of Granite Springs today. He was a level 74 rare elite with about 40,000 HP. He was hitting me hard on my level 77 Paladin, so I definitely recommend anyone wearing cloth or leather to get a friend for help. I thought I was going to die a couple of times. I was rewarded with the satchel, some Hunter/Shaman mail gloves, and over 40,000 exp (rested bonus). His corpse despawned within 5 minutes of the kill.

Commento di valorum

Found at (13.1, 47.1). Dropped Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Marksman and 16g / 20 frostweave.

Commento di 396311

Found him a little northwest of conquest hold. was lagging like hell, but it still went down pretty easy. Hit me for 1600 on 5K armor, dropped "of the necromancer", 16g and 20 frostweave cloth.

Commento di 54028

Was checking Vordrassils's Tears for Seething Hate when I got a positive on him with my Frostbitten macro, and he was just north of it. Right as I was about to land however, he just flat out disappeared. Roved around other known sightings on the map here, and found him a few minutes later just south of Conquest Hold across the road, towards Venture Bay.

Commento di Purrrple

I accidentally stumbled across this giant just now directly north of Conquest Hold as I was flying to Howling Fjord.

Was able to loot a Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Thief and also an Abandoned Adventurer's Satchel which contained 23g 16s 19c and a stack of Frostweave Cloth.

Finally got Northern Exposure after stumbling across Nuramoc a week ago and getting Medium Rare too. Woot!

Commento di 177035

Weirdest thing happened, my _NPCScan mod went off and had alerted me to this guys presences, after checking spawn points I finally found him, as I clicked and set to focus, he dissapeared =/

Has this happened to anyone else?

Commento di 23justin

Found him just now on Mannoroth, a little west of Amberpine Lodge. When I killed him he dropped a bag with 20g and a stack of Frostweave, along with those mail gloves. Easily soloed as a 73 frost DK, I popped all my tanking abilities, Unbreakable Armor and Icebound Fortitude. I also used Death Pact.

Commento di 333840

Jonnerzz, the exact same thing happened to me. I cant help but wonder if the addon is bugging because after npc scan went off, I looked all over for him by his spawn points and found nothing, not even a corpse.

Commento di 136091

Soloable as a 76 Feral Druid. Started in cat for pounce shred mangle and rip, and finished off in bear. I popped frenzied regen just incase, but I probably wouldn't have needed it. He does stun though.

Just be careful of aggroing something else while you kill him.

He looks great, and he sure is a rare one.

Commento di StaticLgtBrngr

I found this guy about 30 mins ago on my 80 mage, npc scan picked him up.

He hits for a ton due to some stacking buff he has and he moves very quickly, he killed me the first time when I tried to kite him, immune to slow.

I got him the second time though using my mirror images as a distraction and spamming arcane blast till he went down, finished him with an arcane barrage right as he killed my last mirror image copy.

Dropped exactly the items already listed above, the gloves had hunter / stabby shammy stats on them.

As a caster soloing this guy seems to be all in the pull though high armor classes shouldn't have much trouble with him.

Commento di lock101

Just ran into this guy on my 77 hunter. He does hit pretty hard, but over all, easy fight for me a 77 hunter, just sent in my pet(Loque'Nahak) to tank and used my pets Cd's and just kept mend pet up. Kept serpent sting up and arcane shot when ever it was up other than that, just spammed steady. Dropped the satchel with some gold in it and Mail gloves - of the Bandit.

Commento di Shieva

Just ran into this guy at 28,41 but by the time I got up to him he had despawned (litterally a few seconds) so I went just south of Conquest Hold to 17,70 and manged to find him again. Soloed with 75 Enhancement Shammy he had around 40k HP and granted me 34k XP

Commento di kmoney

Just killed this guy. 74 Unholy DK Herbalist in quest rewards and Frost Presence.

Popped Lifeblood, Death Pact, and a Runic pot, and spammed Death Strike. Got 41800 XP (+20900 rested). If only we had Wintergrasp for that kill ;)

Commento di 218642

Found near Amberpine Lodge and he dropped https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=44675 as well as a stack of frostweave and 18 gold.

Commento di 47217

just solo'd this guy on my 75 shammy, earth elemental tanked.

interesting note tho, he gave me 47458xp (23729 rested), wonder if all the rares give this same insane rate of xp!

Commento di Luckiest13

I was doing my Venture Bay dailies today at 3:30PM (MTN-ST) and my Silver Dragon went off. I raced into the woods to find him, he was patrolling between the snow on the river at and the river at around .
He runs very swiftly, I had to mount my epic flyer just to catch up with him.
He also hits pretty hard (5k non evasion crits). His knockdown could probaby mess anyone up if they wern't expecting it.
Had to have my friend help me with him, I tagged him, got him to 50% before he stunned him to death.
Granted 49,420 experience.
Dropped 25g, 20 Frostweave Cloth and 8 assorted crystallized motes. Also blue gloves, Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Foreseer.

Commento di 281295

For anyone wanting to bring him to Conquest Hold, don't bother - the guards don't attack him.

Commento di Examine

Just killed him today on my 76 Paladin as I flew over on a FP and ran to get him. Granting a Whopping 46892 Experiance with Rested and 2 peice BOA exp bonus. Be sure to not pass this up!

Commento di 447938

Hits surprisingly fast and hard. As a lvl 80 mage in ilvl 245 gear, I was taking 2k damage punches every second. He got me from 17.8k hp to 7k before he was dead.

Haven't been up against Icehorn and Aotona yet, but so far Grocklar, King Krush and Dirkee have definitely been the hardest rares to solo.

Commento di focalenergy

Okay, I found this guy about an hour and a half after I "missed" Arcturis spawning, I was literally AFK, but came back to my keyboard 20min after 3pm PST, to see NPCscan had alerted me of Arcturis. So i went looking for Grocklar, and killed him at:

Coords: 15.5, 70.0
Time: 4:24 PST
Server: Velen

I had actually found Grocklar just a bit east of those coordinates, but i died the first time I tried to kill him cause I had no pet out and was trying to kite him, and well I was out of mana. lol.

Now I'm not completely sure it was an Arcturis spawning, as it could have easily been another hunter going by with Arcturis out, as his pet. But I do know I went AFK at the hour, and 20min later i came back and NPCscan had gone off, and most sighting's I've heard of occur at or around the hour. Which makes sense, if I found Grocklar patrolling his southern pattern, just an hour or so after

Commento di Danielfboone

Killed him at 12:15AM on Draka at coordinates 25,57

Commento di 465890

Been camping his spawnpoints with 2 others(3 spawn points) last 4 days or more, he has yet to show.

Ofc, we are not looking at the screen 24/7, we have the _NPCScan addons but we have yet to get him this way.

So, so far one of the most hard to get for Frostbitten in our opinion.

Commento di 456093

NPC Scan found this one. Tried to solo it with my lvl 74 mage, but I died in 5 seconds. Like posted above, he hits hard and fast. Also moves fast aswell, took him less then two seconds to reach me after I hit him.
I stalked him while looking for someone to help me with him. There was only one other player in Grizzly Hills at that moment (a warrior). We killed it togheter.

Commento di 430275

Well i met this guy accidentally when i was trying to evacuate from Venture Bay with Horde players chasing me. For some reason, i could not go out of combat even i have vanished so i continued in stealth north of Venture Bay till i could go out of combat and mount.

And suddenly that big guy hitted me from behind!

Although i had only 2400 health out of 21K due to the PVP fighting before, i popped all cooldowns just to kill him and i did it with 800 health left.

Now i need the Time-Lost Proto Drake for the Frostbitten acheivement!

Killed giant at 12:45 am today at aroung 19. 71 in Grizzly Hills, Steamwheedle Cartel EU

Commento di Toyotacamry

found at ~9:20 server time up far north by the river. right as i was about to engage, he disappeared but, having read this page for some reason, i realized that he probably ported to the south near venture bay. sure enough, i flew down there and found him just south of conquest hold. i engaged and he beat the sh*t out of me (75 arcane mage), so i whispered a DK in the zone and we duo'ed him no problem. hits like a truck, runs fast, can't be slowed.

Commento di 556388

Just got him my scanner yet again freaked the holy mess out of me, he's my 5th for the achieve Frostbitten.

Around 14, 52 on my mini maps coords. Kinda strolling about the worgs. South of Granite Springs. Yay, the hopes of getting this achieve seems less impossible.

Commento di 567135

yeah i found him yesterday on my 80 arcane mage barley killed him he hits so hard he dropped rare gloves plus the bag had 20+gold and 20 frost weave.

Commento di Siton

Solo'd by a level 73 enhancement shaman. Wolves, Fire Elemental, Heroism and all the shabang.

Manageable with questing gear.

Commento di chromesamurai

Found him today directly north of Conquest Hold.

Commento di 501553

soloed him as a level 75 shaman. it's definitly possible but it sure as hell isn't easy.
i had to use everything i had including spiritwolves, bloodlust and blood fury.

note: the most important thing is to take him when there are no mobs around him

note 2: if you happen to have a pet, make sure your pet tanks because he hits prety hard

Commento di Teenka

got 46,5k xp rested for killing him at my 76 rogue. not too difficult to solo

Commento di 251705

Found him tonight north of Conquest Hold and soloed him on my 72 demonology lock. That's of course saying him I soloed him with a level 90 of any other class, but you get the point. Dropped the Pinky Cover of the Bandit and gave 53.5k experience with rested and both heirloom bonuses. Just sent in the Felguard, and dotted him up in between Health Funnels. Easy peasy.

Commento di Allakhazam

Found him around 12,53 in Grizzly Hills.
He had just under 42k health, and hits pretty hard.
Solo'd him as a 74 Hunter, but had to keep heals up on pet all the time.

Dropped:
*Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of Restoration
*Abandones Adventurer's Satchel (which had 23g, 10x Crsytalised Water/Life & 20 Frostweave Cloth

Gave me 43,000 Exp which was also a nice bonus ;-)

Commento di Allakhazam

Commento di Allakhazam

Found him on a short patrol south of Granite Springs in Grizzly Hills. Level 74 Elite Giant, 41k health, dropped An Adventurers Sack containing 18g and 20 Frostweave cloth as well as a BOE Blue Rock-Giant's Pinky Cover of the Thief

Commento di Allakhazam

He patrols along the shoreline both north and south of Granite Springs. He has around 42k health and hits like a truck. I was only able to solo him (75 spriest) because he can be stunned. Dropped a blue boe , 20 frostweave, and 16g.

Grocklar
