This mob is annoying because he is immune to any magic attacks, Wanding can work for a little help for the dps.. other than that its reasonably easy with 3-5 decent class group builds.

I tried to solo this guy as a level 70 druid. I discovered that he became invincible at 1% health. Mobhealth estimated he had under 300 health left, but i hit him for about 2000 damage at that point and he was still at 1%. He "took" the damage but wouldn't die.

It turns out that killing him is part of a quest and that for some reason you have to use an item to kill him. There's no -warning- about this. Go figure.

On youtube, there are several videos of this guy being kited to Stormwind.Of course, chaos ensued until he despawned :)

Comentado por 50728

He's got servants all along Blasted Lands (specially western part), and they are also unkillable until you have the item to do so.

Comentado por 84061

Tried soloing with my 63 hunter, came to find out that he gets down to about 1% and stays there, died twice before finding this out -_-' figures.

Why does the Fel Salve and/or the weapon gotten from the Enchanted Azsharite Fel Weaponry quest stop working after it's been casted on him a few times?

A 61 Fury Warrior and a 67 Holy Priest were unable to take him down, even though the warrior was using the weapon and had the salve, it's effect stopped working after three or four times.

Is it a bug? Or are you only supposed to use it a few times while being able to take him down? That's insane.

Comentado por Tamarzan

I just took him down alone as a 70 affliction lock. Used all my fel salve charges (5). Sent VW at him to get aggro. Took him down with shadow bolts + my VW sacrifice. My point is that he is NOT immune to all spells. Shadowbolt works for locks, maybe it works from something else as well.

Comentado por Jerodast

FYI rogues, as far as I can tell he's immune to all stuns/incapacitates, which made him WAY harder to solo in mid-60s than your average 58 elite.

Comentado por tale

Not immune to all magic; just did it on my frost mage and though he was immune to my frost and fire spells, he wasn't to arcane missiles or, strangely, to my water elemental's waterbolt.

Comentado por Pixie

Just tried him as a balance druid. He is immune to moonfire and insect swarm, but not starfire or wrath, so I think it's just dots that he's immune to (which may be the problem some of the locks above ran into).

Couldn't get him down past 1% since I don't have the quest item, but since he doesn't hit that hard (400 in moonkin form, with 12k armour) and I can heal and melee for mana, the battle could potentially have gone on forever. (As it was, I just ran out of the keep, and he reset.)

Comentado por asmodai

Just a note for those doing the quest:

you need to bring him to that mentioned 1% and then use the weapon and finish him off.

Grol the Destroyer is a level 58 elite named demon warlord located at the Dreadmaul Hold in the northwest of the Blasted Lands. Although once an ogre, Grol is now in fact a demon.

Lore

He is one of three (along with Archmage Allistarj and Lady Sevine) who pledged allegiance to Razelikh, who in return granted them land, an endless life as long as they remain in the Blasted Lands and now must protect and serve him. He is the leader of the Dreadmaul Ogres, a small tribe of ogres isolated in the Blasted Lands. When The Fallen Hero of the Horde and his team ventured into the Blasted Lands they got captured, now his comrades are forced to be endless servants of Archmage Allistarj, Lady Sevine, and Grol.

Combat Info

He has a small stun knockback ability. He cannot be killed unless you follow The Fallen Hero of the Horde's questline and have gained a Enchanted Azsharite Felbane weapon, which you must proceed to use on him in order to kill him.

Apparantly, you can still grind up your weapon skills on this guy. Unlike the Servents, who were changed so that you couldn't skill up on them anymore.

Comentado por Beatriz

For other mages who are doing this at 80 for the Loremaster achievement, if you pop mirror images, they'll do most of the work for you.

Comentado por 316950

This guy is great if you want to level your weapon skills for the achievement

Comentado por 204739

apparently you can only curse him 5 times with the azsharite weapon.

Comentado por jahf

Agreed. He's absolutely wonderful for leveling up your weapon skills. At 80 he wasn't able to outdamage my Ret Paladin's Seal of Light. Should be easy for most professions to actively outheal.

If you've got passive HoTs you can just put them on, clear the room of ads, attack Grol and then do something else until the ads pop. Then just clear them and repeat. If you have good hots or an occasional healbot then you won't even need to worry about ads.

He may reset on occasion, just fire up attacks again. Been trying to find a good weapon leveling target, this was it.

Comentado por sasosi

I went there as a lvl 80 DK with 0 skill in 3 weapons, I was able to get them all to 400 since he doesn't die.

Comentado por 377733

For casters out there who are annoyed with the magic immunity, try spells that were added after Vanilla. As a mage, I found that these mobs were not immune to BC-spells like Ice Lance and Water Elemental.

Comentado por Kimoshi

For hunters looking to level their ranged weapon skill, or a warlock their wands, he does a knockback that causes the target to lose 100% of their threat, so good luck there. You might be better served with Lady Sevine, who is also in Blasted Lands.

Comentado por 49555

This mob still works perfect for leveling weapon skill.

Comentado por seancwatson

If you use this guy to level your weapon skill and plan on going afk, it is wise to back up against the wall. Here's a pic

Comentado por Zephinism

Soloed at level 60 as a Survival Hunter. I'd advise concusive shot and frost trap, when he gets too close to you instead of your pet simply feign death, let him get back on your pet and resume killing him. His blows hit for about 320~ whilst healing to your pet is 365.

Comentado por Flagg

Soloed as a 57 prot warrior using shield block, health pot, shield wall, shield block, last stand
Not easy, killed at 4th try. "Use" the quest weapon every time its effects fade, he seems to do less damage while the effects is on.
(stuns doesn't work so no time for first aid)

Comentado por 318094

Soloed as a level 59 frost mage.

Chill effects can be applied to him, but they do not seem to affect his movement speed. What does this mean? He can't be slowed, but he can proc your necessary frost effects for the burst required to take him down.

Here's what I did:

After clearing the room of trash, I summoned my water elemental and buffed up. Chose frost armor for the armor and drank an elixir of superior defense. I popped Ice Barrier and Mana Shield, then had my water elemental stay on one side of the room while I went to the opposite. I waited till Ice Barrier had 35 seconds left before pulling (to ensure that I could immediately cast it again when the first one inevitably broke. I also had my water elemental cooldown wear off so I wouldn't need Cold Snap to resummon it the first time it dies (and it will die at least once during this fight).

I had my elemental start the pull and then I immediately began casting while it was finishing its water bolt. The trick here is to have Grol dance back and forth between you and your elemental for a few seconds, buying a bit more time before either of you takes damage. if done right, your pet's water bolt will hit, drawing aggro, your frost bolt will hit, drawing aggro back, and then your pet's second water bolt will hit, taking aggro away again. Once your pet has aggro once more, blink to behind grol and use the staff to weaken him. Then, pop icy veins and frostbolt spam like your life depends on it. If done correctly, you will be the first knocked back (no way grol won't aggro a hastened you) and your ice barrier will be broken by now, giving your pet full threat and you a new Ice Barrier to cast. Be ready to reapply the staff's effect once it wears off and continue as planned. Save Cold Snap for one of the following (your elemental's second death, your second ice barrier breaking before the cooldown wears off, or Icy Veins wearing off) and keep on wailing at him.

He will fall eventually. I remember this one being easier on my priest, though, as she could heal and her fears actually kept him at bay (yes, I do remember him being fearable, and yes, that fight took a LONG time, much longer than on my mage for obvious healer vs. dps reasons). What I'm glad about though is that I got to test my mettle against him before 60, so I can safely say that Deep Freeze would have been a nice FoF asset but is not required.

Revisiting this fight, I also suspect that non-plate DPS will have the easiest time against Sevine, tanks and dps plate will have the easiest time against Grol (this one), and healers will likely have the easiest time against Allistarj. But this last part is just a hunch I have.

Comentado por Vladi1q1

Leveled my unarmed skill on this guy.If your a pally here's a tip use Seal of Light so you dont have to worry about HP.

Comentado por Thottbot

You will need to use the weapons that you obtained from the last quest to weaken this guy. He starts of really tall and he can crit you for 1800 or so. When you hit him with your staff or use it on him it makes him weaker. Make sure you kill him before the curse no longer works or he will just slaughter your group.

Comentado por Thottbot

This guy has a bad habit of getting stuck in an unatttackable evade state. We're all paging GMs, but nothing so far. :P

Comentado por Thottbot

Yes. You need a special weapon forged by Galvan. This is part of a very long series of quests. Please read my comments under the quest "The Disgraced One" quest for complete quest line.

Comentado por Thottbot

We had a 5-man group all on the Razelikh chain go to kill this guy last night; nothing doing. He was standing still in one spot inside Dreadmaul. No agg, reported Evade on all attacks and didn't counterattack. Bugged, in other words. Sent the petition and logged; haven't relogged to check status yet.

The other two quest mobs had no such problems. Sevine and Allistarj were still active and killable, and we nailed them without incident.

Comentado por Thottbot

Somebody pulled that thing into Ironforge on frostmourne and we showed it the city for about an hour before it went down. I think it was bugged since it's not likely that a whole town chases that thing and it wont die for an hour?

anyway, pics avaible: http://clanxp.cl.funpic.de/wow/mob/

Comentado por Thottbot

The reason he was trolled around the city for ages and probably the reason he was drawn there in the first place (by some cunning Hordie, no doubt) is that you need a special weapon to kill him

An above suggestion intrigues me: what if knocking the servants down to a spectral form does actually weaken him? He does kick like a mule...

Beebop

Comentado por Thottbot

Got a screenshot of him fighting bolvar and the guards but dont know how to submit it >.< stupid me can someone tell me so i can stick this screenie up?

Comentado por Thottbot

Enslavable? Looks like that's how he got to Ironforge, but I am SURE I am wrong. Anyone know if you need more than one quest weapon to keep him weak enough to kill? Or will mine do it if I have a decent group? Obviously you need it when he is close to death, but the cooldown is 3 min, and doubt the debuff lasts that long. Getting a group together for this will be hard for a ronin like me.

Comentado por Thottbot

Officially leashed to the Badlands as of patch 1.11.

Comentado por Thottbot

That would be amazing considering he is in Blasted Lands!

Comentado por Thottbot

I think he's leashed to his little building now too.

Tried to solo him as a hunter, but he's just got too much health and hits too hard.

Managed the other two demons (Lady Sevine was just barely doable) solo.

Comentado por Thottbot

I was farming mageweave cloth and ran into this guy on my 70 combat rogue. Hes immune to stuns, but otherwise easy to take down to 1%. I sat there and kept beating on him for a bit. He was accepting the damage, but he stays at 1%. Im pretty sure theres a special weapon thats needed to finish him off. Havent checked the quest line yet.

Edit -

The Servant of Grols are the same way. Theres a couple surrounding Grol's building.

Comentado por Thottbot

Warlocks, use Shadow Bolt! He is immune to everything else. I finally soloed him as a 65 lock. I used my Felguard and healed him a few times and only weakened Grol a few times. I was doing about 1000-1600 dmg per shadowbolt hit. Felguard ended up dying but I wanted to kill him with my last cast of sb. Luckily my felguard maintained aggro. This is after trying to kill this guy 10+ times and dying b/c I didn't know shadowbolt worked.

Comentado por Thottbot

how could ur felguard hold aggro? I tried for hrs and grol always turned his target to me ... even if I m only half of my pet's aggro on omen...

Comentado por Thottbot

I was doing the servants quest earlier today and stumbled into the hold. I wasn't paying attentiona and didn't realize Grol was there. I killed the weaker ogres, but he shredded my pet.

I didn't realize that it was part of the bigger quest chain, and figured he just caught me by surprise, so I tried again, my 56 Hunter against Grol, who is a 58 elite. Even with all my tricks, I only got him to half health before he came after me (and he was about to kill my pet, again). I fled for my life and got away.

The point is that Grol does not seem to have been affected by the recent elite nerf. An elite 2 levels higher should have been tough but doable for a solo hunter (at least to get him to the 1%, since I didn't have the quest item), but it wasn't. He is obviously still at full strength. I assume that's also true for the other bosses in this chain.

Comentado por Thottbot

never having been here before i knew nothing of this quest till just reading it here im a 75 hunter wondering around bored i let my pet play with him while i looked up why he wont die , its been at least 10 min ive played dead 2wice now and my pets still holding him at 1% lol maybe ill go to sleep see how they are getting along in the morning lol

Comentado por Thottbot

I'm trying to solo this on my 53 warrior and i don't think its possible

Comentado por Thottbot

I tried to kill him with my 68 grindingspecced shadowpriest. (and i got the weapon+salve). I thought i should be able to solo him at this point, but experience has proven me wrong.

First of all he is immune to all types of DOTs and instant spells that the priest have, including holy fire- even though the DOT is only a small portion of the damage (reducing the priest arsenal to Mindblast, Smite, and Mindflay).

I got him downto 50% mostly using mindflay before i ran out of mana and had to run before hitpoints went out. The PowerWord:Shield alone is not enough to keep me safe from damage. At this level it is possible that a disc specced priest would stand a better chance surviving with the PW:S, but im not sure, as it depends on wether the shadowform does reduce damage to the shield too.

I admit i did not try shadowword death, but it would have been such a waste as i can crit maximum of slighlty above 2k, and it would hurt me that much too if i don't kill him with it.

If i timed all my spells right and did all things perfect there is a slight chance i would be able to down him at this point, although i beleieve it still is pointless to try for another 2 or 3 levels

Comentado por Thottbot

I killed all the Orges in his immediate area (level 54's if I remember correctly) then took Grol down to a single hit point.
Despite damaging him, I couldn't get rid of his last hit point.
I ended up just leaving him to recover.
(I didn't have any kind of quest chain for him or special weapon to use).

I am a level 64 Paladin.

Comentado por Thottbot

GREAT for weapon skill up since he does not die!
All the way to 400

Comentado por Thottbot

Is it just me, or does the weapon you need to use on the bosses in this chain have a limited number of shots per attempt?

I just tried soloing Grol twice as a lvl 62 'lock using an approach of having the Felguard tank and primarily concentrating on healing him, while Shadow Bolting here and there. But when I get Grol down to 3/4 or so, the weapon effect doesn't seem to work anymore. Very frustrating, as I've was *thiiiiis* close to taking him down the second time around. If I'd had one more use of the weapon it would have been a done deal.

If there *are* a limited number of uses per try, it would be nice to know so others avoid the frustration I just experienced.

Comentado por Thottbot

As a lvl 60 warlock this dude is impossible to solo

Comentado por Thottbot

what the hell? he wont die!

Comentado por Thottbot

What's going on? I'm a lvl 66 bal druid and just wasted 6 elixirs on him. He had no health left at all and i had most of mine but he smashed me, is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? I used the staff at the right time, I think, he just won't die!

Comentado por Thottbot

I soloed him with my 60 Pally and used the sword that was supposed to kill him. First, I cleared all other ogres in the door and around him and took him on. I had to use full heal 4 times but got him down to nothing and then hit him with exorcism and hammer or wrath and he still lived to kill me. I don't know how or what it takes, the special sword did weaken him, but did not kill him.

Comentado por Thottbot

The only way to kill Grol is to have the objective to kill him in a quest. As a level 80 Orc Hunter, I have spent the last 2 hours leveling up ALL of my weapon skills on him, bringing him down to 1 health and him never dying. He alternates his strikes between my pet and I.

He doesn't have to be shrunk at the point where he dies. You do not have to continually re-shrink him. The shrinking ability is a fairly long channel, so it might not be worth the reduced damage to even make the attempt, unless you are a second person who has the free time.

He's tough, even with the weapon. I'm a 60 resto shaman with AQ40 epix and I had to burn a number of consumables just to get him down to around 20% and then I couldn't finish the job because I had maxed out the special weapon ability. Bring some DPS as you only get to weaken him 5 or 6 times before he becomes immune.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Have the Felbane Sword quest item needed to kill this guy, but he is really tough. General strategy would be to beat him down with your regular weapon until he is low on health, then switch weapons during combat using the Felbane sword that you receive as part of an eariler quest chain. You must click on the sword to activate it's special qualities during the last part of the combat, so hot key it might be the best way to go. Once you click on the sword, the guy shrinks down to your size and you can deal damage. However, the shrinking effect can only be used a few times before it stops being effective, so don't start using it too early.

Bottom line, switch weapons when Grol is low on health (less than 5%), and
Click on the weapon during combat to shrink Grol and deal the final death blows

Nothing else works, the guy is invulnerable to death otherwise.

Comentado por Allakhazam

He's part of a really long quest chain to kill some tough boss mobs in Blasted Lands. However, some people like to get him to chase them into Stormwind or Ironforge to wreak havoc. Which is why I find the maps of his location above hilarious : )

You need a special quest weapon to do damage to him, and if the person with that weapon is being a bastard and just watching the carnage unfold, you're in for a long day.

At the end of the quest chain you get some really sweet rewards, including a 16 slot bag and a trinket called Demon's Blood.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Lol maxed out every single skill on him. Had to go buy a couple of white tho because I didn't have a weapon for a cetain skill.

I got him to 1% but he will NOT die.
Yes he is immune to fire and frost.
I tried kiteing him. He runs back once you are near the 1st tower.
Hits for 300-400 on a lvl 70 with 40% reduced
Does a knock back for around 250
Also stuns you for a few seconds.

Can confirm as of 03/09/2023, Grol does still allow you to level up Weapon Skills. Got maces, axes and unarmed from 350 to 400 on my shaman.

Your Azsharite weapon works only 7 times, so you need enough dps, otherwise he'll come at you at full power after 7 times
