Usually have the best luck finding these near the northern coast. They have long paths and extremely annoying to find when you actually need to kill one.

Kommentar von Hoticehunter

What are these guys used for?

Kommentar von blabbo

This guy and his counterpart can pop-up and interfere with essentially every quest in Desolace.

Be careful.

Kommentar von Thottbot

anyone got any hints about how to find this guy?

Kommentar von Thottbot

He was pretty simple, and im only a lvl 36 shadow priest.

Just try not to get any adds from all the other monsters around.

Exune~

Kommentar von Thottbot

If your a hunter just use track giants but other then that just swim up and down the ocean i found tons of them like that before i could track.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just saw him just outside the Aliance base

Kommentar von Thottbot

why's it seem like i can't find one and everybody else sees them everywhere?

i've looked everywhere that was recommended with no results. can somebody give me specific coords, plz?

Kommentar von Thottbot

where do u find him?

Kommentar von Thottbot

=(o.0)=
I sow him at 66,53
It seems he just walking where he wont to walk! =) In Desolace

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've been doing SM for a couple of days, one to finish up a few quests, and again to get the Illusionary Rod. So I've been pretty used to high elites now. This giant was pretty easy, though. solo'd it with my 40 Druid; had to root him in place, hit him with a few starfire spells, few moonfire, went into Dire Bear form (was a bad choice) then back into human form and finished him off with a few moonfire. healed once.

I'd advised against it, though, he didn't drop any good loot so don't go out of your way to find him :\

Kommentar von Thottbot

He dropped a clam for me, had a golden pearl and black pearl inside. w00t. golden pearl 40g on m server, 5g for the black pearl. not bad at all imo

Kommentar von Thottbot

There's no specific location where he can be...he wanders all over desolace. The day I discovered Desolace I found him in between Sargeron (the satyr base) and the centaur camps. Today I killed him (soloed, level 39 orc hunter), and he was going towards Shadowprey Village, across the road from Uthek the Wise in the Gelkis camp. I've also seen him on the very edge of the coast north of SPV, where the Naga are, right on the edge of the water. Unless you're a hunter and you can Track Giants, it will be very difficult looking for the giant; you'll simply have to let him come to you.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found him by Kormek's Hut. I've seen him there 1-2 times before, and that's the only place I've ever found him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

he is usually in the water around 32,30. He's by those naga in the water by the shore mostly walking around near the coast.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Jesus Christ guys, filling the thread up with boasts is just @#$%.

If you must, at least add what strategy you used, coz this guys hits HARD, and I'm big enough to admit it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

39,23

Found a Deepstrider Searcher at these co-ords, which also drops the tumor. He was wandering on the shore, looked like he was heading into the water.

Didn't see a Giant at 32,30, but glad I found this guy.

Kommentar von Thottbot

ok you wanted tips. well I cant give much but I killed him pretty easily with my 38 lock. My tips actually will probably only help an affliction spec lock. I dotted him up then used drain life a bunch of times and just had my felhunter attack it. I made sure to be soulstoned and have a healthstone handy. I used my HS but I didn't need the SS.

Kommentar von Thottbot

oh and make sure to use shadow bold every time you go into shadow trance

Kommentar von Thottbot

They walk all around Desolace. youll find them mostly on roads

Kommentar von Thottbot

-found him on the coast near ethel rethor, desolace.
just took him out wit my 36 hunter
-does some pretty seriosly damage around 150 - 200
-drops are pretty bad

Kommentar von Thottbot

I know about 3 places where I've seen them wandering:
1st near Shadowpray Village at around 38,78. (This is where I killed mine).
2nd near Ethel Rethor (sometimes in the water) at around 36,23.
3rd near Kormek's Hut at around 63,36.

Hope that helps, I think since they wander about you could wait at one of these places for one to show up.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Found him on the top right side of Ranazjar Isle and again later to the southeast of the Valley of Spears.

Took him out both times with some difficulty on my 41 pally. Bubbled the first time but only had to heal once the second.

Kommentar von Thottbot

you will also find him walking underwater along the west coast between ethel rethor and shadowprey village, but that's kinda rare

Kommentar von Thottbot

Is this guy part of any quests?

Kommentar von Thottbot

i almost soloed him with my 35 hunter, then my pet died and he had like 1/4 of his health left, so i tried to kill him, but he was hitting really high so i ran but i found him by scribblescrew place or whatever its called, with the kodo caravan

Kommentar von Thottbot

JEEZ! omw to mara with my lvl 48 rogue and i spot one. said to myslef thisll be fun, seeign he was green, almost killed me. I had to vanish so i can cheap shot, giving me a 4 point eviscerate. Lots of health and MASSIVE hits. beware!

Kommentar von Thottbot

soloed lvl 37 mage peace of cake! :)he hit me 1 time :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Easily solo'd this guy twice as a 36 BM hunter, this is how:

1. put the pet on him
2. slow damage, (sting + autoshot) so you don't pull aggro
3. keep pet healed (duh..)
4. kick up DPS to pull aggro off pet towards end (<50% hp)
5. shoot him up between pet and you (concus, etc)
6. use intimidate to pull aggro back off you if required

I think he got seriously nerfed at since the last time I leveled a toon. - This guy will be dead easy for any class that can kite. Just keep outta melee and you're golden.

Kommentar von Thottbot

omg he is right here in front of mee!

plz send help!
im only a lvl 34!
my god, he is sooooo ugly...
eeewwww look at his face...
and his feet...
uuugghhhhhh gross...
who the hell would want to even go NEAR this thing?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Dude, I just saw him walking on the bottom off the west coast on the way to shadowprey from the north. He was a 40 elite. I was a 32 hunter. I was very scared and swam away very quickly.
Dang! Don't sneak up on me like that, man!

Kommentar von Thottbot

i kilt him with my lvl 40 rouge. nothing to it but didn't drop nothing for me i felt cheated kill an elit get nothing lol

Kommentar von Thottbot

omg i was only a lev 33 hunter and i saw him and ran for my life dont blame me

Kommentar von Thottbot

I saw him and like screamed he was near the road split between Ni'jeil Base camp or wat ever its called and the Ruins if u look on ur map it will show those places

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found this dude walking at the bottom of the OCEAN, just off the coast of the mountains north of the Valley of Spears. That path isn't a bug. I guess Deepstrider is an accurate name for this guy.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Saw him near Shadowprey Village, and got him down to a splinter of health before he got me, lvl 36 mage. Tried again, and could only get him down to a third, before he got me. I got lucky and stunned him a few times to first try, and nova'd him once. But, sadly, couldn't take him down.

Kommentar von Thottbot

lvl 39 lock too easy didn't even have to heal just DOT him then fear didn't hit me once and only half killed my void

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found this guy next to Shadowprey Village, I took him down in about 10 minutes with a Warlock level 37 talent spec affliction with 4 on shadowbolt, just kept cursing him, fear then shadowbolt had my felhound hit him while he ran and used drain life to heal, died the first time but tried again and no problem!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Easy to kill as a lvl 37 hunter.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Soloed him as a level 38 rogue. Not hard. Burned a preparation and all my five minute timers twice (except sprint, I suppose), and a potion. At the end I was down 200 health.

He dropped 72 copper.

Exciting.

Update: Just killed him again 5 minutes later. The first one was level 38 elite, the second time he was level 39 elite. The first one had ~3100hp, the second ~4500, and the dodge rate was noticeably higher. Still killed it, but was down to half life when he died this time.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I was upping my lockskill at Sartheris Strand when this mob came walking past. I just killed him for fun and he dropped Skystriker Bow, talking about luck :P.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've come across this guy three times now. He's really not that tough, and he gives fairly good EXP. Never seems to drop anything but a few silver though ...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

What's this guy for?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This fool shows up, I wonder why he's hitting my cat druid so hard, and see the gold dragon and all uhhh, but its too late . . .

DPS him and was expecting some lewts . . . but no. He has 4k + HP so be ready to fight for a while and get ready to heal or what not . . . and do so in an area where mobs dont spawn on top of you . . .

I got lucky none of the naga came to help him, if so I'd be lights out . .

this guy covers a wide range I've seen him at 58,77 and fought him over at 36,25

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Found at 63,34 he was a 39 elite.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

very easy solo at 35 with warlok. got to 75% of mana when he died and full HP pet and me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got the giants at Ranazjar island i found that it was easier to get him there than try chassing all over desolace to find him.

coords were 29,6

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just took this guy on. All he dropped was some silver and a Big Mouth Clam.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Maybe i just suck but this guy hits like a brick. I had 1200 hp with mana shield and frost armour up, and he killed me in two hits. I scored a string of 500dmg crits and his health bar barely moved at all. He must have like 7-10k hp. How did you guys kill him so easily? I dont even think I have the mana to kill him even if just stood there.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Took on lvl 39 elite as a lvl 37 hunter and owned him. yes i like taking down things bigger than me. Sweet

Kommentar von Allakhazam

There is absolutely no reason to kill this guy or the Deepstrider Searcher unless
a) you're horde and you have the quest Nothing but the Truth
b) just like killing things bigger than you :) it is pretty satisfying watching him go down

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I saw this guy last night, and he was a level 40 elite.

Edit, sorry, it was a Deepwater Searcher. But the searcher was elite.

Edited, Mon Mar 21 19:37:57 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

solo as 37 lock, whats the point however? he dropped nothing!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This giant is not for drops.. he does NOT drop better items normally...(but it is possible though)..

Why would one kill this guy you say?

There is a quest Nothing but the Truth where you're supposed to kill this giant and get a Deepstrider Tumor.

The quest is available at the border of Duskwood, at the road to Deadwind Pass.

Good Luck

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I saw this huge guy twice and decided to attack him hoping I would get some decent loot.
I got 97 copper and some fish oil lol
I got better loot from the Centaurs I was killing when I saw him.

Though it was fun to run around his body haha

Kommentar von Elvenpraetor

Found him in Desolace on the north side of Ethel Rethor at 41,29 wandering down the hill towards the water.

Kommentar von rmmoreira

This is a stupid quest to do in a low pop server, you can ask in general chat but nobody will answer (low pop, meh). This guys spawn in so many different places that you can't find him! I'm searching for him in all the spots marked on the map and I didn't find at all (2 HOURS of searching). If you don't want to waste your time like I'm doing, drop the quest.

Kommentar von ryanscottboyer

he hit my lvl 46 warrior in full plate for 200. careful guys.

Kommentar von Nuvas

38 arms warrior
Hits hard but used:
Elixir of ogre
Mighty troll blood potion
Lesser stoneshield potion

Was close but done :)

Kommentar von Redafix

For those trying to find this guy for and are having a hard time find him, camp on the intersection (see patrol route at top of page) just southwest of Thunderaxe Fortress if you have time to camp, otherwise it's best to search along the patrol routes. Might need a consumes for him if you are equal level (38~39)

Kommentar von SamashNZ

Odd to see this thing in Desolace? Ran after me but im a Hunter so outran it, and it just carried on patrolling.

These things are more akin to coastal areas no? Unless hes a secret, I just dont fancy fighting him as he's a Level 39 Elite lol
