Talk:Grentch

that skill bar is inaccurate, 1 skillset is the necro stuff from '05, and the stuff from last time was the snowball underworld stuff — Skuld 17:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Grentchs in GW:EN?

I saw a few fighting a few snowman today, in Jaga Moraine. They said something like "Wintersday 2007!"

I also saw posibly the same group today 23:50 GMT 29/2/08 shurely they souldnt be here outside the event il upload a shot later--Demonthorn 23:54, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I saw some too, in Jaga Morraine (13/03/08), fighting a group of three Snowmen, North of the Bear shrine, just outside the 'village'. They were shouting things like "You'll be ours this Wintersday" I couldn't interact with the snowmen, which were allied, and I killed the Grentches as they were enemies.

Reference

I cant belive no one noticed!! These are obviously a reference to the Movie by Dr.Suess "How the Grintch stole Christmass"

I think everybody has noticed and it was so obvious nobody bothers to mention it. 76.123.119.133 23:36, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Holiday Blues?

I've only seen the regular Grentches in the two Secret Lair of the Snowmen quests only use Snowball and Yellow Snow, and according to my notes from last year the ones in the Underworld likewise only use Snowball and Yellow Snow. Has anyone seen one of them use Holiday Blues? -- Gordon Ecker 04:10, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I saw one a few days ago use it. Sacrifical Grentches have it. --Jette 02:39, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

hairy member

maybe its just me, but it image makes it look like the grentchs have a very hairy member. --VVong|BA 20:20, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

it's hopefully only an elegant method of hiding it with weird clothing, not the member itself.^^

funny bug

u know how the grenchies run around in kamadan and LA and make all the presents explode, i noticed that if u take a present into the dwarf cage via the bug the grenchies run towards the cage and explode its still happening so ill get a screenshot of it

the grentches themselves explode? xD a great method if one is annoyed by their death-touch^^ —ZerphaThe Improver 13:47, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

name color

i noted that normal grenthces that steal presents, and grentches that kill you after the victory of grenth have diffrent colors...one like normal allied NPCs, the others like pets. —ZerphaThe Improver 13:49, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Demons?

Do the Demon-slaying mods work on them? I would get one and try myself but... no upgrade traders, sorry. MithTalk 17:47, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Already existed in Beta , previously intended to become Goblins?

no doubt, they look similiar... —ZerphaThe Improver 19:19, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Affiliation: Not Specified?

How can this be? Clearly, they are minions of Grenth. Laserblasto! 04:05, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Miniature Grentch

I mini grentch would be an awesome reward (during Wintersday) from the chest in the Secret Lair of the Snowmen! Shew 01:41, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Or maybe not that dungeon... but something. Come on, ANet :P There's a Freezie... so there's gotta be a grentch!-- Shew 15:57, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Affiliation?

Looking at a Grentch's mannerisms the way it runs and attacks is exactly the same as an imp of any class, also take note at wintersday when a Grench is idle it uses the same emotes as, you guessed it an imp. Maybe it should be changed from demon to imp? Frozenwind 23:59, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

do they take extra dmg from +demonslaying? if so, then they're demons. --VVong|BA 19:53, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

indeeed, and that's also more likely. the model used and the actual affiliation are two different things, the latter can't be concluded by the first. —ZerphaThe Improver 11:02, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

can anyone verify whether grentches are their own type or if they're demons? hopefully before this event ends? --VVong|BA 06:07, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

bump just to get some more eyes on this. before the event was over, i tried to buy a +demonslaying mod for 10k for awhile, but nobody seemed to have one. i only bring it up b/c the grentch npcs right now have different listings for their type. this article lists them as grentches, but Grentchus Magnus (among others) lists them as demons. --VVong|BA 20:37, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

The info is directly from Andrew. Source somewhere in his talk, I'd guess. Backsword 20:43, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

which info do u mean? grentches being grentches or being demons? or different grentches being different things? --VVong|BA 21:16, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Grenches are demons while Snowmen have their own type. Backsword 21:18, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Speed

Looks like these guys (in towns) have 50% speed boost: they can clearly catchup to me under Sugar Rush; but chasing grentchs while under Sugar Jolt I can keep pace and occasionally catch them (prob cos I cut corners while following and slightly decrease the distance between us) --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 23:25, 3 January 2009 (UTC)\

Wintersday 2009

I see no Grentches in LA =[. That's my favorite part of the event... Power WM 20:31, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
