Commentaire de Arador

This is obviously a reference to Dr. Seuss' The Grinch.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Good luck killing this guy on a PvP server, both the Horde and Alliance have to kill him, and he spawns fairly infrequently for all the people that need it.

A lot tougher of a quest than the 36 elite mob you have to kill.

Commentaire de Thottbot

On My Realm(Aggramar) the area is swarming with humans and elfs......... I have seen the greench once but he died 10 seconds after he spawned.......
u cant even get anything done out there everyones constantly throwing snow balls at everyone!

Commentaire de Thottbot

It'd be better if he was more like the Twilight Keeper guys in Silithus. Hell, they like to respawn like every 20-30 seconds. Hope they fix this next year

Commentaire de Thottbot

on my server, Aggramar, the Engineering, alchemy and Enchanting patterns go for 100g+. i rocked up to Alterac, got in a group, had a snowball fight for 30 mins then went to IF to put it on the AH for 100g. sold in 5 mins.....

Commentaire de Thottbot

Please be aware that the prize you receive... may not be the one you need. After turning in the treats my reward was Edge of Winter, the blacksmithing plan. However, I'm an Engineer. Seems you may have to AH for the one you want anyway.

Commentaire de Thottbot

he is lvl 36 elite location is 39, 73

Commentaire de Thottbot

The only chance for a lower-level character to get this quest done, is to very quickly get the first shot in on the guy so you can loot it.

Luckily, he spawned right on top of me when i did it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

it is 10 minutes exactly between respawn, and can be in any location marked on the map, so best just pick a spot and camp.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Less than every 5 mins. Check the map they have of this guy. Also, it helps to group up and have people spread out a bit. Everyone can loot him once he's dead. Just pick a spot and wait =)

Commentaire de Thottbot

First, if you see a bunch of 60's hanging out, ask them for an invite. 5 people have much better odds than 1. Also, he seems to spawn North/South/North/South. If he's killed in the South... guess where you should be. Oh yeah- and this shouldn't need to be said but... if you're having trouble gettin in on him at 6pm... try 2am. It's much easier. ^.^

Commentaire de Thottbot

I've killed him twice around 31,65. And that's the only place I've seen him

Commentaire de Thottbot

Found him at 28,53. Soloed him as a 33 priest. It'd doable but you gotta be patient.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Found him at 31,64. Just North-west of the Growless Cave.

Commentaire de Thottbot

on my server dath'remar oceanic not a single person ever here to kill him yeah its good for me

Commentaire de Thottbot

does this greench exist anymore? looked everywhere the map said and on the cords put on here but no luck..

Commentaire de Thottbot

I dont know the spawning time of the abominable greench, but if you ever are looking for him get with a group with lvls above 50, and he spawns under some trees in the snowy regoin of Alterac Mountains.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Found his corpse at (31, 66) in Alterac Mountains. I guess he spawns near there. Dozens of players were around waiting for him.

Commentaire de Thottbot

He looks just like the other Yetis, but larger and darker.
I got the kill without being in a group, pissed everyone else off. xD

Commentaire de Thottbot

comfirmed location, he spawns right east of the snowman so keep that place clear at all time and wait for him to respawn. Big tall brown/grey elit yeti, cant miss him (careful of alliance though, had a few 70 hunters ganking...always the same) spawn time is between 5 and 8 minutes...seems longer when ur just waiting

Commentaire de Thottbot

I have added a pic of the Greench.

Pasted it's name above, had to much screen junk otherwise.

Pic was taken around the back of the back of the building.

Commentaire de Thottbot

got him easy, a 70 got him to 9% and i asked him to inv, then he inved and we killed it, best luck ever

Commentaire de Thottbot

For me, he spawned both times up on the north west clearing by the wall. Slightly different spots though so it may be more random.

Just group up with all of your faction, spread out, one person draws first blood, stop attacking, and announce to group. Then, once everyone arrives, kill it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

His spawn point does appear to be random. I saw him spawn about 6 times. Twice near the entrance to the snowy region, twice by a group of three trees near the middle, once by the brick wall, and once at the edge where the snow stops.

Most aggravating quest I've had.

Commentaire de Thottbot

easy to do even on a crowded pvp server:

1. logout near his spawn location

2. log on at 4-5am

3. kill it, loot, rejoice.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Managed to get with 2 70s who happened to be on at 5 am:) We found him by the castle, 36-38? (can't remember) elite mob.

Commentaire de Thottbot

got him, just me (70 lock, coulda soloed it but was helpin someone) and a 54 hunter, had to beat off alliance for about 7 min for the respawn, nice honor, plus i got the winter veil alch recipie, nice 20 gold for 10 min of running around

Commentaire de Thottbot

I found the easiest thing to do was to create a macro (/target Abominable Greench) and then just run around spamming it until I found him. 5 minutes of this and I was done!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Its an awesome way to get honor. On pvp get there, all day there are people hanging out. Get a group then fight them. While busy with fighting you can get the greench.

Also, if your low level get a group or log on late in the night.

Commentaire de Thottbot

You're a mean one, Mr. Greench.
Your quest is an ass to do....
You've got half the server on you and I can't even see through
Mr. Gree-ench!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Found him at 31,61

Commentaire de Thottbot

easy, not even camped killed him as soon as he respawned. First found his dead body with a portal next to it, which meant a mage had been busy. Not nps good luck and Merry Christmas :P

Commentaire de Thottbot

DOESNT DROP THE TREATS?

Commentaire de Thottbot

WOW 4 TIMES AND NO DROP...... IS HE SUPPOSED TO DROP IT?
screw this quest...jsut like the rest of the quests in this game.. low ass drop rates to piss you off

Commentaire de Thottbot

Found him at 29, 60

and you cant pick pocket him!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Every time I kill him it says "there was no loot to get", do you loot him for the potion, or am I wasting my time farming him?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Caramell from Deathwing.

I killed The Abomiable Greench at the coordinates 30.0 - 53.0, in Alterac Mountains. He was lvl 36.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i killed him twice the first time nothing dropped, the second time i had the quest of stolen treats and thats all that dropped off of him the second time. so wheres this heroic potion recipe?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Spawn rate seems to be 5 minutes.

Again: If he's killed in the south, he will respawn 5 minutes later in the north, and vice versa.
And he only drops the Stolen Treats (if you are on the second leg of the winter veil quest line)

Commentaire de Thottbot

note: do not read the following if you hate classic, good hearted family songs

Mr.Grinch
You're a mean one, Mr.Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus.
You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Grinch.

You're a bad banana
With a greasy black peel.

You're a monster, Mr.Grinch
Your hearts an empty black hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You got garlic in your soul
Mr.Grinch

I wouldn't touch you with
a thirty nine and a half foot pole

You're a vile one, Mr.Grinch
You have have termites in your smile
You have all the sweetness
of a sea sick crocodile
Mr.Grinch

Given the choice between the two of you, I'd take the
Sea sick crocodile.

You're a foul one, Mr.Grinch
You're a nasty, wasty skunk
You're heart is full of unwashed socks
You're soul is full of gunk.
Mr.Grinch

The three words that best describe you
are and I quote;"Stink.Stank.Scunk."

You're a rotter, Mr.Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots.
You're hearts a dead tomato splot
with moldy purple spots
Mr.Grinch

You're soul is an unappealing dump heat overflowing
with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable
rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled knots

You nauseate me, Mr.Grinch
with nauseous super-naus
You're a crocked jerky jokey
And you drive a crocked horse.
Mr.Grinch

You're a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool
sandwich
With arsenic sauce.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Wanna hear something funny? I was searching for him while wiating for a WSG to pop up, figuring I'd just get used to the area and how to farm for him alter. This was my seccond time doing it, the first was really for talking to the snowman.

So anyways, he's literally the first yeti I see. Saw him so fast it freaked me out. Simple kill for a 60 balance druid, and bam. Done in less time than it took me to ride there from the flight point.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

33,50. took 10 mins.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

This quest is a pain in the ass. 100 other people trying to kill the same spawn as you. Good luck

Commentaire de Allakhazam

spawned again 5mins later 34,68

he yells when he spawns

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I killed Greench today and i completed the quest. He did 2 spawns in 1 min. He yells:ARRRRRRRRR when he appears in the mountain.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

40, 64 to 44, 62 (seems he paths a bit) when the season's right :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

On a PvP server, camping this mob will be a gankfest. Group up and get ready for some fighting. Really fun :D

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Guys, beware. Greench has a preset level change! I think its around 5-7 minutes, but I was sitting there, waiting for my party, then up he goes! From 34 to 36! All I have to say is good luck and try to kill him swiftyly

Commentaire de Allakhazam

you better wait at the west of the cave, roaming doesnt do any good

Commentaire de Allakhazam

- The Greench spawns randomly in any area with Yeti's in Alterac. So it's best to get a group of people, and split up. Make sure to let everyone know not to kill him until the rest of the group is there though, or else some likely won't get credit for the kill.

- Respawn time seems to be random, but never longer than about 5 minutes.

- He only does his yell of "ARRRRRRRRRRR" when you're in a specific proximity to him. So don't count on spotting the yell to know when he's spawned.

Edited, Fri Dec 16 06:39:49 2005

Commentaire de Allakhazam

iv only seen him as a 36 but he spawns every few mins

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I saw him spawn in three places....up near the wall of the Alterac Castle, near the entrance to the valley and between those few trees on the small hill to the right of the yeti cave. His spawn time seemed to be about 15 or 17 minutes.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

there were rumors the spawn was broken. it aint

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Waited like 10 minutes for him to spawn, he did so under those trees in the middle of the yeti inhabited area. One shadowbolt, crited, and he fell.. Killed three bots and one ganker while waiting, so at least some fun xD

Commentaire de Allakhazam

For those without coords: from the snowman and Growless Cave, follow the rocky trail west and north around the mountains. He spawns around the flat snowy area where you see the walls of the Ruins of Alterac. (Bonus: there's also 3 "Holiday Snow" snowball spawn points in the area, so if you're there with friends, you can pelt each other while you wait!)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

i arrived there and there were around 9 allience there searching for him. I spoted the Greench by some miracle but i still had to speack to the snowman. so i made my way to it talked to him and made my way back to the greech and killed it lol. The allies could only cry (sniff sniff)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I had one half of the camp to myself, when a lvl 70 warlock pops in. I ask to group. They ignorte me and log. And he spawns in that very spot. Mwa ha ha ha.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

After camping his stupid a** for about an hour, I discovered a few things. First, the spawn timer is random. The other yetis are placeholders, as suggested earlier, so just kill everything in sight. It helps kill time too. *Laughs.* Second, he spawns all up and down the left inner edge of the Alterac Mtns, from Growless cave to the "ledge" up to the wall with the snow. It's random, but I think there's four or five definite places. Again, the yetis look like placeholders, so he can probably spawn anywhere other yetis do.

On a more amusing/frustrating note, EVERYONE will be camping him. Group up for better chance of getting it, and to be nice to others, instead of being greedy and taking one kill for yourself. (You're trying to kill the Greench, not be one!) That, and you can spread people out over an area to tag him when he does spawn. I imagine that this is freaking hillarious on a PVP server, as someone else mentioned. It's worth making a char on one just to bring along some popcorn and watch the camping fireworks! :D

As a last note, it looks like this is repeatable. I haven't checked since my wireless mouse needs batteries and I'm running off to go get some more. Good thing, 'cause I want the Snowmaster 9000 and I got a pattern for a Festive Green Winter Shirt. Oh well, my tailor friend will love me for it. :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

From what I can tell he respawns instead of Yeti's, which are kinda acting as a placeholder, I saw him spawn in 4 different areas all close to me while we were hunting for him...finally tagged him first the 4th time.. what we did was split up our group up a bit and kill every yeti we saw to get him to respawn faster in our area, also make a macro that says " /target the abominable greench " and just spam it..that will let you know when he pops in your area and help you find him...good luck though as there were lots of folk trying for him when i did it...hench its easier if you group and spread out a little.
snowballs are awesome fun while you wait :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

What a easy quest. I was the only person in Alterac Mountains and i could easily and calmfully kill him. :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

he spawned at 39,63 for my guildmates

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Found him at 44,63.

Commentaire de Nineoneone

found him 32 51

Commentaire de Etreum

I thought it would be tougher, but since I could not find a group, I went for it.

I was able to kill him as a 37 Retribution Paladin. Not too difficult (He was 36 Elite).

Classic HC 2023

Commentaire de Gadareth

During SoD we were able to kill it with 2 hunters, 2 cat druids, a warrior, and a healer.

Commentaire de SeamanLiquor

Boss has an ability to throw a snowball at you from unlimited yard range, stunning you for 5 seconds and turning you into a snowman, that's missing from this wiki.

It's impossible to lease him as a hunter in SoD.
