This 138k elite giant drops an item : Gnash's Head >> begins a quest :
An Opened Can of Whoop Gnash

Easy to solo-kite as fire-mage.

Kommentar von 260764

Easy to solo as he can be stunned and snared, with relatively low HP.

Hits surprisingly hard though, do NOT let him hit you. He hits for 11-12k on cloth.

Kommentar von Shishire

Shammies, he IS earthbind kiteable. But he's an absolute pain. Probably a lot easier if you've got a rooting totem. Drop totem in front of him, and unleash. And keep moving. Always keep moving. Solo'd as an 82 ele shammy. I have 44k HP, and 3 hits from him is deadly.

Part of the quest description:

"The new residents of Smuggler's Hole will feel considerably safer knowing this monster is no longer loitering outside their haven."

This means that if you want to be able to loot the quest-starting item, you'll have to do the quests to get Adarrah, Captain Samir and Mack inside the cave first. If you haven't done those quests, then don't bother! You won't be able to loot the head otherwise.

(just a bit of friendly advice from someone who killed Gnash a fair few times after figuring out what the problem was)

This may become the Fel Reaver of Kelp'thar Forest, only a bit quieter...

For those druids out there:

He can be taken down in a simple but mind numbing manner of rooting, throwing some ranged damage on him, and when he gets close switching to Aquatic Form and getting some breathing room. With the Sea Legs spell, getting out of range is easy as pie. This can even be accomplished by Feral Druids (I know, I am one) if you have the patience or insanity.
Tip: Bring a friend.

Killed him today, awarded exp, but no item whatsoever dropped

Edit: after 3 kills still no result until i rescued Adarrah and finished the rescue Samir & Mack quest. Killed him again got it straight away

Kommentar von Mavareno

Tried to snare with FS and earthbind tot but too many mobs got in my way after awhile. So when he reset I said screw it and popped wolves and BL. Enhance sham should have no problem with him. Wolves should last till about 50k or below a little. After that he hits kinda weak unless he does his sea splash ability which will hit you for about 10-13k. Either take the hit and heal through it or run back a little to avoid. Did this as a lvl 82 with 42k hp.

How the hell you kill this giant? He hits for 15k. I'm dead in 5 secs

Q: Hey Gnash, why do you have a ship's wheel attached to the front of your shorts?
A: Yarr, it's driving me nuts!

Thank you, I'll be here all night.

Trivially soloable as a fresh 80 afflic lock in Northrend greens. I kited him with Curse of Exhaustion in the area in front of the Smuggler's Scar cave and just kept the dots up. Took about 5 minutes.

The quest his head gives does not count towards the 140 quests for sinking into vashj'ir :(

Kommentar von Lilyrose1646

For Shadow Priests, Here's my method:

ALWAYS. Keep. Bubble. Up.

Refresh dots.

Flash heal spam.. (for some reason I was at 100% mana the whole fight..)

Keep dotting him, Constantly bubbling,

Also, with Sea Legs, Just run and dot.

Use fear as much as possible.

I killed him today by myself using this method. It was hard, and took a few minutes, but at least it got the job done.

Good luck guys, and hope this method works for you too! :)

Very easily solo'd if u just kite him around. He walks really slow and never starts swimming. You will greatly out run him by just normally swimming.

Kommentar von 850359

Soloed as lvl80 cata geared spriest just 5 mins ago, but was no loot for me. No Gnash's head, nothing. Maybe only drops when a quest leads to him, don't know.

Kommentar von Jickles

Easily solo'd at level 85 with ilevel ~330 as an Arms Warrior. Any level 85 should have no trouble killing him. Only reward is ~16 gold for turning it in.

Kommentar von Promised

I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned, but he can be stunned.

Kommentar von StaticLgtBrngr

Fun fact, this guy is so big you can see him from stormwind.

Use /tar gnash the next time you are there, it should lock on.

Not sure what's up, but I targeted him in the middle of Gol'Bolar quarry in Dun Morogh while looking for a Cook name Ghilm. Pretty interesting.

Kommentar von setback

He cannot be kited to places like stormwind... he can't swim. :/

Kommentar von amzraptor

he killed me on my shammy level 80 2x he hits my earth elemental for about 10-15k. maybe this is new or something. I remember killing him so easily with my other chars while leveling and I am aware that any level 85 can kill him.

Kommentar von 662610

Soloed as a fresh feral tank level 80, with 30k armor. I started the fight with a frenzied regeneration and bark skin, was able to tank through the damage even after bark skin wore off, got him down to about 50k hp then he started getting me down cause the regeneration wore off. Popped off survival instincts, and mowed him down with lacerate.

Fairly simple to solo, though I'm quite good at soloing things anyways :P
Good luck to anyone fresh to Cataclysm I know hes hard to fight for most...

Kommentar von Esploratore

Soloed as an 80 blood dk in wotlk dungeon gear with death siphon and lichborne spec. Not particularly hard, just be careful to not pull the mobs around, some of them can stun you for a few sec, which can be deadly. And as it's been said, no quest item drops till you complete adarrah's quest.

Kommentar von Propulson

you can't solo this dude stop spreading lies

Kommentar von Xixora

As of yesterday, so far the old info is still accurate, as far as I know. I barely escaped death with my lvl 81 Subtlety Rogue, but, I think that is probably because I had forgotten about him since I was last in Vash and he caught me by surprise while killing a Gilblin Collector. I'll update this post after I try again, this time on purpose, lol. My (at the time) lvl 80 Feral (dps) Druid killed him a year ago, but, I don't remember what I did now. I'll add that info when I get my Worgen Feral Druid to lvl 80, unless someone else has added that before I get her there. :) Just in case, I'll check here first to see if someone has added info for a Feral (cat) Druid. ;)

Kommentar von swedengamer

Very easy to solo as Fire Mage. He is snare/kite-able so just replace Fireball with Frostfirebolt and you can kite him around easily. I was lvl 80 with green gear from the npc in the ship, and this was not hard.
