Description[]
Gnoll Scouts roam the Canyonside area attacking travelers that cross their path.
Due to their low stats, Gnoll Scouts can make for an easy battle even for new characters. Defeating a Gnoll Scout will always benefit the victor with a small number of coins; new players may find this a beneficial monster to camp if they wish to purchase gear from a merchant.
Creating a camp in the Canyonside Plains and defending it is an effective way to hunt Gnoll Scouts safely.
Strategy[]
Gnoll Scouts defend most effectively against slashing attacks. Attacking them with a bludgeoning or piercing weapon is suggested.
Gnoll Scouts attack most often with a single or dual Light Mace; Bludgeoning defences are suggested to be used to avoid excessive damage. It is not uncommon to find a Gnoll Scout carrying a Spear however; being able to defend against piercing damage will be beneficial.
