      The actual **** happened to cause such a drastic change from human into whatever the **** they are now?
      Was it part of the event that caused the keep to sink into the swamp or was is a slow burn over time?

        When it comes to petting these guys they have some amount of fur, but not enough to be satisfying, but they vape poison mist at me which is no good, they are also, less than friendly, but at least hooves are cool.

        I give them a pet score of 3/10 Too much poison

            I’ve been farming then in Farron keep perimeter and I had some that dropped wolfs blood sword grass so I’ve been farming and they have currently dropped a total of four in about a half an hour

              Good god are these things annoying. Tried rolling backward the first time I saw one winding up for an attack. Little did I know he was the cross country champion of farron keep. Or that his buddy was hiding behind a tree, waiting for me to present my back to it. Or that the unarmed ones are stronger than the soul of cinder. At least he doesn't one shot you if he gets anywhere within 20 feet of you.

                At least they don't devour you like Mimics do. Because then we could honestly say that "You got eaten by a Ghru." Most people probably won't get that reference.

                  these guys can backstab you. Like, full animation, crit damage. I was backstabbed by one using a dagger in Smouldering Lake after I dropped down a hole, landing with my back right in front of one.

                    Clearly Farrons guards didn't have enough females but plenty of nanny goats to go around...if you get what I mean. Lol!

                      The spearmen in New Game (not New Game+) have 435 HP. The shamen in New Game also have 435 HP or thereabouts.

                        the venom mist ghru drops heavy gems, discovered this while farming the blood swordgrass in the farron keep perimeter bonfire.

                          The stomp: upward slash weapon art keeps them from falling off the side of the bridge. Lothric Knight Greatsword, Zweihander, Dark Sword and Bastard Sword have this version of stomp.

                            It's pretty scary (and movie/Videogame-ish) that we know next to NOTHING about the Ghru!We don't know what it is, what it's weak to, what it's resistant to or what it is immune to!

                              I don't care what you tell me the ones with spears are the most awful beings ever created in a video game ever

                              • I have recently found out that Ghru enemies take more damage from demon-slayer weapons (Black Knight ones). Considering their lore this actually makes sense as Ghrus are goatlike demonic spawns.
