Ghru Leaper is an Enemy in Dark Souls 3.
Ghru Leaper Enemy Description
- The Leaper is the most dangerous of the melee Ghru's.
- He attacks by jumping and by using deadly grabs that bypass blocks.
- Ghru's are descendants of the Farron guardians. Some event, likely the presence of the abyss has turned them into goatlike demons.
Ghru Leaper Combat Information
- The Ghru Leaper is fast and aggressive, and can move around both on two or on all four limbs.
- Jumping gives the Leaper a great potential to dodge and counter.
- Be careful when blocking, as the Leaper will often try to grab you, a move that ignores your shield.
- Their jumping stomp attack can be blocked, but if unblocked will cause as much damage as the grab attack.
- Sometimes the Leaper will pause and it will slowly walk towards you for a while.
- It also has one or two claw attacks that can be parried.
- One of the safest ways to deal with them is to dodge sideways, when they run up to grab you, and then punish them from behind.
- After successfully performing a grab attack on the player, the Leaper will glow with a red aura for some time afterward. This is possibly a buff, needs confirmation.
- Can be Rapported.
- Unconfirmed whether luring works or not.
Ghru Leaper Notes & Trivia
- Some can be standing, but some require a trigger to stand up.
- Their appearance is similar to the mythological creature Baphomet.
- Environmental fires will damage them noticeably, this can be used if you're low on HP but be aware that sometimes they will avoid the fires.

So we all agree that these guys are the most annoying enemies in DS3?
- Anonymous
Such a dumb obnoxious enemy. At least there aren’t too many of them.
- Anonymous
whose idea was it to give a common enemy a near infinite stunlocking grab attacks and a jump that allows them to just dodge any melee attack you use on them?? I went through ariandel + cathedral without dying once and then died twice to these guys
- Anonymous
This is the only enemy that killed me on 2 entire levels(including bosses). And multiple times each. Hard enemies are fine but these and pus of man are the 2 worst designed enemies in this game.
Near instant stagger recovery, unlimted grab attacks in a row, can lunge 15 feet, and 2 different attacks that spam you to death. Fromsoft always manages to completely f*** up a few enemies in the game, and these are one of them.

I regret saying that hooves are cool, at this guys best he doesn't poison you, at his worst he's the worst chiropractor I've had the displeasure of meeting.
In terms of his pet score, 0/10 Keep me away from him

The absolute worst enemy in the game, not even the annoying dogs are this painful to deal with

I want five minutes alone with whoever made the final decision to include these in the game.
And in the goddamned SWAMP LEVEL of all places.

Why does it have more health than the others when it's the one that constantly dodges your attacks?

Fex wiki "lore" written by braindead morons yet again. "sOmE eVeNt LiKeLy tUrNeD tHeM iNtO gOatS bEcAuSe tHeY aRe LiNkEd tO sAtAn hiMseLf."
SATAN DOES NOT EXIST IN DARK SOULS YOU DUMB F*CK, are you the type of religious catholic smoothbrain who thinks everything is related to christianity? In dark souls lore chaos demons were born of the chaos flame, the soul of life, and they are literally just a new species that gwyn's gods hated and feared (because they fear literally anything that isn't born of the light soul) and sent black knights to literally eradicate them like the holocaust but worse. Keep your religious dogsh*t out of this, please.

I think these enemies are the only ones that genuinely scare the ever living hell out of me in the game. I am always nervous to engage these enemies.

These mother****ers killed me twice in the demon ruins by doing the brain suck attack 3 times in a row. That and the Irithyll enemies are the reason I'm probably quitting dark souls.

That jump or that grab needs to be patched the **** out. Front is Problematic enough with the constant invasions, slow walking & poison, these guys are just way to over powered for a trash mob

No enemy in the game i hate more. First i fought a darkwraith, then i walked all around in deep swamp for 5 min, then i fought the 5 basilisk and somehow survived (not easy when you are reduced to walking speed), as i was about to go up and deal with the second fire, this ****er jumped and one shooted me. Lost 14000 souls. Personly i prefer Blightown to Farron keep.

That slow walk is so damn infuriating. Let's say you don't want to deal with their BS grabs and jumps, this is the 3rd ****ing time you are going through satan's swamp ass, you barely manage to break aggro, now you gotta sit and ****ing wait for literally 10 MINUTES for the slow **** to waddle far enough away for you to slip pass without pissing it off.

This was the first Ghru I faced and after killing it I was scared **** less seeing so many Ghrus in the swamp. Didn't even think about engaging one and legit quit the game for 2 hrs only to find the truth from this wiki.

The first one in Farron Keep seems unassuming until he goes Super Mario on your ass. Definitely one of the top 5 cheapest enemies in the game.

i know this is dark souls,im okay with your stupid grab neck snap, but can you at least give me a second or two before you instantly grab me a second time the moment the stun ends

Attack, jump, miss, attack again, jump, miss, proceed to do grab attack, dies to them. Have to equip and spam those ringed knight greatsword combo just to kill them the rest are just easy to deal bruh

I came back with a +9 weapon and Fire Enchant miracle just to***** on these *****ers out of pure spite. It took more than an hour before I felt I had enough.

I was about to comment that there is no way these things are canonically spawns of Satan, and that this article is misinforming. But then I remember fighting them. They definitely are.

My god these crystal meth smoking mofos are are so annoying. They always seem to know exactly when to jump to avoid your attack. Also when they jump, you end up looking up your own ass crack cuz the camera decided to go scuba diving in the ground. And don't even get me started on hit boxes. They'll clearly miss then suddenly I'll teleport to them or they'll teleport to me.

When they do their grab attack it looks like you're giving them a blow job

Spams headgrab with no recovery window for you, and their leap can poise through a fully charged ultra heavy. ***** these things.

Unarmed enemy 10 times more dangerous than the version with sword or spear (or the giant one), FromSoft logic

these can *****, off 500 billion, poise 1 too 4 hits, spams two of the most annoying attacks ever and one of those attacks thats takes away more than half your health and buffs them and the other one makes him jump in the air which makes you not able to attack them.

The trick is to bait them into charging at you with their arms spread to grab you, then roll past them. They stumble afterwards, which gives you enough time to open up an R1 chain and hopefully get them to fuck off. I hated these enemies more than any other enemy in the game until I eventually ran into them enough to stop being retarded and figure out the bait.

Killed all first 3 easily, then got jumped on by the fourth one. My 6000 souls.

. Some event has turned them into goatlike demons, probably because of them being a spawn of Satan himself, especially the Leaper ones.

These *****ing things scare the***** out of me. Like literally, a deep instinctual fear. These things remind me of the wendigo, a man that was forced out of starvation to eat human flesh, dead or alive. They are consumed by their hunger, and devour anything they can, human or otherwise.
I literally try my best to avoid these things.

The description says "can be lured". I've seen how dangerous they are in multiple das3 playthroughs on youtube but if they can be lured by alluring skulls why doesn't anybody take advantage of that? My laptop can't run dark souls 3 so I can't test how effective alluring skulls are on them but dark souls 2 has trained me well to use alluring skulls on tough enemies (if they are affected by alluring skulls).
These *****ers, along with the Elder Ghrus, are the reason I hate Farron Keep

i died 4 times in a row to these *****wipes because of spamming grapples or jump attacks
The sound they make reminds me a TON of the zombies in 7 days to die. Is this a coincidence?

The best strategy I found against this guy is to punch him right in the gabba right before he tries any tricks. He has a small pool of hp and big part of his attacks is interraptable it seems.

After these f+++++ tear your face off (and you are still standing), they glow red and walk slowly for a short while. Anyone knows if that is a buff or debuff for them (or just afterglow after having just faceraped another poor sod)? Never really waited to find out, just made goat kebobs outta them.

These mob are broken af, nothing to do with hard to fight, it's grapple mechanic is glitchy,spammable and simple broken.

these are... possibly the most infuriating enemy in the entire Souls series, in my opinion. I have 45 vigor and these things still scare me witless. they're like if you took the torch hollows from Dark Souls 1, made them three times as big, gave them a lightning fast grab attack with no cooldown, and put them in the POISON SWAMP of all places. don't fight them. don't even think about them. equip a quickstep weapon and skip the entire *****ing swamp while you're at it.

It's your best option. Bait them into a jump and roll behind them and then backstab.

This enemy is one of most dangerous in early game...srsly they do a lot of damage
These are one of the most bullshit enemies designed by from software before Elden Ring.
Then they decided to design all those new bullshit enemies and add them in Elden Ring
