Version 0.11: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Gnolls are brutish monsters found early in the game. They are always found in groups and usually wield flails or halberds. New adventurers should be wary of them, since they can hit for much harder than most enemies at that depth. Sometimes they carry javelins for attacking at range or throwing nets to pin you in place.

Gnoll Types

g Gnoll - An angry dog-headed humanoid, only as dangerous as the weapon it wields.

g Gnoll sergeant - Significantly stronger than a standard gnoll, they tend to have better equipment and healing potions too.

g Gnoll shaman - Gnollish support casters who petrify and glow you, making you easy pickings for their allies.

Unique Gnolls

g Crazy Yiuf - Clam drain pasta spittle! Marry what a flowbot?

g Grum - A modestly powerful gnoll who hunts with the help of a pack of ferocious war dogs.

 '''Gnolls''' are brutish monsters found early in the game. They are always found in groups and usually wield [[flail]]s or [[halberd]]s. New adventurers should be wary of them, since they can hit for much harder than most enemies at that depth. Sometimes they carry [[javelin]]s for attacking at range or [[throwing net]]s to pin you in place.
-==Tips & Tricks==
-*Divide and conquer. Gnolls are typically asleep in packs when you first meet them. Don't let them all see you at once, or you'll have to fight all at once, or one after the other. Both ways are dangerous. Lure them away one at a time.
-*Using a corridor tactic with a gnoll pack can be dangerous as some spawn with a reaching brand weapon. Stair dancing is safe, however.
-*If you see them wielding halberds, expect high damage in melee combat.
-*Struggling free from nets might not be something you have time for. You can quickly free yourself from nets by [[blink]]ing or teleporting away. Alternatively, Conjurers and Elementalists can blast enemies through nets and escape once they're safe (though this does not get you out of the net any faster).
