Spawn Conditions

• Spawned by trading Oversized Sock to ??? at F-7 (Upper left quadrant right next to ravine)

Traits and Abilities

• Favors Ice Roar over traditional Gigas moves.
  • Use of Ice Roar initiates Ice Spikes effect, so stun Ice Roar. Ice spikes get stronger with each use.
• Uses a move called Moribund Hack, AoE Ice damage. Very powerful. Hate reset.
  • Ice Spikes will wear off after Moribund Hack is used.
• Can be Blinded, Slowed, and Paralyzed, but all with some difficulty.

Other Notes

• Pulling this NM from his spawn point straight back to the ridge wall will get him out of range of 90% of the Hadal Gigas' patrol routes. Links are otherwise very common and rather dangerous.

Historical Background

Pantagruel is a part of a connected series of five novels of two giants: Gargantua (the father) and Pantagruel(his son) and their adventures, the text is written in an amusing, extravagant, satirical vein.
