Grimvale
Werewolves, werebears, and the curse of the full moon — complete hunting and quest guide
Grimvale is a small island northeast of Edron, cursed by lycanthropy that transforms its inhabitants into savage werecreatures during the full moon. The island features a multi-floor dungeon with increasingly dangerous lycanthropes, the Grimvale Quest with 4 major missions, and the Nemesis-class boss Feroxa. For mid-level characters (50-150), Grimvale is one of the best hunting spots in the game, and the werecreature family extends to high-level areas like Werehyaenas (150+) and Oskayaat Weretigers (500+).

Five werecreature species inhabit Grimvale. All are classified as Lycanthropes in the bestiary and share common traits: they walk through Energy and Poison fields, are immune to Paralysis, and can sense invisible players.

Elemental Weaknesses & Strategy
All werecreatures share similar weaknesses. Fire and Holy damage are the safest choices since they deal bonus damage to every species:
| CREATURE | PHYS | FIRE | EARTH | ENERGY | ICE | HOLY | DEATH |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Werefox | 100% | 105% | ? | ? | ? | ? | ? |
| Werebadger | 95% | 105% | 50% | 90% | 105% | 105% | 60% |
| Werewolf | 100% | 105% | 25% | 85% | 105% | 105% | 45% |
| Wereboar | 100% | 105% | 50% | 85% | 95% | 105% | 50% |
| Werebear | 95% | 105% | 50% | 85% | 90% | 105% | 55% |
Values above 100% mean extra damage. Values below 100% mean resistance. Bold percentages indicate strong weaknesses/resistances.
BEST STRATEGY: KNIGHTS
- • Use Fire elemental weapons (105% on all)
- • Box 3-4 creatures at a time
- • Imbue with Vampirism (Life Leech) and Void (Mana Leech)
- • Watch for Wereboar skill reduction debuff
BEST STRATEGY: MAGES & PALADINS
- • Paladins: use Onyx Arrows or Crystalline Arrows + GFB
- • Mages: Fire Strike or Wand of Inferno for single target
- • AoE: Great Fireball runes are ideal
- • Beware of Werebadger invisibility
COMMON TRAPS
Werebadgers go invisible frequently, Wereboars reduce your combat skills by 20-30%, and Werewolves summon War Wolves that add up fast. Never pull more than 4-5 creatures unless you have strong AoE.
Hunting Spots with Exp/hr
Werecreature hunting spots span from Grimvale itself to later-game areas. Here are the verified exp/hr and loot/hr rates:
| LEVEL | SPOT | CREATURES | EXP/HR | LOOT/HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50+ | Grimvale -1 (Werebadgers) | Werebadger | 230K | 10K |
| 80+ | Grimvale -4 | Werebear, Werewolf | 450K | 60K |
| 90+ | Grimvale -4 | Werebear, Werewolf | 800K | 50K |
| 100+ | Edron South Werecreatures | All 5 species | 800K | 20-75K |
| 150+ | Werehyaenas (Darashia) | Werehyaena, Shaman | 1.5M | 200K |
| 200+ | Werehyaenas North | Werehyaena, Shaman | 2.0M | 250K |
| 250+ | Werelions (Darashia) | Werelion, Werelioness | 2.5M | 500K |
| 400+ | Oskayaat Werecrocodiles | Werecrocodile, Werepanther | 3.0M | 500K |
| 500+ | Oskayaat Weretigers | Weretiger, White Weretiger, Cunning Werepanther | 5.1M | 900K |
💡 FULL MOON BONUS
During full moon phases, Grimvale spawns more werecreatures and offers better experience rates. Plan your hunting sessions around the 2-hour moon cycle for maximum efficiency.
💡 MONK HIGHLIGHT
Monks can box werecreatures effectively starting at level 80. At level 100+, the Edron South Werecreatures spawn yields 800K exp/hr with physical damage. Werehyaenas at 150+ are the top monk spot at that level range (1.5M exp/hr) — use Vampirism imbuements.
Moon Phase Mechanics
Tibia has a dynamic moon cycle that directly affects Grimvale. The cycle lasts approximately 2 real-life hoursand goes through 8 phases, similar to real lunar phases:
EFFECTS OF FULL MOON
- • More werecreature spawns on all floors
- • Feroxa boss becomes accessible (Curse of the Full Moon mission)
- • Some NPCs on the island change behavior or dialogue
- • Better overall experience per hour due to spawn density
FULL MOON WARNING
During full moon, the spawn rate increases significantly. If you are at the lower end of the level range, the extra creatures can overwhelm you. Bring extra supplies or hunt with a partner during full moon.
