How to kill a Graug?

[Patucho]

I'm having a hard time to kill one, It's the Hunting Challenge 7 and i can't complete, is there any strategy or way to kill it without taking too much damage?

I think easiest way is to just shadow mount one (need to have ability point spend on it) and then just kill it by holding ctrl and pressin e

[Mr.IGotThis]

if you've done the main quest that gives you the skill to bleed graugs then you just shoot 2 charged shots into its head then bleed it. usually doing that 2 times kills it

Shoot it in the head to stun it, rush up to it and start attacking, run away quickly before it can hit you too much, heal using plants if you have to, repeat. It helps to get uruks or caragors to weaken it first but obviously you'll want to get the finishing blow. Other than this I doubt there is an easy way to kill one without the mounting perk which I am guessing you don't have yet.

Even becomes easier with shadow mounting.

Yeah, there has to be a warning about it to not try to kill one early so i would have been killed 5 times trying to get one. This really sucks.

I killed one by luring it and Uruks into each other (Xbox One tested & confirmed to be at least effective) however if a Uruk gets the killing blow your not credited for the kill simply shoot it in the face twice go in get some hits in retreat then drag in Uruks as needed since it should kill most of them in one hit, just be careful of Berserkers as while it's stunned they can take a large chunk out of it's health, and use them to restock arrows as necessary, this way you can kill one early on without Graug Hunter, and Shadow Mount.

I'd recommend having Elven Swiftness and Vault Stun if you don't have them then at least 3 arrow upgrades and as many Focus upgrades as you deem necessary, any other abilities are only really going to work on Uruks and Ghuls but Throwing Daggers and Brace of Daggers might be useful for keeping it enticed in chasing you since they won't run to far from their cave without being pestered.
