Commentaire de Arcticwolf

I am led to believe that all of the items sold by this NPC are gag items, they will not provide you with anything but a sense of stupidity for purchasing them. If you read the descriptions carefully you will notice that EVERY single one of the amulets he sells provides you with the "ability" to do things you may already do.

For example, the most expensive one claims it will grant you the ability to "come back to the dead", but you can already do that because when you die, your spirit releases. Another claims to keep "dangerous critters" at bay, and says it will make it so that they will not harm you if you do not attack them. Well duh, they're critters. They are a joke, and at the most, a way of suckering people into wasting gold. I hope this saves at least one person from making that mistake.

Commentaire de Magmy

If you actually read the items closely, you can already do everything that is stated on the items.

You can swim.

You can resurrect if you walk back to your body.

You can run over small cracks in the ground.

If you wear an amulet it is located above your heart.

You might find items.

If you equip the soap, you will carry it with you anywhere you go.

Eating/drinking will give you mana/heal you.

You will be protected from Tikbalangs, since they don't exist.

Critters won't attack you, unless you strike them first.

Good stuff, especially from all the people complaining about getting scammed on the General Forums.

In 2.1.0 Griftah gets a friend. The Sha'tar send Peacekeeper Jadaar to oversee our good troll buddy and the discussion between the two when Griftah is trying to scam is hillarious.

Commentaire de Zurtilik

In patch 2.2 he will be moved outside of Shattrath.

Oh and it looks like he's selling 2 off-hand junk pieces now:

What about the treasure tracking? Is that a scam, or is it the real thing?

Commentaire de 77380

Not only is Griftah a cheapy, he is rather rude if you listen to what he says
" Hey (class/race)! How'bout some soap on a roap to get rid of that awful smell!"

Commentaire de Innuendo

He is outside Shattrath now in the PTRs, on the road north of the exit from Lower City (Next to Scryer Tier).

Commentaire de 26733

damn blizzard... if you buy something from him its your own damn fault.... stop making it easier for people

Commentaire de Zuty

It would be great to see some cool skinned offhands, Like one that looks like Thunderfury or Hand of Rag. I would pick them up for my bank-alts hella fast.

Commentaire de Hawtt

As of patch 2.1.3 Griftah has been exiled from shattrath city and in his tent is a scryer investigator and Peacekeeper Jaadrar. I guess his shady dealings finally caught up with him lol. When you click the peacekeeper he tells you hes been exiled. And if you stand there for awhile he tells you Griftah might walk up to you if you are outside the city walls

Commentaire de sturmtiger

Here are some quotes from Griftah's new location from the perspective of a male character:

Amazing amulets! Incredible curios! The newfangled jewelcrafters be havin' nothin' on the tried and true mystical methods of... the... uh... the newly relocated Griftah! Improve yerself through these magical talismans for a bargain price!

I can't believe they be chasin' me outta the city. Innit supposed to be a refuge? Ol' Griftah be a refugee! Not my fault I be an ENTERPRISIN' refugee...

Check this out, <race>! Ya know what ya be needin'? One of these flowers. Lilacs, right outta the mystical forest of Terokkar! Rare! So rare! Ya don't see any of 'em around me, do ya? A pretty flower for a pretty lady, right? Right?

Heh... heh... hey! You! I may be down, but I be gettin' back on my feet! Come over here and look at what I got. The rarest and most marvelous amulets, right here! I even picked up some extra bits! Come on, come on, ya know ya wanna look.

Okay, okay, I know what ya be thinkin'. This be a stick. But it be no ORDINARY stick, no! What ya be seein' here, <class>, be a stick of incredible rarity and extraordinary value, shaped by the very powers that wrought the world! Ya wanna own this fantastic piece of Draenor, touched by magnificent power, I know ya do. I be practically givin' em away!

Removed from inner Shattrath as of 2.2. Now located 36,30 in Terokkar Forest

Confirmed: Griftah's banishment is an ongoing storyline and not the result of real-life complaints. This from Griftah's developer himself:

<3 his amulets. Ever since I got them, no tikbalang has ever touched me. Then again, they haven't got me before, but this reduces the odds!

Tikbalang one can be real because i did some research and look what popped up :P http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tikbalang .....in other words tauren ancestors

Commentaire de Erycius

He will sell the Hula Girl Doll which will be needed by Engineers (amongst many other things) to upgrade their normal flying mount to an epic flying mount.

Currently on the PTR patch 2.3 Griftah is back inside Shattrath City at his old location.

Commentaire de Faileas

In 2.3, this Investigator Asric http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=23719 and Peacekeeper Jadaar http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=23079 are located in the World's End Tavern where they discuss their failure of Griftah's investigation. Evidently some of the evidence was... misplaced or rendered useless to their investigations. Griftah has returned to his spot in Lower City, and Jadaar and Asric are barely on speaking terms.

To read all of their comments, you will need to bring both a Draenei character and a Blood Elf character to the Tavern as they each have some lines in their native tongue.

Commentaire de 88783

In 2.3 he no longer sells his pointed stick or Terrokar flower, but he has all of his amulets again for sale and the hula doll. The two investigators are now standing in the World's End Tavern. With Lower City reputation you can get his items cheaper, like the Hula Doll for about 75g.

Commentaire de backfire

In fact, as of patch 2.3 Griftah has been let back into Shattrath and starts a new quest involving Zul'Aman. He also sells a Hula Girl Doll necessary in crafting the epic engineering mount.

Look over here, -class-! I got somethin' for ya. Just what ya need. It's soap, right... and it's on a rope! No offense, man, but yer a little ripe, know what I'm saying?
*I think he might only do this to male dwarves actually, I'm not sure.*
Edit: I have now concluded that he does it to all Races/Classes.

One of the only NPCs that plays you!

Commentaire de Tavaria

He told my blood elf she was ripe! >:o But this guy sells sweet stuff :D I once got a sope on a rope from him, my Tauren AH alt smelt like a meadow of flowers... I think.

Griftah is now selling all of his amulets + The Hula doll, but no longer the Poking stick or flower, "Rare and exquisite! .. Just like all the others!"

Griftah should have a shop in Dalaran, no one goes to Shatt anymore :<

Commentaire de 233551

Reading all this comments, this chap appears to have been on the move, inside/outside Shatt, then Dalaran? . He is BACK in Shatt, in Lower City flogging his amulet trinkets.

Commentaire de 231954

It's sad that he, unlike Jadaar and Asric, didn't get any representation in WotLK. :(

Commentaire de 388122

The Hula Girl Doll is used to make the Turbo-Charged Flying Machine (280%) for Engineers (for those who think ALL of the items aren't pointless).

Commentaire de 436758

very funny guy...or troll whatever but you have notice that he has become quite popular this times,there are a lot of people some times standing around him just to hear his "offerts" and start talking about his "magical item" and even WORST we all the ones who have looked at this coment have said to himself --some of the items he sell may really be special-- and start to look at comments to see if some really work and...nothing...very nice work from blizzard and one last thing why a undead will buy a soap on a rope they are dead they dont take baths but i dont know why i feel the necesity of buying one...

Commentaire de 425699

So I was sitting around Shat and wating for my random dungeon invite to pop up, trying to get a new trinket.
In my boredom, I decided to go see Griftah.

And as i sit here waiting, Griftah says:
"C'mere, tauren. Ya don't want to be riskin' yourself in a dungeon, do ya? Filthy work, and for what? Some worthless trinket? Nah, what ya need be one of my amulets. Guarenteed to work!"

I was quite amazed.

If he was right about the dungeon and trinket, he must be right about his amulets.

Commentaire de eryanzo

Honored price 90 gold

Commentaire de Corehoundhunter

If you /rude at him he does it back.

Edit: Hes also reacts when you /wave

Commentaire de ShadowTurtle24

Yes most of them are gag items except the Poupée danseuse is used to make the Machine volante à turbo-injection

Commentaire de Jonse

On the PTR Griftah can be seen at the Stormwind docks leading to Rut'theran Village.

Commentaire de Xzen

I think that's my cousin... I told that loser that if they made it to Shattrath they won't buy your crap cause they know better... I talked to him last week he said business is booming.

Commentaire de 851852

well the hula girl thingy is for making a helicopter for the engineers the others idk

Commentaire de 173697

Superstitious items such as amulets or charms were meant to give a person an unreliable boost of either confidence/optimism, or break a person down through fear/pessimism. We have been using these kinds of control methods for centuries. For instance, look up the superstition about spilling salt, and how it's related to how the romans wanted to control people by making up that superstition that it was back luck due to salt being a big form of currency in their time.

Commentaire de brittanymarie09

The Hula girl doll is one of the mats that it take to make the turbo charged flying machine. (only engineers can make it)

To find him fast, ask for the archaeology trainer. Griftah is just east of him outside a blue tent.

Are these amulets equippable by any level character? Would be nice for bank alts.

Commentaire de Maggieis

Looks like Griftah has found his way to Pandaria! He's at the Grummle bazaar, hanging out with Lucky Eightcoins and still selling his amulets.

Commentaire de IllidanS4

At one time during TBC, he also used to sell Terokkar Lilac and Fine Poking Stick, which are now truly rare.

Commentaire de phactory81

Found him at 65,68 in Shat lower city

Commentaire de FaithInTheDark

Rogues get Sifflet à ultra-sons from pickpocketing and Eskrokar shows up with a weekly quest and to buy all the junk you pickpocket in Draenor!

Commentaire de Vythika

I remember buying *back in the day* as it seemed to be the only thing he sold that seemed to have a plausible use...

Now, the speed penalty from land to water isn't substantial (5% maybe?), but it is noticeable to some. However, I do clearly remember that while having this amulet in my possession, that speed penalty didn't seem to apply anymore. I was swimming at walking speed.

It most definitely does not make you swim x2+ faster, that I'm sure of; and lets be honest, removal of the land to water speed penalty isn't really going to make much difference to any of your water-based quest/explorative experiences, but as I said, in my experience, it does actually work, just not as you might expect!

^_~

(NOTE: I have no idea if the item has been altered since BC but this information is correct as I remember it.)

Commentaire de TevishSzat

Do Griftah's Amulets Work?

The smart money is on 'no' -- most of them describe things that are highly natural, at least for heroes of Azeroth: Jumping, swimming, corpse-running, and so on. Plus, if you know what a Grifter is, well...

But then there's the Compassionate Critter's Friend. This amulet can be confirmed to function in exactly one instance: the Marmot critters in Blade's Edge are hostile to Alliance players by nature, but with the CCF amulet the Marmots will be neutral instead. It's a very small thing, but it indicates that the amulets may actually function, and that we merely fail to benefit because most of them are superfluous to us. This has resulted in some speculation on the Shark's Tooth and Talisman of True Treasure Tracking effecting swim speed and drops, if only by a fantastically tiny amount.
