Grifolaroo

Grifolaroos are monsters found in the Polypore Dungeon. They are the third strongest monster there, requiring a Slayer level of 82 to be killed, and 60 Magic to recieve as a Slayer task. They are the lowest monster to drop Grifolic flakes, which can be made into the Grifolic armour set.

Strategy
While fighting them it is worth using Neem oil. This causes them to stop attacking for a short period and they'll instantly drop an item. You can also do this outside of combat and they won't be aggressive towards you. The fungi on it's back goes from yellow to black when affected by the oil and the process can be repeated when they go back to being yellow.

When using Neem oil on a Griforaloo it will cause it to be unable to use magic attacks for a short period of time; in addition to this their ranged attacks become much slower throughout the duration that the Neem oil is affecting the Grifolaroo.

This also is beneficial because of the Griforaloo's mage and range attack. Being that most players will be choosing to use magic spells against the Griforaloo's one can use the Protect from Range Prayer and negate all damage from the monster while it is affected by the Neem oil.

It is recommended to bring an enhanced excalibur to heal from the occasions on which the lure fails. With a pack yak familiar, several overloads, extreme magic potions, or magic potions, and 20 or more prayer potions, it is possible to stay in the dungeon for hours without needing to bank. You will also need runes for whatever spell you are casting.

Trivia

 * The skull of the Grifolaroo resembles that of the old Slayer icon, which is depicted as an animal skull.
 * The description seems to hint that this is a reference to kangaroos.
