i just put a minion master build on my ranger, the trick is getting enough minions up in his grill before he can start attacking you. that way he just attacks the minions and they basically overwhelm him, don't worry about a necro elite, just roll with some basic minion spells. there are tons of corpses around to use.

That is because the wiki is wrong about it as it can heal it self with blood song which should be removed and not moving around to much.It is stealing your life.

I had lots of trouble doing this quest with my ranger. I tried the obvious (and much recommended) longbow+poison technique but I never got the griffon's health much below about 75% before it wacked me with a set of spirits. Then I tried going as an MM with necro secondary. The problem with this is that there aren't actually many corpses about - I think there are 6 in total. I had no success with this tactic. Finally I tried the same spirit spamming R/Rit build that I had used against Magni The Bison and that was successful, though it did take me a couple of attempts. The knack with this is to lay a line of spirits before the Griffon has done his first spirits, lure the Griffon to your spirits and then keep putting down more spirits as energy allows, behind your front line. At least thats what I did.

There are lots of other threads on this subject by the way. And look in wiki for spirit spamming builds.

There is already a thread discussing "griffon beating" here.
