Raising it

The Gnoll Reaver comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 700 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters a Gnoll Reaver every 19.4 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 12.4 seconds at level 2 and 8 seconds at level 3.

Upgrades cost 500 gold to level 2 and 2,350 gold to level 3. Every level also makes the troops it musters hit harder and last longer.

It is one of the five troops the Mythic Beasts roster opens with, so it is yours from the first match — no unlocking.
