These are the Grunt's own figures, the ones the Armory prints. In battle the Orc Horde's trait is added on top: +15% damage · +6% speed. Range, reach and speed are in the battlefield's own units.

Special powers

None. The Grunt fights on its figures alone — nothing in its data bends a rule.

Strong and weak

Strong: Numbers, costing nothing.

Weak: Anything 1-on-1.

As a levy troop, it deals extra damage to Cavalry (×1.3) troops.

Cavalry (×1.35), Beast (×1.3) and Siege (×1.2) troops deal extra damage to it.

Raising it

The Grunt comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 350 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters a Grunt every 5.7 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 4 seconds at level 2.

Upgrades cost 200 gold to level 2 and 900 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 Orc Horde roster opens with, so it is yours from the first match — no unlocking.
