 * Grabs someone then throws them down on the ground.
 * Sometimes he may smash them twice then slams them into the ground causing a shockwave.

Tips & Advice

 * Its attacks are slow which allows a Lann to easily Slip Dash or a Fiona to Heavy Stander through its attacks.
 * Breaking off the Wing will change its attack pattern; it will always toss rocks from the ceiling and will perform 4 swing melee combos more often.
 * There is a single Ballista in the room which may be used to fire spears to stun the beast.
 * Throwing Judgement of the Goddess (extremely powerful Spears which are obtained on the second floor) at it's feet will pin it to the ground and prevent it from attacking for a few seconds. Pinning both feet to the ground will prevent it from attacking for an extended period of time. (about 10 seconds or so)
 * Back off when it will fly into the air. Going near it while it jumps will produce a harmful shockwave.
 * Immediately move away when it grabs someone and the screen displays a red tint. When it throws someone down, it produces a large shockwave that deals massive damage to those nearby. You may try to save the victim by:
 * Stunning it (via Ballista, pushback, knockdown, SP: Reverse Gravity, shooting weak points identified by Hunter's Eye, etc.).
 * Hitting the gripping hand with a Spear/Judgement of the Goddess/Ballista.
 * Pinning a foot to the ground using Spear/Judgement of the Goddess.
 * One of the most common tactics to defeating Glas Ghaibhleann is to have everyone but one person gather enough SP (preferably for Second Stage Transformation). Afterwards, lure Glas to a wall, and have that one person pin it down with the Ballista, where everyone else unleashes hell.
 * It is possible to use the Ballista to pin one of Glas Ghaibhleann's hands to the wall, causing a stun similar to that of throwing Judgement of the Goddess through both of his feet.

Additional Notes

 * Equipment dropped in Normal or Hard is of 4* quality.
 * The beast is described in the book ''The Embodiment of Destruction, Glas Ghaibhleann.
 * Tied in with with the murders in Colhen from where young Brynn, summoned Glas as a kid instead of the Goddess.
