Did Revan fight Rancor very often in KOTOR?

Yep. Just the one (I think) in Taris undercity.

Though he didn't really fight it, he baited a corpse stuffed with grenades, the Rancor eats it, then BOOM in KOTOR.

You could slaughter a bunch of baby-Rancors : p

He sounds like a coward. But I am glad that at least the 1st tier isn’t a made-up.

From memory of KOTOR game, he has forgotten he is a jedi/sith at that stage, doesnt become a Jedi until he reaches Dantooine, and so doesnt have his jedi powers available or lightsaber.

Not wanting to go up against a rancor with a rusty vibroblade and a blaster = coward. I suppose I live in constant shame.

For the record, Revan fights a full sized Rancor on Taris (the first planet) and several small Rancors on Lethon (the last planet). He fights the Terentek on Korriban.

I'm not sure, but I think it may have been the only way to kill it.

Edit: just double checked, you can also use the "grenade, run, grenade, run, grenade, run, run, run" strategy. Much braver but doomed to fail 90% of the time.

Actually you can run around the frist rancor and take pot shots at it from the next room. But it takes forever.

Or....you give the sythisized odor and a grenade to the corpse in the room and kill the rancor with 1 grenade with no risk :p

I'll fight a rancor with a frying pan and one hand tied behind my back.

Technically u should win on mission's first attack since she rolls a grenade over, which was what kills the rancor according to kotor storyline
