In the room just before the Rancor, you will notice a dismembered arm. Search the arm, and you will receive an item (synthesized scent) that is supposed to lure the Rancor. Go into the Rancor room, approach the corpse pile, and search it. Take all the items. Search it again, then press X to enter "give" mode. Put in one frag grenade and one of the synthesized scents obtained from the dismembered arm. Exit the item screen. The Rancor will approach the corpse pile, eat it, and explode. This saves you from fighting, keeps your health, gives you more experience points, and also saves you four or five grenades. Take Mission to the doorway. Go into solo mode and use her stealth ability. Walk to the pile of bones in middle of room. Take the things in the pile. Access the now empty pile and drop the odor (obtained in the same area) and one frag grenade in. An intermission sequence will begin. The monster will approach the pile, eat the grenade, and die. Search the severed arm just outside the door to the Rancor's lair to get three vials of synthesized scent. If you have only one frag grenade, run carefully to the corpse pile and take all the items there. If you do not approach the Rancor, he will stay back and not attack, even though he is shown as an enemy. After looting the pile, switch to "Give Items". Place one frag grenade in the pile, then one vial of synthesized scent. You will be treated to an intermission sequence showing the Rancor's demise, and an easy 200 experience points. If you have a few frag grenades, you can easily use them to kill the Rancor. Walk towards it, and as soon as it highlights as an enemy, throw a frag grenade. Then, immediately turn and run back into the doorway you just came from. The Rancor will be unable to follow you, and after suffering 20 damage, will walk back to its starting location. Save the game and repeat to kill the Rancor for 700 experience points. Five or six frag grenades should be sufficient, especially if you save and reload to ensure that each grenade does the full 20 damage instead of 10. For added flair, you can rush in and finish the Rancor off with a melee attack once it is almost dead. However, you will be killed if your first swing misses. Hit it with a poison grenade. After it wears off, give him another. It will not kill it, but you can finish it off with a frag grenade.
