@@WhaleKill3r that was recently patched and bosses will now fight trolls

@@gamecreatorc They really don’t need to patch this mechanic out. I’m glad they are keeping it!

That is a nice trick I'll have to use sometime. Mistlands did add some alternative methods for mining copper and iron but they seem kind of slow. The trollstav will definitely speed things up!

I have not tested the current PTB but before ashlands official release you could not mine flametal with trollstav. They are trying out making it so that flametal no longer sinks and that may affect the hitboxes so I'll have to test again.

The primary use I have found for the trollstav in combat is as a big damage sponge. It will attract a lot of the enemies and keep them occupied while you use ranged attacks to thin them out. I normally run a light armor build with a greatsword or the axes.

Do they take out the effigy/spawners as well?

@@n8exe565 when you spawn in the troll it come crashing down like a meteor, it could propably smash up the spawner like that. Doubt they will directly target the spawners, but if an enemy mob stands close enough the spawner would propably be damaged atleast if not broken.

I don't think they increase blood magic from what I've seen in the ptb. Blood magic is easy to level with the dead raiser and a greydwarf or drauger spawner.

maybe also even a 2 star troll vs one they seem almost even in damage

The trolls do a great job at melting the queen.

Valheim

Valheim, my favorite survival game.

Base defense may be a great idea. They seem to persist as long as you don't summon more in the vicinity. I spawned a couple in the Queen's boss arena and they persisted whenever I came back.

@@n8exe565 I’ve actually found another really good use for them recently. You can walk straight up to a fortress wall in the Ashlands and summon them. They seem to spawn a fixed distance from where you’re standing. They land right into the fort and attack everything. You can break the spawners with the meteor impact too.

I'm sure these would be busted in pvp!

As far as I can tell nothing changes. I also don't know how the bloodmagic skill affects the troll's health and damage.

lol good eye!

Yep! I'm thankful that I decided to not test it out in my castle base. Could have gone very poorly!

Hopefully not!

This is one biome away from the last collecting resources in the second and fourth biomes. If they nerf it it's major unfun.

@@ZarHakkar Yeah they also work for collecting black metal since they can take out the whole village. I've tried it on flametal but it hasn't seemed to work. I wonder if you could take out a whole skull of soft tissue with one summon.

@@n8exe565is that because the metal is too strong or another reason?

@@geeun9154 I am not sure. That was during the PTB and it may have changed since then.

Thanks! It’s super useful for other types of stone as well

Yes they are hostile to everything except other summoned trolls. I like the idea though, its a very unique necromancy.

@@n8exe565 I wonder how many people found that out the hard way...

I got lucky and decided to test the staff outside my base instead of inside. I can't wait to see people dying to the trolls lol

@@n8exe565 I'm sure we'll see many posts about "my base after trying out the new Ashlands staff"

I knew they were hostile to everything but I thought they prioritized pretty much everything else over the player... Looked more like they targeted the Player over the Mobs.

Just run around with the staff of protection and you should be fine even in Ashlands!

Thank you <3

lemme see your bronze montage

​@@n8exe565 holy roasted

Thanks
