Perfect Place to Summon Ogres?

[Daryl]

Well considering The Horn to summon Ogres are unusable in Act 2 and 3.
Its limited to Act 1

Where would you think would be the best place to use it?

a) Goblin Camp - Theres alot of Goblins to fill their bellies.
b) Emerald Grove - Both Tieflings and Druids should be fed to them
c) Githyanki Patrol - LMAO ECKSDEE, Time to steal a "Legendary Githyanki Sword" thats OP AF from Voss.
d) Underdark
e) Others

Never used them at all but I guess the C) would be the go-to choice as many people seem to have issues with them, I guess.

Funny enough, all of those encounters I did with my party and had no trouble whatsoever or hadn't considered using the horn.

No need to worry about using it just once if you can manage to keep them alive, and persuade them to fight for you once more, either by paying them, or by, well, persuading them. If I were to choose though, personally, probably against the Gith Patrol out of those options. Other choice would be the Grymforge in the Underdark when you break free Nere, depending on how you handle that situation. If you don't side with the rebels, or like me, first time in EA not realizing that was an option, fighting Nere and all the Duregar there was difficult, so having the ogres to soak up damage and maybe get a kill or two was very helpful.

You can summon them multiple times if they are kept alive and you either pay or decept them.

Depends how soon you want the circlet of int off the boss ogre which is a powerful item. Goblin camp or grove is fine.

Used them on the Hag, but they ended up killing that girl. Literally kicked her off the ledge into the void. Kinda hoping I find her body in the Underdark or something.

Used them again on the goblins. I coulda used them on the gnolls I guess, or the "paladins". I like them. Shame they wont stick around after Act 1

[phlegmo]

I did it for the hag fight, 2 of them got stuck at spawn and couldn't move. 3rd one did whooping 4 dmg to hag and killed Mayrina

[alex010300]

I used them at A) at the Hobgoblin boss fight, I betrayed them there as well.

[KalDrax]

when I went to act 2 they showed up at camp demanding their gold, so had to kill them

A good alternative to the ogres is the iron flask if you decide to screw over the Zhents. That thing will attack anyone and everyone.

I kept the item for the fight with Ragzlin. They didn't come when I used the item.

So that's what it is? I didn't even get the option, I just ordered the Gnoll lady to leave me alone, and she went inside the cave and killed them. I didn't tell her to do that.

helped me kill queen spider.

Typically I find the best place to use them is the goblin camp.

For the hag fight you don't want to use them because they will kill mayrina.

They weren't kidding when they said "ogres kill everyone around".

If there are any "friendly" npcs around when you summon them, they will attack them too, not just your enemies.

You also don't need them for the gnoll cave fight because you can just convince the boss gnoll to kill all the other ones.

I always choose the goblin camp because they make good distractions for all the goblins and they kill most of them with one hit.

Just gotta be careful to make sure that volo is already out of the area or they will attack him too.

I had one fight where volo had already gone invisible right next to an ogre, then for some reason VOLO ATTACKED THE OGRE BARE HANDED and got pulled out of invisibility.

Then the ogre smashed him in one hit.

Anyway, yeah, so long as volo is gone, and you have good persuasion or deception, I use the ogres to clear a bunch of the places inside the goblin camp because there are nothing but enemies there.

If they survive all the goblins outside, then I take them inside to clear out the big main room and also help on the boss fights if they are still alive after that.

[Muhspaceaids]

Us it every fight after you get the horn lol. You can just repay them to do it again.

OGRE ONSLAUGHT ON ACT !
