Grog the Troll, invincible or just OP?

[Justin_760]

So Ive encountered Grog. He has like 7,000 HP and his HP completely regenerates at the start of each new turn. Ive tried freezing and stunning to prevent him from ever getting a turn to act, but it appears the ability "troll blood" is passive and requires no action on the AI's part to work.

Anyone figured out how to kill him? At first thought I could teleport him off the bridge but he cant be moved, tried every status effect spell I have to negate troll blood, to no effect. Im pretty sure theres some unique item or spell for this, similar to that giant guy in snowland you have to kill with a special wand, in the first DOS. Any tips would be appreciated. Also, I know this game is new but jeez, there isnt a single walkthrough or wiki with anything past the early access content. I have yet to find anything for any quest or enemy like this, strange that its taking so long for anything to come out for this game. Makes me think it wasnt real popular at launch.

Two very very easy solutions.

necro fire... there's cused blood next to him. Necro fire should remove his heal, and he takes double damage from fire.
Forced exchange - polymorph skill, swaps health % between caster and target. Before the fight, smash your polymorpher down to minimal hp, open with forced exchange, hit him once or twice, done.

Takes only 1 shot and he dies. Use transform terrain on the lava in the ruins below witch alice. Port the lava over and over until you get it on Grog. He dies instantly. Marg is just as easy, just plop open a couple of poison barrels on the bridge, stay out of sight and he dies just by patroling the bridge.

Trolls were an easy puzzle to solve.

brace urself for the "YOU USE CHEESE" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ incoming

[Flea Blorg]

if you just examine him it shows he has a -100 and something percentage resistance to fire

[Ccrack]

there is a ghost on one of the bridges that tells you about trolls

each troll has a single elemental weakness that removes their regeneration aswell. its just a matter of using examine then coating the entire bridge in whatever they are weak to

[Grave Knight]

I just set him on fire and beat him down. I think I lost my necro-rogue but that's about it. Kept him stun locked.

I want more trolls in this game

Try decay. It would turn his self heal into auto kill.

Actually thats wrong, that was the first thing I tried and he is immune.

I killed him in 1 turn with 2 lonewolf stacking physical armour and casting shackles of pain, stacking deathwish, then casting reactive armour with 75% spell crit, I respecced using the mirror to do it though, also necrofire removes his troll blood.

How on earth did you manage to cast all that crap, let alone do any attacks in one turn?

[Grumpy Old Guy]

He has no magic armor, just use charm arrows at the end of every turn and he never gets to go. Pretty easy to kill him. I did it with 2 lone wolves on my first try at level 13 in tactician mode.

[Dissodant]

all three trolls encountered arent really difficult, they are stopgaps to see if players understand game mechanics. examine them, whichever resist is the lowest the status effect linked to that element is their weakness. it will literally tell you in books as well (the crushed elf and ghost right next to the troll in question).

Very easy method. Move the nearby green noxious bulb on the bridge, shoot arrow on the bulb with archer, ignite with fire mage. Grog will catch fire but won’t attack. Rinse and repeat.

You need to initiate combat before he does though, I believe? I used a similar method for Marg, who I initially was going to spare but then reconsidered with all the carnage around the bridge.

Or just teleport some lava under him. Odly enough it won't kill him, but it will make it so that you kill him your next turn.

[Cosmic Cat]

I didn't even have to stop their regeneration with my cleric. I stacked retribution and lots of constitution/high armount of armour - then all you do is click end turn and wait for them to one-shot themselves with a crit (which happens fairly often).

Use

Charm
Decay
Fire attacks
Hail storm/things that can freeze him

If you think this guy is hard then you will have a lot of fun in the next act
