Ok, the big a$$ group outside droknars. I kill them in one shot but then there are 2 troll bosses if you keep going on. Is it worth killing those bosses for drops or not? It takes a while longer for me, but if the drops are good, I'll kill em'. I tried once but they didn't drop anything great.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with these 2 guys and if it is worth the effort. Thanks guys.

Drops are same as all regular trolls they are just harder to kill and a more of a pain, IMO I pass by the 2 bosses and do some tengu and tundra giant farming.

Also if you kill a boss you get Morale Boost which messes with the whole 55hp thing.

skip bosses, take a left and continue up that path and do tundra giants.

Theres another large group of trolls you can farm above camp rankor. You just have to run to it. Theres a ton of trolls and griffens! You may like it more. 1 boss that you should just skip.

When I was killing them, I got a lot of rare scroll. But yes, it take much longer to kill them.

Yeah i always seem to get a rare scroll from the warrior boss everytime i lvl and gain a skill point. As for killing them the warrior is fast to kill for me he is dead about half way into 2nd soj. The ranger ive never seemed to kill with 55. With my warrior i cant remember him dropping anything good though.

I farm Trolls with a none 55 build wich it faster then 55 with SoJ
The only thing u need is one factions skill,

The credits go 2 Legless Elf, wich was his idea 2 farm this way and i changed the build a bit. Still his build is faster but mine is safer

her u go:

Spirit Bond( the factions skill wich u need 2 refresh everytime its recharges and u need Hp from DF
Blessed Signet for energy,
SoJ
Balthazars Spirit
Essence Bond
Blessed Aura
Life Attune
Retribution

U got 5 enchants, and so u use Blessed sig over time 2 get energy and keep up that enchant that u lose.

Gear.

ive got a Kepkhet's Refuge wich works great here, but and Ivors staff will do 2
Get ure ARMOR from Piken Square, this may sound stupid but the trolls do over 60 dmg so whenever u get dmged u get healed for 110+ so u will lose only life by getting dmg below 60

Soj and Retribution do around 60 dmg for each atttack back wich kills the trolls fast!
