A stooped troll with dark skin, the cave-dwelling deep troll often travels in packs.

“Buckshank bold and Elfinstone,
And more than I can mention here,
They caused to be built so stout a ship,
And unto Iceland they would steer.

They launched the ship upon the main,
Which bellowed like a wrathful bear;
Down to the bottom the vessel sank,
A laidly Trold has dragged it there.”
-George Borrow, _Lavengro: The Scholar, the Gypsy, the Priest_. 1851.

Useful Info

Deep trolls are an advanced type of troll that usually roam in packs. While weaker than iron trolls, they can deal significant damage as a pack, and they'll usually come with magical support. They are commonly found in the Vaults (accompanied by ironbound preservers) and the Depths (accompanied by deep troll earth mages and deep troll shamans).

Tips & Tricks

  • Their numbers are their only unique trait. Fight them in corridors, or at least avoid being surrounded. If there's a deep troll earth mage present, however, don't expect rock walls to be much use in funneling opponents. Area-of-effect attacks are nice to have.
  • Deep troll shamans can Haste Other and Might Other. Even a single deep troll can be dangerous, if it's hasted and mighted.

Variant Deep Troll

Deep troll monk ghost.png The ghosts of deep troll monks will occasionally coalesce as you explore Wucad Mu's Monastery.
