==Description==
There is only one Ancient Troll in a entire map- next to [[Signal Tower]].

This creature is related to quest [[Troll Hunt]].

==Tactics==
Good luck. You will need it.

* Bring either a [[Smoke Bomb]] or have the [[Dash]] skill unlocked to avoid the first [[Rock Toss|{{#tip-text:rock throw|{{:Rock Toss}}}}]].
* Try to stay between 0~1 tiles apart from the Troll, to avoid further rock throws.
* The Troll will never [[Deafening Roar|{{#tip-text:roar|{{:Deafening Roar}}}}]] if you're adjacent to it.
* After reaching 75% {{pos|Health}} or below, the Troll will always use his [[Troll Regeneration|{{#tip-text:regeneration|{{:Troll Regeneration}}}}]] when it's off cooldown, unless you're adjacent to it.
* Use a melee strike to interrupt its regeneration.
* After interrupting its regeneration, the Troll will be vulnerable to damage for some time, receiving about 2 times the amount of damage it usually takes.

Alternative tactic require minimum level 8 mage (preferably level 9-10) and is quite a bit easier:
# Get [[Mana Crystal]] spell(Arcanist) and [[Seal of Power]] spell(Magic Mastery), start the fight by placing mana crystal then swap your character and it with [[Dimensional Shift]] to avoid the first [[Rock Toss|{{#tip-text:rock throw|{{:Rock Toss}}}}]]
# Stay at least 2-3 tiles away from Troll and use either [[Jolt]] or [[Fire Barrage]] to deal damage ( note that you have to bring a few Bottles of Oil to the fight if you use the latter, throw them before using the skill)
# After reaching 75% {{pos|Health}} or below, the Troll will always use his [[Troll Regeneration|{{#tip-text:regeneration|{{:Troll Regeneration}}}}]] when it's off cooldown, unless you're adjacent to it.
# Use a melee strike to interrupt its regeneration.
# Use Dimensional shift on Mana Crystall to get away(most likely wont be needing it because most Shockwaves are trivially easy to evade)
N.B. If you have a dash skill with this set up - the fight becomes incredibly easy because the only true damage Troll has is its [[Rock Toss|{{#tip-text:rock throw|{{:Rock Toss}}}}]], all other abilities are easy to evade or deal no damage.

==Possible Loot==
After [[Butchering]] the Ancient Troll, there is a possible drop of:
* 1x [[Troll Pelt]]
* 1x [[Troll Tusks]].

==Interesting Facts==
* One can only guess about the true age of the Ancient Troll, but he is clearly more than 30 years old - the pelt has already acquired remarkable regenerative properties.
* The nature of [[Aldor]] is amazing! A meeting with his [[Young Troll|younger brother]] is often even more dangerous than a boss fight with the Ancient Troll himself.
