Trollstav only fights for you in the loosest sense, because the troll it summons swings at everything within reach, you included. You pay for it with Charred Bone and a Bloodstone from the Ashlands, and a trophy from a Black Forest Troll gives it its shape. Each cast drops a fiery meteor that deals 100 chop, 100 pickaxe and 300 fire damage, 500 across all types, which is the highest total damage of any magic staff in the game. Fire damage hurts the Abomination, Bat and Bear more than most things, and that is the reason to carry it. It is a summoning staff: casting it raises a Troll that attacks every creature nearby, and the fire, chop and pickaxe figures in the tables belong to the meteor it arrives in.
How to Craft
Made at a level 2 Galdr Table from:
- 15x Charred Bone: Dropped by the Charred in the Ashlands.
- 1x Troll Trophy: Dropped by the Troll.
- 3x Flametal: Smelted from Flametal Ore in a Blast Furnace.
- 1x Bloodstone: Found in the Charred Fortresses of the Ashlands.

Upgrades
You can upgrade it 3 times after crafting, and each level needs the station built one step higher than the last. Every other figure on this page is for quality 1, so your own copy sits somewhere on this ladder:
| Quality | Crafting Station | Fire | Chop | Pickaxe | Pure | Durability | Resources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Galdr table (Level 2) | 300 | 100 | 100 | 50 | 200 |
|
| 2 | Galdr table (Level 3) | 300 | 100 | 100 | 50 | 250 |
|
| 3 | Galdr table (Level 4) | 300 | 100 | 100 | 50 | 300 |
|
| 4 | Galdr table (Level 5) | 300 | 100 | 100 | 40 | 350 |

Properties
The Troll has 2,000 health, more than any other summon in the game. It swings for blunt, chop and pickaxe damage, slams the ground with its own area of effect, and throws a stone at anything out of reach.
Each cast costs 120 Eitr and 60% of your current health, the most expensive cast in the game on both counts. Because the cost is a share of your current health rather than your maximum, it cannot kill you, but it does leave you at 40% in the Ashlands.
That is why it pairs with the Staff of Protection. Summon first, then put a barrier on yourself. The cast that drops you to 40% health and the cast that makes you unkillable for a few seconds belong on the same hotbar.
Notes
- Every upgrade level needs a Troll Trophy and a Bloodstone, so upgrading is gated on Charred Fortress drops rather than on metal.
